Eric Clapton – Journeyman (2 LPs)

Re-mastered from the original analog master tapes

Although the slick production of most of Clapton’s ’80s work is evident, his passion is far from lacking. “Running On Faith” finds Slowhand looking deep inside himself as a gospel choir chimes away in the background. On Ray Charles’ “Hard Times” Clapton reminds listeners that heartache is around the corner. The sweet nothings whispered in “Lead Me On” are made that much sweeter by the harmonies of Cecil and Linda Womack. E.C. also manages to have a ball with a shuffling “Hound Dog” and a rollicking take on Bo Diddley’s “Before You Accuse Me.”
