Another Ticket (Vinyl Replica CD)
* Prices displayed are in Australian Dollars and, where applicable, GST inclusive
Description:
Personnel: Eric Clapton, Albert Lee (vocals, guitar); Gary Brooker (vocals, keyboards); Chris Stainton (keyboards); Dave Markee (bass); Henry Spinetti (drums, percussion). All tracks have been digitally remastered. On Eric Clapton's last studio album for RSO Records, he re-teamed with producer Tom Dowd on a record that found the talented guitarist writing the words and music for most of the material. Dedicated to recently deceased Domino/bandmate Carl Radle, ANOTHER TICKET found Clapton backed by most of the band he'd toured with in Japan (where the live JUST ONE NIGHT was recorded) including the nimble-fingered Albert Lee and keyboardist Chris Stainton. Tipping his hat to the blues, Slowhand interprets Muddy Waters ("Blow Wind Blow") and Sleepy John Estes ("Floating Bridge"). The only other cover Clapton included was by country songwriters Troy Seals and Eddie Setser ("Black Rose"). As for his own material, Clapton's only dabbling with the mellow singer-songwriter image he'd cultivated in the '70s is found in "Something Special." Elsewhere, the guitar hero delves into lite funk ("Catch Me If You Can," co-written with Procul Harum's Gary Brooker, who also played on the album), borderline fusion ("Rita Mae") and pop both catchy ("I Can't Stand It") and frothy (the title track).
