Slowhand – альбом Эрика Клэптона, изданный в 1977 году. Он заключает в себе три его самых популярных сингла, блюзовую Cocaine, балладу Wonderful Tonight и кантри-вещь Lay Down Sally, хотя другие вещи стали такой же классикой Клэптона, типа The Core или Next Time You See Her. Название альбома – это прозвище Эрика, которое ему дал Джорджио Гомельски (Giorgio Gomelsky). Альбом получился довольно успешным, особенно на фоне предыдущего провального альбома No Reason to Cry. Wonderful Tonight (Clapton) – 3:44. Lay Down Sally (Clapton, Marcy Levy, George Terry) – 3:56. Next Time You See Her (Clapton) – 4:01. We're All the Way (Don Williams) – 2:32. Сторона 2. The Core (Clapton/Levy) – 8:45. May You Never (John Martyn) – 3:01. Mean Old Frisco (Arthur Crudup) – 4:42.

Eric Clapton is the debut solo studio album by British rock musician Eric Clapton, released in August 1970 under Atco and Polydor Records. After being successful with bands including The Yardbirds, John Mayall & the Bluesbreakers, Cream and Blind Faith, Clapton recorded an album under his own name in late 1969 and early 1970. The album cover shows Clapton sitting in a room which is going to be decorated and in which a ladder, a chair and some carpets are placed.

Eric Patrick Clapton, CBE (born 30 March 1945) is an English rock and blues guitarist, singer, and songwriter. He is the only three-time inductee to the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame: once as a solo artist and separately as a member of the Yardbirds and of Cream. Clapton has been referred to as one of the most important and influential guitarists of all time

Slowhand is Clapton’s fifth solo studio album and was released in 1977. The album was named after Eric Clapton’s nickname, which he got fom Giorgio Gomelsky, manager of The Yardbirds: On my guitar I used light-gauge guitar strings, with a very thin first string, which made it easier to bend the notes, and it was not uncommon during the most frenetic bits of playing for me to break at least one string. During the pause while I was changing my string, the frenzied audience would often break into a slow handclap, inspiring Giorgio to dream up the nickname of ‘Slowhand’ Clapton
