	Eric Clapton - 461 Ocean Boulevard - Polydor Records - SACD
		'461 Ocean Boulevard' was the first of these "comeback" solo albums.
		Well, ol' Eric decided to clean himself up and go back to the music he truly loved...and thus was born '461 Ocean Boulevard' (an actual address of an actual house in Miami Beach where he decided to overcome his demons).
		And, I must say, as much as I love(d) Cream, '461...' is a very good blues album...so very much better than the watered down, half-hearted attempts he's lately been foisting upon the generic public's love for, well...just that.

		"461 Ocean Boulevard", Eric Clapton's second solo album from 1974, is an appealing amalgam of several different styles (rock, pop, R&B, country, blues and even reggae).
		It may not have the flashy guitar work of his earlier recordings, nor is it as gritty as fans of Eric Clapton the blues player (rather than Eric Clapton the pop singer) might have preferred.
		All in all, "461 Ocean Boulevard" is a really fine album, and one that Eric Clapton tried again and again to replicate over the next ten years.

		And 461 Ocean Boulevard contained Clapton's cover of Bob Marley's "I Shot the Sheriff"- represented here in a tougher, more expansive live rendition from the band's December 5th, 1974 concert at the Hammersmith Odeon in London- which exposed millions of Americans to raggae music for the first time when it became a Number One hit.
		461 Ocean Boulevard re-established Clapton in both critical and commercial terms, but it also ushered in the phase of his career that engendered concern in many of his longest-standing followers.
		In their concentration of song writing, vocals and melody, 461 Ocean Boulevard and the nine studio LPs that have followed it de-emphasize the pyrotechnic guitar work that characterized Clapton's tracks with the Bluesbreakers, Cream, and Derek and the Dominos- though there's certainly no shortage of excellent playing.

	Eric Clapton Album Reviews
		461 Ocean Boulevard (Polydor ’74) Rating: A- After Layla capped off a restlessly brilliant first seven years of his career, Clapton sank into despair and drugs.
		461 Ocean Boulevard mapped out the course his solo career would subsequently take (but rarely if ever with such inspired results), as Clapton’s voice takes center stage along with his guitar as Clapton sought to shed his Guitar God status while proving his chops as a singer and songwriter.
		There’s One In Every Crowd (Polydor ’75) Rating: B+ Though not nearly as successful as 461 Ocean Boulevard since it failed to produce any hit singles or signature songs, There’s One In Every Crowd was another fine album that's somewhat overlooked and underrated.

		So, 461 Ocean Boulevard symbolized Clapton's victory over drugs, as well as his return to the music scene.
		Most of 461 Ocean Boulevard is delivered in the same laid-back style.
		461 Ocean Boulevard is a hesitant effort, but one that does not shadow the genius that Clapton is, and is worth listening to, flaws and all.

		461 Ocean Boulevard is Eric Clapton's second solo studio album, arriving after his side project of Derek and the Dominos and a long struggle with heroin addiction.
		Although there are some new reggae influences, the album doesn't sound all that different from the rock, pop, blues, country, and R&B amalgam of Eric Clapton.
		However, 461 Ocean Boulevard is a tighter, more focused outing that enables Clapton to stretch out instrumentally.

	Adrian's Album Reviews : Eric Clapton
		These influences are all over '461 Ocean Boulevard' and it's nice to hear him taking in different music forms and treating them with respect and bringing them into his own style and compositions.
		As far as Ocean Boulevard is concerned I remember when it came out that I thought Clapton was climbing aboard the MOR bandwagon that was in full swing at the time.
		Released far too soon after his comeback '461 Ocean Boulevard' set, 'There's One In Every Crowd' sees Eric seemingly pretending to be Bob Marley, and that he can pull this reggae stuff off.

		It's a tribute to Clapton's charisma and talents that 461 Ocean Boulevard doesn't succumb to the danger Clapton courts by playing unobtrusively with an unimpressive band.
		461 debuts a new, thin, circumscribed and circumspect style which will disappoint many—it has neither the beauty nor the power of the old sound.
		461 is also partially redeemed by the quality of some of the material.

		The cover design is brilliant, the songs all well mastered and sort of all form a part of the Florida experience, which being a foreigner was lucky to partake.
