From the Cradle is the twelfth solo studio album by Eric Clapton released on 13 September 1994. A blues cover album and Clapton’s follow-up to his successful 1992 live album, Unplugged.
Although he had long been associated with the blues, From the Cradle was Clapton’s first attempt at an all-blues album. He would subsequently record Riding with the King with B.B. King; a tribute to Robert Johnson, Me and Mr. Johnson; and a collaboration with J. J. Cale, The Road to Escondido.
