Journeyman

Search: Running On Faith
by: Eric Clapton

Release Date December 10, 2008
It was so good to hear this album which I had played to death on vinyl and after about 7 years of not hearing it I was so pleased that it had lost nothing of it's original appeal. I think the thing that appeals to me most is the production of the album which shows what a fantastic producer Russ Titleman is(just listen to Toto albums and you will see what I mean)and that really makes the difference for as much as I love EC I really miss the Titleman touch when you see him live. This album does stand the test of time and stands up very well against recent albums by Eric.

Unplugged

Search: Running On Faith
by: Eric Clapton

Release Date September 03, 2008
The debate whether, when learning to play the guitar, you should begin with an acoustic or an electric instrument, is probably as old as the history of the electric guitar itself; regardless which event you associate most strongly with its invention, and which of the enterprising souls who began experimenting with the amplification of the six-string sound way back in the 1930s you most credit therewith. Many find the sound of an electric guitar more impressive than that of an acoustic; and I'll freely admit that few pieces of music make my inner membranes resonate as instinctively as those featuring a really well-played e-guitar solo. Purists, however, argue passionately in favor of the acoustic guitar, and maintain that you're simply not going ... Read More:

Complete Clapton

Search: Running On Faith
by: Eric Clapton

Release Date October 08, 2007
As I've posted some complaints on Amazon about incompleteness of compilations (missing an artist's best-known track, apparently just to hack people off), I'd like to go the other way on this one.

Obviously this compilation is not "complete". That would require not two CDs but, er, an awful lot of CDs. It is a very fair cross-section of Mr C's career from Cream onwards, charting his emergence as a solo artist, the relative blandness of the early 80s, and his return to form from the late 80s onwards.

To be more comprehensive, it should include the early era as well, i.e. Yardbirds and Mayall. This doesn't bother me, but the blues fans might object. The Cream tracks are a mite superfluous; if you want Cream material, you probably ... Read More:

Trilogy: Money and Cigarettes/August/Journeyman

Search: Running On Faith
by: Eric Clapton

Release Date September 19, 2005
This is a good value purchase - 3 CDs for the price of 1 pretty much. I bought it to replace my tape copy of Journeyman, and was pleased to get the other 2 CDs into the bargain.

Note one thing though - the exterior of the box has the wrong songlisting for Journeyman, it's from a completely different album and is obviously a printing error at the manufacturers, hence the knock down price. Beware if buying as a present. Otherwise can't complain at the price.
