Eric Clapton is one white boy who can really bring the raw blues straight out of the deep South. No tricks or frills here, just gutsy and powerful blues. Clapton goes way back to his roots (to the cradle)and rips off some great blues. If you're looking for smooth blues, polished up in the sound room, buy Clapton's more commercially successful "Me and Mr. Johnson." But if you want to hear ow he got there...put on your Bose headphones, turn it up, and sink into the Mississippi Delta -- raw blues!!
Great Cd for the blues lover, the live tracks have fine fidelity! My favorite was "Reconsider Baby". It should be in every Clapton collection.

Excellent CD, anyone curious about Blues Music should add it to their collection, also a must for any Clapton fan! The recordings are a tribute to the Original Artists' recordings, and not so much of Clapton making them his own, the respect is admirable!

If you've never heard Clapton then you live on another planet where there is no access to Earth media. While he is certainly NOT the God he was once touted to be, he is, without doubt, one of the finest practioners of the blues around right now and has been for many years. This album, 'From the Cradle', finds Eric in excellent form both vocally and instrumentally. He is backed by a crack group of musicians. This is an excellent album and a must have for 'Blues aficionados' (hey...did I spell that right? Yes I did). BlueRick at BlueRick.com blues u can use
