Before his career as a solo artist, Clapton became famous as a guitarist in several bands, including The Yardbirds (1963–65), John Mayall & the Bluesbreakers (1965–1966), Cream (1966–1968), Blind Faith (1968–1969) and Derek and the Dominos (1970–1971). Clapton released his debut solo album in 1970 Eric Clapton, which charted at number 17 in the US charts and at number 14 in the British charts. Four years later he released his second album 461 Ocean Boulevard, which received two gold certifications in the US and UK and peaked at number 1 in the US charts. His 1977 album, Slowhand, named after his nickname given by Giorgio Gomelsky,[2] received three times Platinum in the United States. His most commercial recognised period was from 1989 through 2000, where his albums received at least five certifications and peaked in several countries in the top 10. Eric Clapton's best-selling album to date is the live album Unplugged, which has sold more than ten million copies in the United States alone.[3] It is one of the best-selling live albums in the United States.
