Joe Bonamassa Forum → Other Artists → Eric Clapton - New Album
Looks as though "Old Sock" will be released in March and looks like a covers album. He has been playing some of them live if I remember correctly.
Track Listing:
1. Further On Down The Road
2. Angel
3. Every Little Thing
4. The Folks Who Live On The Hill
5. Born To Lose
6. Till Your Well Runs Dry
7. All Of Me
8. Still Got The Blues
9. Goodnight Irene
10. Gotta Get Over
11. Your One And Only Man
12. Our Love Is Here To Stay
The album cover is the least flattering yet.... Old Sock?
See the cover here...

I am looking forward to seeing him at the Nashville and Pittsburgh shows
Nice. Be getting this for sure!
Its interesting that he is doing this on his own label.
Another artist not happy with Warner Bros. I suppose. Good for Eric!
I still can't get over the cover. THey should have called it "Old Fart". I still can hardly believe he approved that.
The cover doesn't even look like Clapton to me, at all...kinda' strange, I honestly wouldn't know it was him if the name wasn't there.

He must have been going for the tropical beach bum vibe?
Yes, I never would have recognized him either - - must have had worlds better photo selections... :fp

He played an acoustic version of Gary Moore's 'Still Got The Blues' on his last solo tour in 2011. As well as performing 'Further On Up The Road' with Joe at the RAH in 2009, but otherwise he hasn't performed any of these songs in recent years as far as I'm aware of or at any shows I've attended in the UK/
Every Little Thing and Get On Over are reportedly new songs.
Hope he will be adding more shows soon!
Oh my... Fender is releasing Brownie the "Layla Guitar"... total of 100. Gotz to have it! I was born in '56
I'm excited to hear this one. Hope it's real good. Can't wait to see him in Dallas on March 19!!
Has he done anything exciting in the last thirty years...?

Apart from Cream at the RAH in 2005?
agreed. Somebody here that knows WTH they're talking about is going to have to tell me it is absolutely kickass before I shell out money. The cover he looks a lot more like Kevin Nealon, poor choice of photos.

Maybe I'm the exception, but I thought that was the most incredibly dull performance I could have witnessed. Zeppelin blew the lid off coming back...
That was more like a slowly deflating balloon.
Where was the power, the groove, the danger of Cream? That was the retirement home. Be it still better than a lot of bands today.
These blues albums he keeps dropping are tiresome.
Plus that cover looks like it was done by The Onion...

I thought it was awful myself. Especially when you saw how Zeppelin did it. But back on track, I'll maybe check out a few tracks if they get uploaded to youtube but that'll be about it.

Named #2 best guitar player of all time by Rolling Stone.

Gives away more money than most of his contemporaries combined.
Grossed 85 million bucks on his 2011 tour.
Took Joe to school at RAH in 2009 at Joe's request.
I could go on...
If that's not exciting enough... check out my youtube channel for lots of Clapton videos from the front row. (Lots of good videos of Joe there too)
Want excitement? Check out his Old Love solo from Nashville or Vegas on my channel. Then check back and tell me your opinion.

Hell, I never would have found Joe if it weren't for Eric. That's exciting right there for me!
Eric is probably one of the most influential blues and rock artist there ever was.
This has always been a favorite when they called him God. Didn't know George co-wrote it.
