Editorial Reviews

Reissue Vinyl LP 180 Gram Pressing. 461 Ocean Boulevard is a 1974 album by Blues Rock musician Eric Clapton. In creating his first album after quitting heroin and his second after the dissolution of Derek & the Dominos, Clapton was under pressure during the recording of 461 Ocean Boulevard, but the album received rave reviews upon its release. The title of the album was the address of a house on Golden Beach in Miami, Clapton was living in at the time. The house is also the one featured on the cover. In 2003, the album was ranked number 409 on Rolling Stone magazine's list of the 500 greatest albums of all time.

461 Ocean Boulevard contains some of the most optimistic and faithful songs Eric Clapton has ever written. The lyrics really boost people's faith in what they want to accomplish. The songs are just simply beautiful and captivating.

Has anybody noticed an issue with distortion on "i shot the sheriff"? The rest of the album doesn't seem to distort but during the chorus of 'sheriff' I hear real distortion. It's definitely not my speakers b/c I tried my CD and mp3 version, no distortion. I've got a great system (music hall mmf 2.2 turntable, denon 4308ci, and klipsch xf-48s. think it's worth contacting amazon about?
