Originally released in October 1999, the collection focuses on Clapton's Warner Bros.\/Reprise era, combining blues-rock guitar, polished album rock, contemporary pop and the more restrained singer-songwriter style that characterised much of his later career.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"isSelectedEnd\"\u003eThe collection opens with \"Blue Eyes Blue\", written for the soundtrack to \u003cem\u003eRunaway Bride\u003c\/em\u003e, followed by the Grammy-winning \"Change The World\" and the deeply personal \"My Father's Eyes\". \"Tears In Heaven\", originally released in 1992, remains one of Clapton's most famous and emotionally significant recordings, while the Unplugged version of \"Layla\" provides a radically stripped-back interpretation of his classic Derek And The Dominos composition.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"isSelectedEnd\"\u003eThe compilation also features key recordings from Clapton's 1980s and early-1990s catalogue, including \"Pretending\", \"Bad Love\", \"Before You Accuse Me (Take A Look At Yourself)\", \"It's In The Way That You Use It\" and \"Forever Man\". \"Running On Faith\" appears in its acoustic \u003cem\u003eUnplugged\u003c\/em\u003e form, while \"She's Waiting\" represents the \u003cem\u003eBehind The Sun\u003c\/em\u003e era. The later tracks \"River Of Tears\" and \"(I) Get Lost\" bring the collection into the late 1990s, with the latter associated with the 1999 film \u003cem\u003eThe Story Of Us\u003c\/em\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"isSelectedEnd\"\u003eThis edition concludes with \"Wonderful Tonight (Live Edit)\", a live version included as a bonus track on European\/non-US editions of the compilation. The recordings represented here span approximately 1985–1999, making this a useful overview of Clapton's commercially successful solo period between his mid-1980s comeback and the end of the 1990s.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"isSelectedEnd\"\u003eFor fans of Eric Clapton, Cream, Derek And The Dominos, blues rock, classic rock, guitar music, 1980s rock and 1990s adult contemporary, \u003cem\u003eClapton Chronicles\u003c\/em\u003e brings together major songs including \"Tears In Heaven\", \"Layla\", \"Change The World\", \"Bad Love\", \"Forever Man\" and \"Wonderful Tonight\" in one concise collection.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"isSelectedEnd\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan\u003eTracklist\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003col start=\"1\"\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eBlue Eyes Blue – 4:42\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eChange The World – 3:55\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eMy Father's Eyes – 5:23\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eTears In Heaven – 4:33\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eLayla (Unplugged Version) – 4:37\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003ePretending – 4:43\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eBad Love – 5:14\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eBefore You Accuse Me (Take A Look At Yourself) – 3:57\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eIt's In The Way That You Use It – 4:11\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eForever Man – 3:11\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eRunning On Faith (Unplugged Version) – 6:26\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eShe's Waiting – 4:58\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eRiver Of Tears – 7:21\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003e(I) Get Lost – 4:21\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eWonderful Tonight (Live Edit) – 5:24\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ol\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003ciframe width=\"560\" height=\"315\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/Og4GqdaCmuI?si=LDFgLftUfnfHZhl0\" title=\"YouTube video player\"\u003e\u003c\/iframe\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Reprise Records","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":55481522159958,"sku":"9362-47564-2","price":2.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1009\/1013\/7686\/files\/rn-image_picker_lib_temp_239484a0-704e-40ca-94ae-e89771ffbc4a.jpg?v=1790261972","url":"https:\/\/www.sounds-grounds.co.uk\/products\/eric-clapton-clapton-chronicles-the-best-of-eric-clapton","provider":"Sounds + Grounds","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
