Eric Clapton’s “The Lady in the Balcony”— the album review (audio)

In a word—pureness. That’s the sentiment I absorbed listening to the 2021 Eric Clapton record The Lady in the Balcony. Eric Clapton has such a wide range in his approach to music and there are so many styles and eras reflected on these recordings. Yet, all of the performances seemed to be guided by a purity that elevates the songs above the pursuit of image or style.

Due to the lockdowns, Clapton’s live shows at the Royal Albert Hall were eliminated. An artist can’t simply turn off that impulse to produce his art. This was the inspiration for Eric Clapton to assemble his band, producer, and crew to record The Lady in the Balcony.
