Eric Clapton: The Blues in EC

on BBC Radio 1 England

"I didn't want to be in a white rock band, I didn't want to be in a black rock band, I wanted to be in a black blues band."
So says Eric Clapton in this special documentary. Eric spent the first half of 1994 recording live sessions for a new all-blues album, From the Cradle. Once the recordings were finished, Eric talked about the project in an interview with John Pigeon. As well as tracks from From the Cradle, the programme includes such milestones from his career as "Ramblin' on My Mind" from John Mayall 's Blue Breakers, Cream's
"Crossroads" and Derek and the Dominos' "Have
You Ever Loved a Woman?".
