It established Clapton's reputation as one of the most important Australian songwriters." And important he is! With songs like Girls on the Avenue, I Am an Island, Capricorn Dancer, High Society, Blue Bay Blues, Glory Road and, not forgetting Deep Water, he really is responsible for some of The Best Years of our Lives.
