With a Little Help From My Friends

Eric Clapton

Gritty, mid-sixties British blues captured with raw basement energy. A snapshot of young guitar masters finding their voice through American roots music.

It's Clapton before he was a god, just a kid in a basement playing the blues like his life depended on it.

A raw and unpolished celebration of electric blues played with youthful, high-voltage intensity.

Moments Worth Waiting For
The stinging, overdriven lead break on Snake Drive that previews the future of heavy rock.
The loose, almost conversational interplay between the guitar and harmonica on Little Red Rooster.
The frantic, high-speed rhythmic chug of Train Kept a-Rollin' that feels like it might derail.
