A lot of Clapton's work is hit and miss for me. This is a hit, he really does Robert Johnson's material justice and sounds like he's enjoying himself.

This album takes Clapton to his blues roots and he really shines in his musical maturity. It's clear that this is the music he most enjoys playing, and it is a wonderful tribute to Robert Johnson.
