Legendary songwriter, vocalist, guitarist and 19-time Grammy Award-winner Eric Clapton will release a brand-new ‘Best Of' compilation, entitled FOREVER MAN, via Reprise Records on April 28th in the U.S. Featuring 51 tracks over three CDs, FOREVER MAN spans three decades of Clapton's Reprise Records years and features classic studio tracks and a Blues-themed disc. The collection traces much of Clapton's career featuring the Grammy Award-winning tracks "Change The World", "Tears In Heaven", "Bad Love" and including materials from Eric's Grammy Award-winning albums From The Cradle and Unplugged. Guest performers include B.B. King and J.J. Cale. The release of FOREVER MAN coincides with an upcoming tour, which includes nine concert dates in celebration of his 70th birthday on March 30th. The shows was took place at New York City's famed Madison Square Garden on May 1st and 2nd and at London's Royal Albert Hall on May 14th, 15th, 17th, 18th, 20th, 21st, and 23rd. The shows featured Clapton, accompanied by his band members Paul Carrack, Steve Gadd, Nathan East, Chris Stainton, Sharon White, and Michelle John, with opening support act Andy Fairweather Low and the Low Riders. The package also comes with liner notes written by noted rock journalist and author Malcolm Dome.
COMPILATION INCLUDES:
CD1- STUDIO;
CD2- LIVE;
CD3- BLUES.
Seven decades of life, five on stage. Eric Clapton, god of the six strings, has made to coincide the release of this triple compilation with a double in the no less than mythical Madison Square Garden to celebrate his birthday and demonstrate that age is merely an accident along the journey. Three enormous discs [fifty songs] with the first part dedicated to studio recordings, another with live performances and the third [the best] monographic with some of the jewels of the blues that have passed through his guitar since 1983 .... Clapton is a simple man. Discrete as could be. His birthday barely had any special guests [Jimmy Vaughan and another few greats and much younger students] and his compilation only includes three: Winwood, J.J. Cale and B.B. King (newly hospitalized at the time of writing). There could be more, obviously, but it would have distorted the reality because behind his hieratic pose away from that artistic temperament the rock stars are used to, he has always been the absolute protagonist behind his instrument, that electric guitar that barely gives way to the sound of an acoustic in a handful of tracks [Layla amongst others] of those included in a collection which is much more than a greatest hits. Perhaps the second CD, the live recording, too predicable, is what comes closest to that definition because, of course, the abridged edition is not recommended… even less if the goal is to learn and because the sacrifice is precisely dedicated to the blues. A luxury that can not be waived. FOREVER MAN recovers from a step in time, the end of the last century, in which Clapton seemed swallowed by history. Probably only the closest with the master know all the tracks of the CD, the studio recordings which went unnoticed, at least for the general public and in which it is almost impossible to find the differences of style when listening to them although among them there may be thirty years of distance. This may be the second major reason for a dip of elegance with an instrumentalist whose technique perhaps is already outdated and an artist who as the title of the album says is "forever."
