I think it's pretty cool, looking forward to the new album.

I think it is reggae, and he's done it before (I Shot The Sheriff). The press release says the following:
"The first single from Eric Clapton's upcoming album "Back Home" finds him exploring reggae, which he's done to great success before. "Revolution," which Clapton cowrote with producer Simon Climie, features a loping rhythm, horns, understated guitar work, female backing vocalists, and a sing-along chorus. "Revolution" is out now, while the album is due August 30, 2005."
