Reseña
Con No Reason to Cry, de 1976, Eric Clapton entrega uno de sus trabajos más relajados y con un aire de reunión de amigos. En este álbum, por lo tanto, el artista se rodea de un impresionante elenco de estrellas invitadas, incluyendo a Bob Dylan y a los miembros de The Band. De hecho, el disco fue grabado en el estudio de estos últimos en Malibú.
En consecuencia, el sonido del álbum es de un rock de raíces muy orgánico y con una atmósfera de camaradería. La producción es sencilla y busca capturar la magia de la interacción entre los músicos.
Además, el álbum es conocido por contener el dueto de Eric Clapton y Bob Dylan en la canción "Sign Language". A pesar de su calidad, el disco es a menudo considerado irregular y no tuvo un gran éxito comercial.
En definitiva, 'No Reason to Cry' es un trabajo muy disfrutable, el sonido de una fiesta entre leyendas de la música. Es un disco que, aunque imperfecto, está lleno de momentos de una gran autenticidad.

- Beautiful ThingVer letra 4:26
[X]I've told you once, now you should knowletra de Beautiful Thing
The reason that I'm coming down.
There ain't no time to repeat again;
Just need to bring it around.
We had a beautiful thing going,
You couldn't see things my way.
We had a beautiful thing going,
Something just got in our way.
And I told you once that it was rough.
I looked on you as my friend,
Because that did not seem to be good enough,
And now it's time to begin.
We've got a beautiful thing going,
I hope that's the way it will stay.
We've got a beautiful thing going,
Nothing can stand in our way.
Repeat Second Chorus - CarnivalVer letra 3:44
Composición: Eric Clapton[X]Come with me, come with me,letra de Carnival
To the carnival, to the carnival.
You will see, you will see,
What you want to see, exactly what you want to be,
At the carnival, at the carnival, at the carnival.
Come with me, come with me,
To the carnival, to the carnival,
To the carnival, to the carnival, to the carnival.
Come with me, come with me.
Come with me, come with me. - Sign LanguageVer letra 2:58
Composición: Bob Dylan[X]You speak to me in sign language,letra de Sign Language
As I'm eating a sandwich in a small cafe
At a quarter to three.
But I can't respond to your sign language.
You're taking advantage, bringing me down.
Can't you make any sound?
'Twas there by the bakery, surrounded by fakery.
This is my story, still I'm still there.
Does she know I still care?
Link Wray was playing on a jukebox, I was paying
For the words I was saying, so misunderstood.
He didn't do me no good.

Repeat Second Verse - County Jail BluesVer letra 4:00
Composición: Alfred FieldsArreglos: Eric Clapton[X]They picked me up,letra de County Jail Blues
Put me in the county jail.
They picked me up,
Put me in the county jail.
They wouldn't let my woman
Come and post my bail.
Now I'm in prison,
I've almost done my time.
Now I'm in prison,
I've almost done my time.
They gave me six months,
I had to work out nine.
I know my baby,
She's gonna jump and shout.
I know my baby,
She's gonna jump and shout.
When the train comes in
And I come walking out.
Take these stripes from around me,
Chains from around my legs.
Take these stripes from around me,
Chains from around my legs.
The stripes don't hurt me;
The chains could kill me dead. - All Our Past TimesVer letra 4:40
[X]I don't want to be the one to say I'm sorry.letra de All Our Past Times
I don't want to be the one to take the blame.
I don't want to be the one to throw it over.
I don't want to be the one to feel ashamed.
I don't want to be the one who thinks of nothing.
I don't want to be the one to tell you what you have seen.
After all this time, well I thought that you were mine.
I just want to be the one who would share this dream.
All our past times should be forgotten.
All our past times should be erased.
I don't care how much it costs;
'Cause I don't count the loss
As long as I can see your face again.
You don't have to tell me when you're leaving,
If it's half past one, if it's maybe four.
It makes no difference where you think you're going,
But please remember not to slam the door.
Yes, I don't care how much it costs;
You know I don't count the loss
As long as I can see your face again. - Hello Old FriendVer letra 3:36
Composición: Eric Clapton[X]As I am strolling down the garden path,letra de Hello Old Friend
I saw a flower glowing in the dark.
It looked so pretty and it was unique;
I had to bend down just to have a peek.
Hello old friend,
It's really good to see you once again.
Hello old friend,
It's really good to see you once again.
I saw you walking underneath the stars;
I couldn't stop 'cause I was in a car.
I'm sure the distance wouldn't be too far
If I got out and walked to where you are.
Chorus
An old man passed me on the street today;
I thought I knew him but I couldn't say.
I stopped to think if I could place his frame.
When he tipped his hat I knew his name.
Chorus
Chorus - Double TroubleVer letra 4:23
Composición: Otis RushArreglos: Eric Clapton[X]Lay awake at night,letra de Double Trouble
Oh so low, just so troubled.
Can't get a job,
Laid off and I'm having double trouble.
Hey hey, to make you've got to try.
Baby, that's no lie.
Some of this generation is millionaires;
I can't even keep decent clothes to wear.
Laugh at me walking,
And I have no place to go.
Bad luck and trouble has taken me;
I have no money to show. - Innocent TimesVer letra 4:11
Composición: Eric Clapton, Marcy Levy[X]I was a child born so free;letra de Innocent Times
It seems that time has put age on me.
And when I grow old, will I once again find
All of those sweet, innocent times?
I was a child born without fear;
It seems that time has placed me here.
With no freedom to laugh, there's more reason to cry.
I really miss those innocent times.
I used to feel joy in my soul,
But now my sorrow has taken control.
As I look around I pray, Lord be kind;
Just one more taste of those innocent times.
As I look around I pray, Lord be kind;
Just one more taste of those innocent times,
Just one more taste of those innocent times. - HungryVer letra 4:39
Composición: Dick Sims, Marcy Levy[X]Last night as I stepped into the stage lightsletra de Hungry
I heard the people cry when they saw my face
There's nothing like our hearts beating in time
The crowd may inspire, but you give me my strength
Oh, hungry, I'm hungry, I'm hungry
For your sweet smile
Lonely, I'm lonely, I'm lonely
I need to hold you for a while
I've been slipping into desperation
You're the only salvation that the Lord designed
Your absence is controlling my defenses
My life is senseless without you by my side
Oh, hungry, I'm hungry, I'm hungry
For your sweet smile
Lonely, I'm lonely, I'm lonely
I need to hold you for a while
Oh, hungry, I'm hungry, I'm hungry
For your sweet smile
Lonely, I'm lonely, I'm lonely
I need to hold you for a while
Loose ladies on the road will drive you crazy
Every no becomes a maybe, it never takes too long
Missing you, I don't know what I'm gonna do
You don't know what I'm going through; everything seems wrong
Oh, hungry, I'm hungry, I'm hungry
For your sweet smile
Lonely, I'm lonely, I'm lonely
I need to hold you for a while - Black Summer RainVer letra 4:55
Composición: Eric Clapton[X]Where is the sunletra de Black Summer Rain
The sun that used to shine on me?
Where has it gone
Or is it just a memory?
I looked through the window
Staring at the sky
Waiting for a moment
That always passed me by
Black summer rain
Black summer rain
Black summer rain is falling on me, girl
Where is the love
The love I need to set me free?
And how can I escape
This gloom that is swallowing me? - Last NightVer letra 4:52
[X]Last night, I lost the best friend I ever had.letra de Last Night
Last night, I lost the best friend I ever had.
She's gone away and left me; that makes me feel so bad.
It's early in the morning and my love is coming down to you.
It's early in the morning and my love is coming down to you.
I'll love you, love you, baby, till I don't know what to do.
Last night, I lost the best friend I ever had.
Last night, I lost the best friend I ever had.
Now you've gone away and left me; that makes me feel so bad.
