Customer Reviews:

3 out of 5 stars It's a fun cover album.......2004-11-19

I think the reviewer from Harrisonburg, Virginia USA needs to get a sense of humor. This album, and all the "Pickin' on" albums are just fun covers of classic rock songs.

4 out of 5 stars Controversial.......2003-10-05

The whole "Pickin' on" series is controversial, some of the records are better in musical quality, some are not so good, but all are BLUEGRASS! So if you are a hardcore fan of Eric Clapton and think the only Eric Clapton can do Eric Clapton songs, STAY AWAY FROM THIS RECORD. If you are a hardcore bluegrass fan who loves Bill Monroe, Flatt & Scruggs (the early stuff!) or the Stanleys, STAY AWAY FROM THIS RECORD!

If you are open to new ideas and want to try out something different, you might want to try this. Some of the tunes fit well for acoustic and bluegrass interpretation, some not so good. Anyway, if you are open-minded enough to try something new from time to time, here's a chance...

5 out of 5 stars Great!!!.......2002-03-12

This cd is one of the best cd`s I have. The musicians on this cd are great. I would recommend this album to any fan of Clapton and bluegrass.

5 out of 5 stars Neat Concept.......2001-12-07

Hey Bluegrass Rocks.
It cant be as bad as the one guy said.

1 out of 5 stars AWFUL hardly does this album justice........2000-09-01

I am one of the world's biggest Clapton fans. This album is NOT for Clapton fans. This album takes some of the best songs in the world and slaughters them.

Ever heard "Layla" on a banjo? Trust me. You don't want to. This album was a gag gift from a friend (an EX-friend now...) who thought it would be great to see my reaction to "Sunshine of Your Love" on a banjo and fiddle. I have never been more horrified or offended by anything in my entire life.

What's next? "Purple Haze" on the accordian? Avoid this album like the Plague. It's only conceivable use is as a coaster. If you want to make a Clapton fan sick, and make them hate you forever, buy them this album.

    5 out of 5 stars GREAT MUSIC -- but the track listing is all wrong.......2005-12-12

    I've always been a big fan of Eric Clapton's music. I had enjoyed bluegrass music from time to time, but the first time it made a big impression on me was when I heard the first Pickin' On Clapton album. I loved it, and a whole new genre of music opened up to me. The musicians on this album are definitely talented enough to bring Clapton's tunes to life in fine bluegrass form. I'm sure you won't be disappointed on that score. If you've ever enjoyed either Clapton's music or bluegrass instrumentals in general, you'll probably enjoy this.

    The only thing that surprised me here is that most of the tracks are listed WRONG. They're printed wrong on the CD case, they're wrong in the liner notes, and they're wrong in Amazon.com's listing. (Well, 9 out of 12 are wrong, anyway.) Someone made a big mistake when stamping out these CDs. Here are the tracks in the order they actually appear on the disc:

    1) Motherless Children
    2) Bell Bottom Blues
    3) Let It Grow
    4) Badge
    5) Strange Brew
    6) Tulsa Time
    7) Presence Of The Lord
    8) Blues Power
    9) Forever Man
    10) Willie & The Hand Jive
    11) Change The World
    12) Pot Luck Blues
