Description
Super rare, impossible to find - ERIC CLAPTON 'The Best of Everything' - A special 3-hour profile with TONS of candid interview with Eric Clapton and TONS of his music (from the very beginning, dating back before the Yarbirds). This album (as displayed on the photos) was produced 'exclusively for NBC Radio Entertainment' - NEVER for sale to the general public. This is a 5 LP box set (nine sides, as the final side is blank) used in the radio airing of Labor Day Weekend, August 30-September 2, 1985. It was on this very airing (hence, within the LPs) that Clapton famously stated: “It’s no good to write a deliberate anti-drug song and hope that it will catch. Because the general thing is that people will be upset by that. It would disturb them to have someone else shoving something down their throat. So the best thing to do is offer something that seems ambiguous--that on study or on reflection actually can be seen to be ‘anti’--which the song “Cocaine” is actually an anti-cocaine song. If you study it or look at it with a little bit of thought... from a distance... or as it goes by… it just sounds like a song about cocaine. But in actual fact, it is quite cleverly anti-cocaine.” ALL 5 LPs are Near Mint, and appear to have never been played. The LP box is in VG++ condition (one very minor tear, and one very minor crease)
good luck, and happy bidding!
