ERIC CLAPTON

SONGWRITERS: Robert Johnson

ALBUM: ME AND MR. JOHNSON

LABEL: REPRISE RECORDS

GENRE: BLUES-ROCK

YEAR: 2004

Me and Mr. Johnson is the sixteenth studio album recorded by the British rock musician Eric Clapton and was released on March 23, 2004 on Reprise Records. This album is a tribute to the legendary bluesman Robert Johnson. Originally, Clapton had planned to record an album of new material, but by the time of the recording sessions there were not enough new songs written, so the band instead recorded a series of Robert Johnson cover songs. Me and Mr. Johnson sold more than two million albums worldwide and reached the Top 10 in more than 15 countries. Sir Peter Blake painted the album cover, using a series of photographs taken of Clapton rather than painting the British rock legend from life. A companion album and video release entitled Sessions for Robert J was released on December 7, 2004, and featured different versions of each of the songs from the studio album .
