WARNER REMASTERS Series.
BEHIND THE SUN is the ninth solo studio album by Eric Clapton, released on 11 March 1985 by Duck Records / Warner Bros. Records. It is Clapton's first collaborative project with Phil Collins who co-produced the album and played on some of the tracks. The title of the album comes from a line from Muddy Waters' "Louisiana Blues". Although he is universally considered among the most important figures in rock & roll, Eric Clapton has not had consistent success in translating his stature into record sales, partially because he is, in essence, a great blues guitarist rather than a great pop/rock singer/songwriter. BEHIND THE SUN was not among Clapton's best - although it went gold after nearly two years in release.

Nobody ever said it was easy being God. Nobody ever said it was a gig Eric Clapton even asked for. The man has spent most of his career trying to deny both the implications of the graffiti first splattered all over London almost two decades ago and the magnitude of his gifts. With each post-“Layla” effort, his message became clearer: I’m only human; allow me to fail. After his well-publicized bouts with drugs and a string of lackluster records, Clapton sounded as if he had finally gained control of his life and his music on his last studio album, 1983’s Money And Cigarettes. Perhaps that explains why and how Clapton was persuaded to participate in the slick but inconsistent BEHIND THE SUN, instead of the great comeback he seemed so ready to record. The good news is Clapton’s singing. Even on the perfunctory cover of “Knock On Wood” (a classic song, but he should have saved it for a concert encore and let it appear on the obligatory live album), his voice has a rich new depth, like whiskey aged to perfection. But neither Phil Collins, who produced most of the album, nor Warner Bros. honchos Ted Templeman and Lenny Waronker, who tried to rescue it with three formula “hits,” ever push Clapton to pull one truly memorable moment out of his big old bag of guitar tricks. Perhaps Collins, who is, by any account, a fine singer, an excellent drummer and an inventive producer, was either too awed by Clapton’s stature to make any changes in his songs or had used up all of his best ideas on his many other projects. Maybe he just didn’t have time to finish the job properly. Only on “She’s Waiting” does Collins employ his trademark cannon like drum sound or creative imagination. It’s also possible that, like an outsider stumbling upon a scene of private sorrow, Collins was afraid to intrude or tamper with the material. In contrast to the buoyant mood of Money And Cigarettes, Clapton’s originals on the new album are filled with heartbreak and love’s failure. (While recording BEHIND THE SUN, he temporarily split up with his wife, Patti.)
