Always

Eric's new solo album 'Always', his first on Provogue, an imprint of Mascot Label Group, sees him venture into an elaborate mix of blues, funk, rock and soul ? a sunny, funky and laid back album combining the vibe of 1970s Laurel Canyon, swaths of Hammond B3 organ, a rhythm section that appear to be joined at the hip, and of course that punchy Eric Krasno guitar sound.

It evokes the spirit of Sly Stone, D'Angelo, Lenny Kravitz, and, dare we say his name... Prince? 'Always' also alludes to the album cover, showing Eric's wife, then pregnant with their now born son. This album is dedicated to them.
