Title: NO REASON TO CRY AT ALL!
Review: I recently added "No Reason to Cry" to my Clapton discography collection. It was the last Clapton commercial release I acquired. I can only ask myself how I let this gem slip through the cracks. I agree with most reviewers that "461" and "Slowhand" are better recordings. However, the disappointment listeners feel with this album is a testament to Clapton's brilliance. By any other artist, this recording would be getting far greater accolades. However, Clapton fans are used to over-the-top, superb recordings on a regular basis, rendering us spoiled. I submit that an "average" Clapton album is superior to many musician's best work. My favorite song on the album, written by EC, is "Hello Old Friend." Simple and beautiful.
