Eric Clapton – The Road To Escondido (Enhanced Edition)

Eric Clapton – The Road To Escondido

The Road to Escondido is a collaborative studio album by J.J. Cale and Eric Clapton. The album contains the final recordings with keyboard player Billy Preston and is dedicated to both Preston and Brian Roylance. In 2008, the album won a Grammy Award for Best Contemporary Blues Album.

The Road to Escondido was originally released in 2006 and brought JJ Cale and Eric Clapton together for their first collaborative album, after years of admiring each other's work. The result was a distinctive hybrid sound that cannot be placed in one specific genre, but draws inspiration from blues, rock, country, and folk.

To mark the album's 20th anniversary, it is now being released in a new Enhanced Edition, which includes three previously unreleased songs from the original recordings, three live tracks from Live in San Diego, and new liner notes.
