2012 35th Anniversary edition! Eric Clapton has fashioned albums in many different styles and with many different themes, yet few have the sense of oneness that pervades Slowhand. Recorded at the Olympic Studios in South West London in May 1977 and produced by Glyn Johns, the album was the most successful of Clapton's 70s studio recordings. Slowhand features "Wonderful Tonight", "Lay Down Sally" and "Cocaine" - songs that are still heard regularly on radio and at Eric Clapton's live shows. So long after its release is a great recommendation and testimony to its place in Clapton's canon. The album includes cover versions of songs written by some of his favorite songwriters, alongside Clapton's original compositions.
