Clapton's Grand Return!,
By Martin A Hogan "Marty From SF" (San Francisco, CA. (Hercules)) - See all my reviews (TOP 100 REVIEWER) (REAL NAME)
This review is from: 461 Ocean Boulevard (Dts) (DVD Audio)
After an absence due to personal problems, Clapton settled into the 461 Ocean Boulevard Florida estate to restart his career. It was a major turning point. His heady rock attitude was adapting to a mellower R & B with a tad more funkiness. "Motherless Children", ""Willie And The Hand Jive" and "Mainline Florida" brought out the best gut bouncing rhythm and blues yet. Jump-started with the Bob Marley single, "I Shot The Sheriff", Clapton gained back his old audience while bringing in new fans to the new blue-eyed soul in the USA. He included some nearly spiritual numbers as well. ""Please Be With Me" is a begging love ballad and "Let It Grow" culminates with the frenzy of a soaring synthesizer. Yvonne Elliman does a fantastic back-up job with her own sultry vocals and accentuates Clapton's soulful voice. Still considered one of Clapton's best, you can't miss with this one, especially in DTS Surround Sound.

The Best of '70s Clapton!,
By
This review is from: 461 Ocean Boulevard (Audio CD)
In stark contrast with his unimpressive self-titled solo debut, "461 Ocean Boulevard" is a classic from start to finish. From the mellow blues of "Motherless Children," to the funky riff of "Willie and the Hand Jive," to the classic rock staple "Mainline Florida," this is '70s Clapton at his best and the place to start for the casual fan.
