THE ERIC CLAPTON REMASTERS Series.
NO REASON TO CRY is the fourth studio album by Eric Clapton, released by RSO Records on 27 August 1976. The album was recorded in Malibu and Los Angeles between December 1975 to May 1976. The record went platinum in the U.K. The album was recorded at The Band's Shangri-la Studios in March 1976. NO REASON TO CRY is one of Clapton's most internationally successful albums from the 1970s. When he gave a speech inducting the Band into the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame, Eric Clapton said that after he heard their debut album, Music From Big Pink, he wanted to join the group, the fact that they already had a guitarist in Robbie Robertson notwithstanding. In the winter of 1975-1976, when he cut NO REASON TO CRY at the Band's Shangri-la Studio in Malibu, California, he came as close as he ever would to realizing that desire. Clapton is a musical chameleon; though some of NO REASON TO CRY is identifiable as the kind of pop/rock Clapton had been making since the start of his solo career (the best of it being "Hello Old Friend," which became his first Top 40 single in two years), the most memorable music on the album occurs when Clapton is collaborating with members of the Band and other guests. He duets with Band bassist Rick Danko on Danko's "All Our Past Times," and with Bob Dylan on Dylan's "Sign Language," as Robertson's distinctive lead guitar is heard rather than Clapton's. As a result, the album is a good purchase for fans of Bob Dylan and the Band, but not necessarily for those of Eric Clapton. (The CD reissue adds a bonus track, "Last Night," which is a traditional 12-bar blues song credited to Clapton.)

In addition to scoring a sizable hit with Hello Old Friend , Clapton carried out some unforgettable collaborations on this 1976 LP: Sign Language (with Bob Dylan and Robbie Robertson) and All Our Past Times (with Rick Danko)! This is not an Eric Clapton album, because he’s buried under a dozen other egos. Nor is it anyone else’s album — they’re buried too. It’s a formula in the truest sense: it always works — which is to say, it’s always professional in its standard of execution — and it always works the same way. There’s no room for risk, because there’s no chance for error — except the biggest one of all, which is to take things so safely. This riskless music is invariably boring — which pretty much sums up this album. NO REASON TO CRY? But only because we’re all so damned grown-up.
