    Episode 6 - Happy 45th Birthday Slowhand

    I have finally got to episode 6! In this solo episode I take a look at Slowhand on its 45th birthday. It is one of the biggest selling albums of Clapton's career and features three of his biggest hits and live staples. I look at each track and consider where it sits in his wider catalogue. It is an album with which I share a close bond but does that make it my favourite solo album? As always I welcome your thoughts through our social channels.

    Episode 4 - Royal Albert Hall and European tour review & Nothing But The Blues preview

    Once again I am joined by Eric Mathews for a review of the recent 2 night RAH run and a look at some of the shows on the European tour. We speculate on whether Eric or his management listened to episode 3 and decided to put Pilgrim back in the set after 24 years! We also discuss the hotly anticipated Nothing But The Blues release due next month - one of the most exciting EC releases for some time.  My thanks as ever to Eric Mathews for his remarkable knowledge of EC setlists and guitars and for the intro music.
