His new Album "I Still Do" is excellent. Great vinyl pressing (45rpm).

Listened to it a few times over the weekend. Definitely in his bluesy mode after his last (JJ Cale tribute) album--in fact, 2 JJ Cale songs on this one. Some good songs here.
 
My copy is noisy between tracks and sounds a little dull on the first side. I haven't played the rest yet. I had high hopes for this LP since it was recorded and cut analog all the way. Looking at the pictures on the LP sleeves, it looks like a Studer A80 16 track deck.
 
I previewed this recording and couldn't get excited about it. It's probably because I have been listening to Clapton since the late 60's when the band was Cream with bassist Jack Bruce, drummer Ginger Baker, and guitarist Eric Clapton. I guess after all these years I have heard enough.
 
Thanks for recommendation. I'm a big fan of EC. I just ordered it. I previewed some songs too and loving it :)

I ordered a copy today. Oh boy....I'm buying too much vinyl. Loving my Modwright phono stage and Transfiguration cartridge.
 
Bought mine today at Barnes and Noble. Listened this past weekend to his Slowhand at 70 - Live at Albert Hall - a very fine LIVE recording, and quiet between passages.
 
My I Still Do album sounds great to me. You can really crank this one up too...unfortunately for me at those levels I can hear the rumble of my old direct drive Denon between tracks...other than that it's about as quiet an album as I've heard in a long time. I wonder if replacing the stock platter mat would help?
