Eric Clapton - Meanwhile

 

Eric Clapton — Meanwhile

Limited edition gold colored vinyl double LP

Features six never-before-heard tracks!

Includes collaborations with Jeff Beck, Van Morrison and others

"Back with his signature sizzled-up guitar tones and spliced-in dreamy acoustic ballads, he once again shows why the phrase 'Clapton is God' was penned in the first place." — Vincent Pozzolano, Cryptic Rock

Eric Clapton's brand-new record, Meanwhile features six never-before-heard tracks and eight previously released singles. This album includes collaborations with Jeff Beck, Van Morrison and more. Clapton is back at the forefront of blues rock with Meanwhile, released October 4, 2024. Celebrating his career with a blend of introspective themes and classic blues arrangements, and sounding strong as ever, Meanwhile hits Clapton's wheelhouse. It showcases Clapton in a relaxed state, one that could only be achieved by a lifetime spent mastering one's craft, and focusing on more introspective and contemplative numbers.

Clapton requires very little introduction. Widely regarded as one of the greatest names in popular music, Clapton's influence stretches across blues, rock, and beyond. His career spans more than six decades, during which he has achieved tremendous success both as a solo artist and as a member of legendary bands like The Yardbirds, Cream and Derek and the Dominos.

Needless to say, the man has nothing left to prove. Still, It's always a pleasure to hear a new Clapton album and dwell in the warm familiarity of his late-career laidback stylings.
