Blues专辑介绍
If this were your first exposure to Eric Clapton, a bit of bewilderment would be in order. This is the legendary guitar icon? This is (as his early apostles once proclaimed) God? Ranging from the mid-´80s through the late ´90s, The Clapton Chronicles owes less to the groundbreaking blues-rock of Clapton´s ´60s and ´70s classics than to the polished-to-a-glare pop of Phil Collins, who produced one of the tracks included in this 14-song anthology. His reinterpretation of his greatest recording--the once-gripping, now-placid "Layla"--perhaps best illustrates Clapton at middle-age: Who wants to bask in his darkest period? Not Clapton, who converts his surging, purging charge into a soothing stroll. And perhaps not fans of such docile MOR fare as "My Father´s Eyes," "Tears in Heaven," and the two new tracks, "Blue Eyes Blue" and "Get Lost."
