Editing No Reason to Cry (section)

==Recording==
The album was recorded at [[The Band]]'s Shangri-la Studios in March 1976, and included involvement from all five members of The Band; [[Rick Danko]] shared vocals with Clapton on "All Our Past Times", which he co-wrote with Clapton. The album also includes a duet with [[Bob Dylan]] on his otherwise unreleased song "Sign Language". The booklet in Bob Dylan's box set ''[[The Bootleg Series Volumes 1–3 (Rare & Unreleased) 1961–1991]]'' describes his involvement in this album: "Dylan dropped by and was just hanging out, living in a tent at the bottom of the garden. He would sneak into the studio to see what was going on." Dylan offered his new, unrecorded song "Seven Days" to Clapton.<ref name=Marty>{{cite book| last =Newman| first =Martin Alan| title =Bob Dylan's Malibu| publisher =EDLIS Café Press| year =2021| location =Hibbing, Minnesota| isbn =9781736972304}}</ref> Clapton passed on it, but [[Ronnie Wood|Ron Wood]] took him up on the offer and released it on his third solo album ''[[Gimme Some Neck]]''.<ref>{{cite book|title=The Bootleg Series Volumes 1–3 [Rare & Unreleased] 1961–1991|first=Bob|last=Dylan|publisher=Columbia Records (Compact Disc #47382)|year=1992}}</ref> The song "Innocent Times" is sung by [[Marcella Detroit|Marcy Levy]], who also shared vocals with Clapton on "Hungry".<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.eric-clapton.co.uk/collection/albums/noreasontocry.shtml|title=Album – No Reason To Cry|publisher=Eric-clapton.co.uk|access-date=17 August 2015}}</ref> In the bonus track "Last Night", added in the 1990 re-release, Clapton shares vocals with [[Richard Manuel]].
