Eric Clapton ute med julealbum

Eric Clapton er i dag ute med albumet Happy Xmas.

Dette er hans første studioalbum siden I Still Do fra 2016. Albumet inneholder klassiske julesanger, men også mindre kjente samt en helt ny låt, “For Love On Christmas Day”. Illustrasjonen på coveret er laget av Clapton selv.

Albumet er produsert av Clapton og hans faste samarbeidspartner Simon Climie.

Om albumet sier han; "I had in my head that these holiday songs could be done with a slight blues tinge, and I started to figure out how to play the blues lines in between the vocals. I got it down and one of the most identifiable songs on the album, the one that became the foundational style, is Have Yourself a Merry Little Christmas".
