Clapton had already established himself as a guitar legend by the time he released Slowhand. His heroin habit long behind him, Clapton's songwriting mastery was fully evident on the album, particularly in the stunning ballad "Wonderful Tonight." It fully actualized all of the potential hinted at in his earlier "Promises," and Clapton trusted himself enough to slow things down. Some of his most expressive guitar work can be found throughout this album, not just within "Wonderful." Ironically enough, Slowhand is probably best known for the hit "Cocaine." Built upon a simple repeated riff, the song had Clapton's trademark smooth voice with its wear around the edges, and yet another stellar guitar solo. Flashy runs and licks were never the most integral part of Clapton's catalog, his blues background being the primary source for his sound. Slowhand, with its phrasings, both guitar and vocal, established Clapton as the possessor of one of the most extensive vocabularies in rock.

Eric Clapton était déjà une légende de la guitare avant la sortie de Slowhand. Débarrassé de son penchant pour l'héroïne, les talents de compositeur de Clapton s'expriment pleinement sur cet album, notamment sur la superbe ballade "Wonderful Tonight". Il confirme tout le potentiel qu'il avait montré avec son précédent "Promises". Clapton avait suffisamment confiance en lui pour ralentir les choses. Cet album contient certaines de ses parties de guitare les plus expressives, qui ne se limitent pas à "Wonderful". Il est amusant que Slowhand soit pourtant plus connu pour le tube "Cocaine". Construite sur un simple riff de guitare répétitif, la chanson porte la marque de la douce voix du guitariste, parfois un peu fatiguée, et d'un de ces solos de guitare qu'il semblait jouer depuis une autre galaxie. Clapton n'a jamais vraiment été un adepte du jeu rapide ou léché, car le blues est la principale racine de sa musique. Avec les harmonies de guitare et de voix de Slowhand, Clapton s'est hissé parmi les plus grands du rock.
