Title: Eric Clapton – Slowhand
Year/Genre/City: 1977, Blues Rock
Matrix #: RS 1 3030
Condition: VG+ (sounds great)

Cultural Facts:

1. Media Narrative: “Slowhand” came from Yardbirds-era shows—crowds did a slow handclap while he changed broken strings.

2. Political Science: A 1976 onstage anti-immigrant rant helped ignite the Rock Against Racism movement; he later walked it back publicly.

3. Band Drama: This era overlaps with his messy personal orbit around Pattie Boyd (ex–George Harrison) and the instability that shaped his late-’70s reset.
