The slices of the EC is sometimes a bit tricky: Some one wonders what the master haunted when shooting well, at other pulling the chapeau and pleased. After all, half the stuff is not the master thing. The album "Journeyman" is a whole thing and is classified by Clapton himself as one of his best albums. From level keeps the album par with the legendary "Ocean Boulevard" recording, the guitar on Journeyman's even better. There is virtually everything on the "Journey": A little blues with a touch of jazz featuring the Ray Charles classic "Hard Times". Something Blues with a corresponding breath Soul featuring "Bad Love" and a lot of soul with a touch of blues featuring "Breaking Point". It is interesting in this piece that Clapton here the good old wah-wah pedal has rehabilitated. Many guitarists in the 90s discovered the device for it again. It is therefore not the mouth fully when viewing the disc as a milestone. The prominent companions values on the whole still: When Bad Love Phil Collins plays an excellent drums, Robert Cray controls his guitar on the (now) classic "Bad Love" at and you can hear on the disk one of the last acts of the late George Harrison. The combination of blues with a touch of soul and rock and vice versa acting consistently succeeded.
