Eric Clapton
I Still Do
Album · Rock · 2016
A poignant collection of covers and originals, and a reunion with an old friend. I Still Do finds the 71-year-old guitar hero teaming up with producer Glyn Johns for the first time since his 1977 classic, Slowhand. Together they’ve taken to realising originals (like the subtle but soulful blues “Spiral”) and skilfully reinterpreting songs by Robert Johnson (“Stones in My Passway”), Skip James (“Cypress Grove”), Bob Dylan (“I Dreamed I Saw St. Augustine”) and more, including “I’ll Be Seeing You”—a plaintive, 1930s Broadway tune-turned-jazz standard most commonly associated with Billie Holliday that Clapton makes the perfect closer.
