Clapton is the latest legend to pay tribute to a hero—in his case, reclusive Oklahoma native Cale, whose songs “Cocaine” and “After Midnight” the British guitar god turned into hits. Clapton has long admired Cale’s slinky, laid-back style and emulated it on his Slowhand album. Here, the veteran musicians combine on shuffling blues like “It’s Easy” and “Any Way the Wind Blows” and Clapton’s tender “Three Little Girls,” about his young daughters. Together, they fit as comfortably as a pair of well-worn slippers.Reviews
