Way to go Matt!

EC and Bobby weren’t a perfect team

There really kicking it ‼️

We LOVE you JIM wherever you are now... !!!

There is something very special about this song, with a young Clapton on lead vocals in the early '70s. I get tearful after he comes in, those tender vocals are powerful

I don't understand your description for the clip. Why shouldn't Duane have played on Layla?? Lol I don't get it.

Beautiful drumming. Great drive and swing without rushing the time. A fine art, indeed. Natural talent right there

Half our pass midnight with rain..

Disgusting person I KNOW this man!! He's not q good person

🤮

First part is not Derek and the Domi oes ------- seco d is a song xalled Evil without lyrics foloewd bt Let it Rain?..... Evil was recorded in April and May in england 😢.

One of the very best musical line ups ever seen. Legendary stuff this band. Clapton still plays this song today , his 70th birthday at the UK Royal Albert Hall is a great live version.

This song was not let it rain originally, Clapton used the instrumental track from another song and dubbed the words to let it rain, I once had that song on a random cassette tape. Wish I still had it !!!

the supergroup of ALL time....THE DREAM TEAM!

What? No Duane on Layla..seriously they were the best together.., then we probably wouldnt have key to the highway as well , im so glad they got together. Soon after Duane was gone.

Let it rain is so much better than the studio recording because this band freaking smokes. Gordon Radle and Whitlocks organ and backing vocals smashes like nothing else Wow 😳

Jim Gordon held a groove better than anybody. D&D and Cream best Clapton ever got

Marc weeks That's one of the most incredible reads. I was aware of his incarcerations, but you give it a personal melancholy touch. The list of musicans that Clapton has lost, a heavy burden.

Darla here. Lost your contact information. Number changed. Beth gets her masters degree in a couple of weeks from Ohio state. I guess I could send you a letter. Hope you are well.

RIP Jim Gordon. A great drummer

It sounds like Jim Gordon had some jazz influence in his drumming.

Bobby Whitlock is STILL the shit now. Austin TX now still cranking it out.

Yes they were the best rock band in the world then and always will be.

First heard this in the early 70’s. Found the record in my dad’s collection and was blown away. Then discovered Mountain Jam on eat a peach. Both songs from the Fillmore I believe. From that point on was hooked on both bands. Then got a guitar, of course. Thanks for the memories!!

i need way more cowbell 😁

Just listened to Chicago live from Carnegie Hall version of "Ballet for a girl in Buchannon" and couldn't help but think of this Jim Gordon drum playing and solo, it sure sounds like it influenced Danny Seraphine a lot... kzbin.info/www/bejne/joeVfoyDlqerg68

Thank you "Skivideos" for sharing this recording. .... In the photo above L-R are Jim Gordon (drums), Carl Radle (bass), Bobby Whitlock (keyboards, vocals) , Eric Clapton (vocals, guitar). Clapton and Whitlock continue to perform in 2023. RIP Carl Radle (great bassist) and Jim Gordon (great drummer).

I prefer Eric Clapton's version. Regardless, thank you.

Everybody's bigging up Jim Gordon, but how about Carl Radle HOLDING DOWN THAT MF BASS?! Like goddamn, dude is killing it, keeping up with Clapton like nobody's business

what a shame this band didnt carry on

I used to see Jim Gordon several times a week where I used to work, which was the California Medical Facility in Vacaville, CA. Gordon was incarcerated there and hospitalized on the inpatient medical unit. I would scan documents into the electronic medical records for the patients on the unit, and occasionally Gordon would stop off at the nurses' station to ask a question. He looked nothing like the tall, strapping young man of his drumming years. I heard from one of the nurses that he had asked for a book from the prison library about rock stars. One can only imagine what he might have wanted with that. He played on lots of popular records, so he may have been trying to remember or maybe he wanted to show his fellow inmates who he had played drums with. I made damn sure though that everyone in that area knew who he had been at one time.

One of the great bands

Noah U BEE Right when Left

Hey Mike,come talk to me

K is al ways your friend

Jim Gordon was on form that night...cheers!

Clapton thought Duane Allman was a great asset on the Layla album.

The groove line...Drums A u t o pirate

Hope Jim Gordon still plays drums🙏

Are you serious about " another reason why Dwane Allman shouldn't have played on the Layla album "? I always loved Eric, but the reason that album is a classic is because Dwane played on it. Also WADR. This was not great playing by Clapton. Agree about Jim Gordon solo. It's great.

Layla unplugged was ok, but Clapton knew what he was doing when added Duane in the recording of Kayla.

All good here. 🎶 💗 😎

Oh My Lord! I danced,I sang,I loved,every bit pf this song!!!

This is excellent.

Its raining here in Sunny suck my Sac Cali. Let it rain.

Saw Eric at spectrum in Philly with Yvonne elerman. Lov this song

What a guitar solo !!!

Played this today on my stereo and was urged to adjust the speakers for maximum stereo effect . superb .

1st for me, holy...!!! Classic jam, let it rain on me.

Live version sounds more like Clapton than the studio version that sounds like George Harrison recorded it. I love how they influenced each other...
