Eric Clapton – Nothing But The Blues (2-LP Vinyl)
Product Details
Clapton had been chasing the blues since he left the Yardbirds in 1965, famously walking away because the band was moving too far from its roots. The 1994 "From The Cradle" tour captured him fully in his element, playing to massive arenas while staying ruthlessly committed to Muddy Waters, Freddie King, and Robert Johnson source material that shaped him as a teenager.
Eric Clapton’s lifelong passion for the blues burns brightly inNothing But The Blues. The 2-LP of the soundtrack features 18 previously unreleased live performances recorded in 1994 during the legendary guitarist’s tour supportingFrom The Cradle, his GrammyÒ-winning, multi-platinum blues album.Clapton’s longtime co-producer, Simon Climie, has remixed the audio from those performances from the original multi-tracking recordings. -The previously unreleased live performances onNothing But the Bluesserve as a vital counterpart toFrom The Cradle, which was recorded in the studio. While several songs appear on both (“Motherless Child,” “Standing ’Round Crying,” and “I’m Tore Down”), the performances are entirely different. The release also includes songs that did not appear onFrom the Cradle, including Jimmy Rogers’ “Blues All Day Long” and Robert Johnson’s “Malted Milk,” as well as the standards “Every Day I Have The Blues” and “Forty-Four.”
