THE CREAM OF CLAPTON includes songs released between 1966 and 1981 by Cream, Blind Faith, Derek And The Dominos and Eric Clapton as a solo performer.

If you only have the funds or shelf space to own one Eric Clapton album, THE CREAM OF ERIC CLAPTON is the one to get. Featuring 19 songs that span from Cream's 1966 hit "I Feel Free" to Clapton's 1981 single, "I Can't Stand It," this ample collection of career highlights from the legendary English guitarist is essential classic rock. The album opens with five tracks by Cream, the psychedelic-blues power trio that Clapton led in the sixties. The heavy riff-rocker "Sunshine of Your Love" and "Badge," his 1968 collaboration with Beatle George Harrison, feature some of his best playing ever.

Clapton's post-Cream bands, Blind Faith and Derek and the Dominos (his 1970 supergroup with Duane Allman) are also represented with such remarkable blues-rock performances as "Presence of the Lord," Bell Bottom Blues" and the timeless rock classic, "Layla." The remainder of the album is devoted to Clapton's seventies solo hits like "After Midnight," I Shot The Sheriff," "Cocaine" and "Wonderful Tonight." Though this collection does not include latter-day Clapton hits like "Tears in Heaven," it's safe to say that the spectacular performances on this album are truly THE CREAM OF ERIC CLAPTON.

Includes liner notes by Ray Coleman.

Digitally remastered by Joseph M. Palmaccio.

Includes 19 Classic Recordings 79 Mins.Of Music.

Personnel includes: Eric Clapton (vocals, guitar).

Producers include: Robert Stigwood, Felix Pappalardi, Jimmy Miller, Delaney Bramlett, Tom Dowd.

Compilation producers: Chris Griffin, Bill Levenson, George McManus.Entertainment Weekly (3/10/95, p.69) - "...These 19 tracks from '66 to '81 cover the high points of his defining work with Cream, Blind Faith, Derek & the Dominos, and alone. They also show how far an average voice, an exorcistic guitar, and blues-on-acid rock can take you..." - Rating: Ao

5 stars "Slowhand" is the best
I'm so glad I picked this collection. All hits are here. from his time in Cream, Blind faith, Derek and the Dominoes. Up to his solo career. All his songs rock, and I am excited to have this compilation in my posession. Hope you have the opportunity to enjoy it too.

5 stars "Clapton Is God"
I have heard "White Room" countless times and it has not yet lost its psychedelic taste. Clapton is an incredible musician and an unbeatable blues guitarist (along with B.B. King). This CD will not disappoint those who respect the blues power of Slowhand.

Eric Clapton Unplugged CD  (1992)

Cream Of Clapton
CD $10.85  5 stars Top 100 Audio Samples Definitive Album
Eric Clapton's live performance on MTV's strip-down-the-rockers show allowed the heavily-blues-influenced guitarist a chance to show off another, underrated side of his talent--his voice. It's especially interesting to hear Clapton in an acoustic setting, because he made his mark as one of the early proponents of high-decibel rock. Here, sorting through numerous blues standards by the likes of Robert Johnson and Leadbelly, Clapton gives a lesson in technique, style and musical passion. His own, newer material allows him to stretch and play, while the heavily-grooved, slowed-down remake of his classic ...

Cream Of Clapton
CD $12.59  4.5 stars Top 100 Audio Samples Definitive Album
DARK SIDE OF THE MOON was a benchmark record. It turned the musical world on its ear with a hitherto unseen combination of sounds, and changed things considerably for Pink Floyd. For this project, Pink Floyd resurrected older and unfinished numbers, some of which came from the multitude of soundtracks the band members had previously worked on. The film ZABRISKIE POINT, a study of American materialism from a foreigner's perspective, provided "Us and Them" (originally titled "The Violence Sequence"). Waters rewrote "Breathe" after its appearance on his and avant-garde composer Ron Geesin's score for THE BODY, a surreal medical documentary. Floyd and their long-time engineer, Alan Parsons, used a multitude of sound effects--from stereophonically projected footsteps and planes flying ...

Cream Of Clapton
CD $29.15  4.5 stars Top 100 Audio Samples Definitive Album
The second half of the set--in addition to its phenomenal songs-- is interesting in that it charts the Beatles' move from straightforward pop toward the new chapter of rock the band would help script in the late '60s. After the expansive chords and slinky melodies of "Ticket to Ride," the band becomes alternately darkly introspective ("Yesterday") and looser and more groove-obsessed ("Drive My Car"), while trying on allegorical Dylan-inspired narratives ("Norwegian Wood (This Bird Has Flown)"), and happy-go-luck psychedelia ("Yellow Submarine"). These songs are part of our living, breathing cultural identity, and--as this collection reminds us--for good ...
