Music reviews of Martin Scorsese Presents The Blues: Eric Clapton
Music Review: The best of early Eric Clapton
Rating: 5 Stars
This CD basically covers 3 phases of Clapton's career
The first phase would be John Mayall. The second would be Cream and the third would be Derek and the Dominoes.
The first phase includes "All your love" and "Steppin out" both are very solid however, from his Mayall days he does several other songs that are just as worthy. One would he "Hideaway" and another would be "Ramblin on my mind"
Next as I said is his Cream phase. Rollin and Tumblin is a shortened version of Robert Johnson's "If I had possession over Judgement Day" I would recommend the version on "Me and Mr. Johnson much more than I would this one.
I'm so Glad is a Cream anthem and I'm not even sure it is blues. They could have made a better choice here. Like maybe "From four until late" for instance.
There is a song with Howlin' Wolf that to me is not very interesting.
From the Dominoes phase they have picked "Have you ever loved a woman" which to this day could be his finest moment with the blues. He still does it in concert.
"Mean old World" is next and it is with Duane Allman on acoustic slide guitar. I like thie duet a lot.
And finally he does "Crossroads" which to me is good but the Cream version on Wheels of Fire is much better.
This is still a very good blues album. It is for collectors like myself. It is worthy of any blues collection.
