As the '80s drew to a close, Clapton's lifestyle included fraternizing with models and wearing designer suits to go with stylish haircuts. Amid all this jet-setting, Clapton released JOURNEYMAN, an album that found his songwriting involvement limited to cuts co-written with Foreigner's Mick Jones ("Bad Love") and Robert Cray ("Old Love"). Respected producer Russ Titelman twisted knobs as a number of famous guests contributed to the creative process. Old friend George Harrison contributed guitar, harmonies and a song ("Run So Far") while Clapton's band from AUGUST (Greg Phillinganes, Nathan East, Phil Collins) are also present.Although the slick production of most of Clapton's '80s work is evident, his passion is far from lacking. "Running On Faith" finds Slowhand looking deep inside himself as a gospel choir chimes away in the background. On Ray Charles' "Hard Times" Clapton reminds listeners that heartache is around the corner. The sweet nothings whispered in "Lead Me On" are made that much sweeter by the harmonies of Cecil and Linda Womack. E.C. also manages to have a ball with a shuffling "Hound Dog" and a rollicking take on Bo Diddley's "Before You Accuse Me." | |||||||||||||||
Top Reviews  Eric Clapton - Journeyman 31 of 33 people found this review helpful. This is a good offering from Eric Clapton and his band. EC's voice just gets better and better, and on this album his guitar playing is more prominent than on recent albums. A worthy batch of songs sung and played with Eric's usual passion and ability. This is definitely one worth considering for your collection. Recommended. Review ID: 10000000003839432 Was this review helpful?

Brilliant album one of his best. Eric has been in the music for many years and I did have the cassette of the album but wanted the cd version. Best tracks are no alibis, Bad love and running on faith. Review ID: 10000000007326586 Was this review helpful? Report this review Journeyman1 of 1 people found this review helpful.
