They're each very limited in their pressings and disappear with extraordinary quickness from the vinyl market. This causes prices to skyrocket because once they are gone, they are gone forever! Don't second-guess yourself with this chance to upgrade your collection because before you know it, the opportunity will have passed forever.

Clapton joined The Yardbirds in 1963 and quickly developed a big reputation for his guitar ability and style. In 1965 he joined Mayall's band, and their album of the following year Bluesbreakers with Eric Clapton is widely hailed as a classic of its style. A famous photograph of a piece of London graffiti summed up the reaction of fans: it read "Clapton Is God". In 1966 he formed Cream with Jack Bruce and Ginger Baker. For the two-and-a-bit years that they existed, Cream were a massive worldwide success, selling out tours wherever they went and selling millions of albums. Clapton developed as a songwriter for classic records such as Disraeli Gears (1967) and Wheels of Fire (1968), both of which were inspirational to Led Zeppelin and the other hard rock and metal acts that followed.

After Cream broke up in 1968, Clapton's next project was Blind Faith, formed with Baker, Steve Winwood and Rick Grech. They toured to massive crowds and released one self-titled album, before splitting. Clapton released an eponymous solo album and spent 1970 guesting on albums by others, including All Things Must Pass by close friend George Harrison. He then formed Derek and the Dominos, and released Layla and Other Assorted Love Songs. It was met with a mixed reception but has since been reappraised as a classic. It features the lead single "Layla", which includes one of the most famous guitar riffs ever written.

During this period Clapton declined into depression, worsened by a serious heroin habit, the deaths of close friend Jimi Hendrix and band-mate Duane Allman, and the poor initial response to the Layla album. Derek and the Dominos gave up halfway through recording a second album, and Clapton retreated from public view. He only came out to perform at Harrison's 1971 Concert for Bangladesh (during which he passed out on-stage), before The Who's Pete Townshend organised a comeback gig for him, later released as the Rainbow Concert (1973). His first album after kicking the heroin habit, 461 Ocean Boulevard (1974), was a big hit with critics and the public, and included a hit cover of Bob Marley's "I Shot the Sheriff". Subsequent albums were low-key, but Slowhand (1977) featured two big singles: "Wonderful Tonight" and "Cocaine".

In 1992, there was a re-emergence in Clapton's commercial fortunes, brought about by deep personal tragedy. His four year old son Conor died after falling out of a high-rise window in New York. The sorrowful song Clapton wrote about it, "Tears in Heaven", was a worldwide smash, and won three Grammy Awards. It was included on the Unplugged live album, which was widely acclaimed.

ERIC CLAPTON - CHRONICLES - THE BEST OF ERIC CLAPTON - EUROPEAN PRESSING - 1999 RELEASE - LONG OUT OF PRINT 2 LP SET - If this were your first exposure to Eric Clapton, a bit of bewilderment would be in order. This is the legendary guitar icon? This is (as his early apostles once proclaimed) God? Ranging from the mid-'80s through the late '90s, The Clapton Chronicles owes less to the groundbreaking blues-rock of Clapton's '60s and '70s classics than to the polished-to-a-glare pop of PHIL COLLINS, who produced one of the tracks included in this 15-song anthology. His reinterpretation of his BEST OF--the once-gripping, now-placid "Layla"--perhaps best illustrates Clapton at middle-age: Who wants to bask in his darkest period? Not Clapton, who converts his surging, purging charge into a soothing stroll. And perhaps not fans of such docile MOR fare as "My Father's Eyes," "Tears in Heaven," and the two new tracks, "Blue Eyes Blue" and "Get Lost."
