Eric Clapton- Journeyman 35th Anniversary 11-4

Unbeknownst to his millions of ardent fans worldwide, Eric Clapton had entered drug rehabilitation around the time of his Live Aid appearance in Summer 1985, and by the end of the decade was completing a trilogy of sobriety albums with Under the Sun, August, and the fully-realized Journeyman in November 1989.

Journeyman contained the strongest collection of songs for Eric Clapton to make his own since Slowhand more than a decade earlier, including “Pretending”, “Bad Love”, “I’d Do Anything for Your Love”, and the sublime “Runnin’ on Faith”, racking up over two million in US sales and copping a Grammy Award. Eric Clapton is my guest In the Studio for the Journeyman thirty-fifth anniversary the week of November 4. -Redbeard
