461 Ocean Boulevard - Eric Clapton

I remember buying this record at a place called E. J. Korvette's - a department store in North Riverside.  The record department was upstairs.  And the record as a "price tag" only had a letter (A, B, C, D, E, F, G etc.) as a "price" and you'd have to look on large poster on the wall to figure out the actual price.  Contrary to Urban Legend - the store name was NOT short for "Eight (or Eleven) Jewish Korean Veterans."  As for the record - it is produced by the legendary Tom Dowd - my favorite record producer.  This might have been the first lp I ever bought retail.  My first 45 was One by Three Dog Night.  Can this really be Eric's second ever solo record?  This period of Eric's life in south Florida is well documented in his excellent autobiography that I read a couple of years ago.  Eric wrote that the guys in the Dominoes (Carl Radle, Jim Gordon & Bobby Whitlock) were his favorite backing lineup with whom he ever played.  Eric also wrote in the book that while living down in Florida during this phase of his career, and after he disbanded the Dominoes, that he basically "stole" George Terry, Dick Sims, and Jamie Oldaker (who all play significant roles on 461OB) from what was then Bob Seger's band.
