艾力克萊普頓 Unplugged 演唱會 (180G 2LP 黑膠唱片)

Never before released on vinyl in America. Import copies came and went, quickly becoming collectible. Now spread over two LPs! 

Eric Clapton's Unplugged was responsible for making acoustic-based music, and Unplugged albums in particular, a hot trend in the early '90s. Clapton's concert was not only one of the finest Unplugged episodes, but also some of the finest music he had recorded in years. The music was straightforward and direct, alternating between his pop numbers and traditional blues songs. The result was some of the most genuine, heartfelt music the guitarist has ever committed to tape. And some of his most popular - the album sold over seven million copies in the U.S. Unplugged won the 1993 Grammy Awards for Album of the Year, Best Male Pop Vocal Performance and Best Male Rock Vocal Performance. "Tears In Heaven" won the Grammy for Song of the Year and "Layla" was named Best Rock Song.

Mastered at Bernie Grundman Mastering. Two 180-gram LPs pressed at Pallas. Packaged in a two-pocket direct-to-board gatefold jacket at Furnace.

"(Clapton) hasn't played guitar this well in years, seemingly grateful for the acoustic limitations that let him forego guitar-hero pyrotechnics for a folksy Big Bill Broonzy bag..." - Stereophile, December 1992

葛萊美獎最佳專輯
收錄葛萊美獎「最佳唱片」與「年度歌曲」＂Tears In Heaven＂、「最佳搖滾歌曲」＂Lalay＂等14首現場原音演唱經典版本

這是一場吉他語絲、蒼涼嗓音與心靈耳朵的對話。吉他之神Eric Clapton於’93年曾帶著一把空心吉他，為一小群幸運觀眾做了一次精彩絕倫的原音演出，這場小型的演唱會後來透過MTV電台的轉播更引起不絕好評。本張專輯「Unplugged」即萃選該演唱會中的精華曲目，包括MTV未轉播的部份作品。在數位藍調好手的烘托相助之下，Eric將他個人不同年代的曲調扮上新妝，可以一聽前所未聞的Eric Clapton，沒有擴大器、沒有合成效果，只有一位吉他大師滿腔滿懷的熱情與絕技，臨場感絕佳，每一篇樂章在吉他六弦的拉、撩、撥、掃之下，發出藍調美學的詠嘆。本輯除了Top 10經典＂Layla＂、＂Before You Accuse Me＂、＂Old Love＂等舊作外，’92年春天摘下全美亞軍的淒然輓歌＂Tears In Heaven＂也在其中。Eric在歌壇浮浮沈沈四個十年，咀嚼著成名、失利、酗酒、嗑藥、得獎、喪子的酸甜苦辣的人生之後，大口舒吐音樂家的豪意與暢情，譜出一段吉他與藍調搖滾相戀一生的故事。
