Riding
With The King
by Eric Clapton and B.B.King |
| It sounds like the beginning
of a story: "So, Slowhand and the King of the Blues were riding in
a car ..." If this is a musical journey, it's the kind that rolls
down long, empty stretches of country highway at 80 miles an hour, with
the top down and the stereo blasting. Clapton and King may be more city
than country, but this collection has the relaxed, laid-back feel that
only comes from a pair of veterans doing what they do best. What they do
here is cover 12 classic blues songs, many of them staples of King's
repertoire, so the title of this album makes sense. Whether it's the
rollicking rock & roll of the title track, or the acoustic shuffle
of "Key to the Highway," or the sweet notes of "When My
Heart Beats Like a Hammer," a real sense of pleasure comes through
on this album, the kind of pleasure one gets from jamming late at night
with a good friend. --Genevieve Williams Click here for Riding With The King more info, audio clips and (very low) price |

by Eric Clapton |
| The 1974 album on which Clapton's solo career truly caught fire, 461 Ocean Boulevard is best remembered for its hit version of Bob Marley's "I Shot the Sheriff"--perhaps the first time many in America ever heard the rhythms of reggae music. But it's also an album on which emotions run high, especially on two Clapton originals, the prayerful "Give Me Strength" and the pleading "Let It Grow." Clapton maintains his grounding in the blues with versions of Robert Johnson's "Steady Rollin' Man" and Elmore James's "I Can't Hold Out"; revisits a rock & roll classic in Johnny Otis's "Willie and the Hand Jive"; and turns the standard "Motherless Children" into a showcase of snarling guitars. Following a period of dark reclusiveness, 461 Ocean Boulevard was a powerful comeback for Clapton.
