This classic 1977 album featured 3 monster hits: "Cocaine", "Wonderful Tonight", "Lay Down Sally", was ranked in Rolling Stone's "500 Greatest Albums of All Time", and hit #2 on the Billboard Album Charts. Matching Clapton's legendary guitar playing with some of his greatest songwriting, the album is among the best recordings of the legendary musician's career. Everyone needs at least one copy of this classic.

After the guest-star-drenched No Reason to Cry failed to make much of an impact commercially, Eric Clapton returned to using his own band for Slowhand. The difference is substantial – where No Reason to Cry struggled hard to find the right tone, Slowhand opens with the relaxed, bluesy shuffle of J.J. Cale's "Cocaine" and sustains it throughout the course of the album. Alternating between straight blues ("Mean Old Frisco"), country ("Lay Down Sally"), mainstream rock ("Cocaine," "The Core"), and pop ("Wonderful Tonight"), Slowhand doesn't sound schizophrenic because of the band's grasp of the material. This is laid-back virtuosity – although Clapton and his band are never flashy, their playing is masterful and assured. That assurance and the album's eclectic material make Slowhand rank with 461 Ocean Boulevard as Eric Clapton's best albums.
