LET?S CLEAROUT THIS MISCONCEPTION, ONCE AND FOR ALL:IT?S TRUE THAT THIS IS NOT THE E.C. THAT WE ALL HAVE COME TO KNOW AND LOVE, YOU KNOW WHAT I MEAN, THERE ARE NO "LAYLA?S" OR " SUNSHINE OF YOUR LOVE", OR ANY OF THAT SPECIAL AND UNIQUE BLUESY GUITAR THAT WE ALL GREW UP LISTENING TO, AND HAVE COME TO ADORE,BUT, JUST TO SAY IT IN A FEW WORDS: PUT ON YOUR CD PLAYER (MY PERSONAL FAVORITE ON THIS ALBUM) THE TRACK "RIVER OF TEARS", GIVE IT A CHANCE, RELAX, AND I ASSURE YOU THAT YOU WILL HEAR, BESIDES "TEARS IN HEAVEN" AND MAYBE "BLUE EYES BLUE", THE BEST BLUES NUMBER OF E.C. EVER!: IF THAT ISN?T A BLUES NUMBER,I WOULD LIKE TO KOW WHAT THE BLUES ARE!, HE SINGS THAT SONG WITH A LOT OF SENTIMENTALISM, LIKE NEVER BEFORE, THAT GUITAR IS EVEN MORE SPECIAL AND UNIQUE, IN FACT: 1. SONGS LIKE THIS ARE THE REAL BLUES, THE MAN FEELS WHAT HE?S PLAYING AND SINGING, THE LYRICS ARE SO PROFUND, SONGS LIKE THIS CAN REALLY COMFORT YOU WHEN YOU ARE IN PAIN, THAT?S WHY I CALL IT THE BLUES. 2. IF YOU THINK THAT THIS IS NO GOOD, THAT IT?S GARBAGE,, YOU THE ONE?S THAT ON THE REVIEWS SAID THAT THE MAN?S TALENT IS OVER, JUST BECAUSE IT DOESN?T SOUND LIKE " LAYLA", "COCAINE", THEN SCREW YOU BROTHER, CAUSE YOU KNOW NOTHING ABOUT BLUES, AND ABOVE ALL YOU DON?T UNDERSTAND THE MAN THAT WAS THE SOUNDTRACK OF YOUR LIFE, WHEN HE IS IN PAIN, SINGING THE REAL BLUES: FEELING WHAT HE IS SINGING, COMFORTING THE ONE?S THAT ARE GOING THROUGH THE SAME IN LIFE, THAT?S WHAT THE BLUES ARE FOR, ISN?T IT. THANK?S E.C., AND I?M SURE, IF YOU DO BELIEVE IN GOD, THERE WILL BE NO MORE TEARS IN HEAVEM ( OR EARTH), GOD WILL COMFORT YOU.
