Slowhand album Product Description
The opening number was by J.J. Cale, whose "After Midnight" had been one of the real joys of the guitarist's first solo excursion, ERIC CLAPTON. "Cocaine," with its slow grinding beat, menacing melodic vamp and one-step from perdition lyrics, was the toughest, most rocking number on SLOWHAND, and a major radio hit from the outset. A couple of vocal duets with countryish harmonies set the tone for the rest of SLOWHAND. "Lay Down Sally" was a funky, chicken-fried bit of boogie with a taut, melodic aside from Clapton's twangy Stratocaster, while Don Williams' sweet, soulful "We're All The Way" provided a low-key vehicle for Clapton's tender vocal exchanges with Marcy Levy, as his understated arpeggios toll away in the background. SLOWHAND was the album which defined the new cool of Eric Clapton, a sultry, laid-back mix of rock and blues, with a heavy dose of country and southwestern regional sounds to leaven the blend. After LAYLA, SLOWHAND was probably Clapton's most popular, fully realized solo disc. ...See Full Description

| E.C. at his best Slowhand is the disc to have to enjoy Eric Clapton before his "renewal" of is roots. The SACD Hybrid is crisp and clean. All of the tracks are solid, but "The Core" really kicks. By denngeorge (Rome, NY, USA)  |
| SACD Surround Sound Fine recording, most are already familiar with. Although the ad info lists it as stereo, the SACD layer does contain a surround mix. It is a subtle mix but, nonetheless, a surround mix. By Gregory (Raymore, Mo, USA) |
| Slowhad It is a great album from a great artist. When it was released in 1977 it became a monument of rock music. To me it is one of the best albums ever. Torgrim By torgrim (Oslo Norway) |
