A fusion of mature blues feel and sophisticated sound.
This is the perfection Eric Clapton achieved in the late '80s. A masterpiece that combines blues and pop to create a solid, heavy sound.
Featuring hits like "Pretending" and "Bad Love," this album finds Eric Clapton striking the perfect balance between blues and pop. The album features sophisticated arrangements, crystalline guitar tones, and deeply moving vocals. Russ Titelman's production adds depth to the sound, and contributions from Robert Cray and Phil Collins add depth to the album. This is a mature album that exudes calm and ease.
