Clapton had a hand in writing nearly every track on this laidback LP, a collection devoted more to subtle grooves than raw power. On the title track, the rhythm section locks into a tight, flowing beat as Clapton uses a soft falsetto to croon lyrics that suggest both romantic and religious devotion. And though Bob Dylan penned "Born In Time", Clapton treats the tune as if it were his own, carefully sculpting a bass-heavy soundscape as humid as the night the song describes.
