EricClapton was always enamored with The Band, whose Music From Big Pink played a large role in the dissolution of Cream and inspired the direction of his subsequent solo career.
Clapton also picked excellent sidemen (and longtime associates) such as drummer Jim Keltner, keyboardist Chris Stainton (who shines throughout the album), guitarist Andy Fairweather Low, and harp player Jerry Portnoy (the album's most prominent sideman along with Stainton), thereby ensuring that all of the performances are typically classy and tasteful.
After a disappointing duet album with B.B. King (2000's Riding With The King) and a forgettable follow up to Pilgrim (2001's Reptile, which is most notable for the appearance of The Impressions on backing vocals), EricClapton retrenched and returned to his first and dearest love, the blues.
By the time EricClapton launched his solo career with the release of his self-titled debut album in mid-1970, he was long established as one of the world's major rock stars
Clapton was largely inactive in 1971 and 1972, due to heroin addiction, but he performed a comeback concert at the Rainbow Theatre in London on January 13, 1973, resulting in the albumEricClapton's Rainbow Concert (September 1973).
Clapton's popularity waned somewhat in the first half of the '80s, as the albums Money and Cigarettes (February 1983), Behind the Sun (March 1985), and August (November 1986) indicated a certain career stasis.
