John mayall and the bluesbreakers! If want go deep down eric claptons rabbit hole 😊

[@sharonelliott2366]

Never forget that Clapton began as, and still is, one of best and most influential lead guitar players of rock n roll, deeply rooted in the blues. He was in the Yardbirds, Derek and the Dominoes and Cream (check some of those performances). He ranked second in the Rolling Stone 100 greatest guitar players of all time in 2023. He's never been the best vocalist, but it is park of his kit. I think that often younger people than myself (74, grew up in that era) focus on the vocalist more and more rather than the bands. The bands are what made rock n roll. So with Clapton, you really must understand his guitar playing to understand what he is capable of. The guitar - that's what makes him sexy.

The background vocalist were saying Layla not saying yay yay. I first heard this song in 1972 when he was with Derek And The Dominos and it is a rocker. I have heard every version of Layla since 1972 and they're all great in their own respect and time. I like them all. I finally saw Clapton in concert in 1998 and it is in my top 5 concerts that I have been to between 1974 and 2018.

@@karensilvera6694 Yeah I had a lot of those experiences when I was younger going to concerts in the 70's and 80's. The other thing was they would play in Dallas, Houston or Kansas City and I just couldn't make the trip. I got to see a lot of bands in the late 90's early 2000's that I didn't see in the 70's and 80's while they were still together, and in some cases like Tom Petty before he passed, and before ticket prices got stupid expensive.

Wonderful Tonight LIVE with the ever so beautiful haunting vocals by Katie Kissoon

[@rhphotocdn]

"Layla" is a song written by Eric Clapton and Jim Gordon, originally recorded with their band "Derek and the Dominos", as the thirteenth track from their only studio album, Layla and Other Assorted Love Songs (1970). Its contrasting movements were composed separately by Clapton and Gordon. The piano part has also been controversially credited to Rita Coolidge, Gordon's girlfriend at the time. Clapton originally wrote "Layla" as a ballad, with lyrics describing his unrequited love for Boyd, but the song became a "rocker" when, according to Clapton, Allman composed the song's signature riff.

[@elizabethfranco1284]

You of course reacted to Eric Clapton and Paul McCartney performance of George Harrison’s Something. That was for his first wife Patti Boyd. Eric was obsessed with her and would later marry her. Layla was for her and about her.

[@RobertErsson-sx5cy]

Its from Live Aid 85,in Philadelphia,lots of bands and artists,thats why it lots of crew on stage.

[@erickvermeulen9734]

So when Clapton recorded it with Derek and the Dominoes, that was over a decade earlier, a much younger Clapton. You could check out the 'supergroup' Cream in which he starred earlier.

[@elizabethfranco1284]

Britt this is a later performance but the song came out in the 1970’s when he was part of Derrick and the Dominos. Back in the 60’s he was in Cream and The Yardbirds. His main genre blues rock psychedelic blues,rock and roll he is counted as one of the tops electric guitarists .

[@richardfeldkamp1707]

There is a slowed down acoustic version of Layla that may have a little more PDC quality

[@terryaustin5976]

I was looking for this comment as I knew it had to be already said.

[@cariwaldick4898]

I just looked it up again. The SONG is PDC quality, but Clapton still looks like a teacher--even more so.

[@reneerocha1796]

I like the slower version.

[@patmccormick4597]

The slower acoustic version is like reminiscing about a lost love that you have come to terms with, as opposed to the quicker frantic pace of the intense breakup.

[@gmann5174]

The slower tempo Layla is an “unplugged,” non electric instrument, acoustic driven, tear eyed ballad.

[@barriehull7076]

He is the only three-time inductee to the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame: once as a solo artist, and separately as a member of the Yardbirds and of Cream. In his solo career, he has sold more than 280 million records worldwide, making him one of the best-selling musicians of all time.[12] In 1998, Clapton, a recovering alcoholic and drug addict, founded the Crossroads Centre on Antigua, a medical facility for those recovering from substance abuse.[13] Wikipedia.

In the mid 60's he was in The Yardbirds, then he joined John Mayall's Bluesbreakers for an influential album, then he formed the Cream, then Blind Faith, then a solo career starting with Derek and the Dominos in 1970, which is where this song about George Harrison's wife came from.

[@richdiddens4059]

@@randyhochstein8455 Plus there were a few very short lived super groups in between like Eric Clapton's Powerhouse. These groups often only recorded from 1 to 5 songs. Also he "sat in" on several Beatle's songs and Ringo Starr's All Stars. And don't forget playing with all the greats and near greats at the Cross Roads guitar festivals. He basically played with almost everybody.

[@nedworcester4395]

Clapton had many different looks throughout his career. He started at 18 in 63 with the Yardbirds, then joined John Mayall’s Blues-breakers in 65, then Cream in 66, and then one album with Blindfaith in 69, followed by one album with Delaney, Bonnie & Friends also in 69, then Derick & the Dominoes in 70. His solo career followed until the present. I’ve given you this info because I know you would enjoy his early fashion sense. Type in Clapton & each band to look at the images. You may think one of the younger more fashionable Claptons might be a contender for the PDC.

[@Cheryworld]

many years ago, someone, trying to be ironic, nicknamed Claption: "Slowhand" This is one of the greatest rock songs, he started out like this, a rock guitarist.

[@Gr8Buccaneer]

Slowhand has nothing to do with the speed he plays guitar.back in the 60s he played with "the yardbirds" and he used thin strings,for easier bending.they broke pretty much often and eric replaced them on stage.while he was doing this,the audience started to "slowly handclap".the owner of the club they played in,thought the name would nail it and called him Slowhand Clapton :)

[@vincentnicoletti]

Saw him live many times, just one of the best guitar players to walk the earth and a good voice too.but he can play it all and compose too. Also quite intelligent. Play the song wonderfull tonight the ladies love it and a great slow dance song. You may change your mind about pdc

[@brittreacts]

I’ll check it out!

[@mikemelfa]

Not that you’ve listened to this version, check out his Unplugged version. It’s a totally different vibe, more jazzy and bluesy… but also a masterpiece. P.S. the background “yeah yeah” was actually “Layla” P.S.S. The drummer was Phil Collins who you should also react to soon.

[@quintondees4501]

This guy is incredible, keep checking him out. This was "the first side" of eric Clapton

[@BrendanAshton]

As a 52 year old man Layla was the first track which brought Eric Clapton and I bought it on single. Though it was released as Derek and the Dominoes I knew who it was but it opened me up to a whole raft of music his solo, then Cream and finally back to Derek and the Dominoes

[@carnacthemagnificent2498]

Your accustomed to post-heroine Clapton, after he got clean his music got more poppy or introspective with lots of folk influence but his early years he was a huge pioneer of blues based rock, playing with aggression and energy that he just didn't show later. This is a song from the end of that early period. Was it because of heroin? I don't know, just the timing corresponds. "Clapton is God" was the mid-60s version of a meme, check out his playing from that period (Bluesbreakers Featuring Eric Clapton, Cream) to hear why.

[@craigreid7178]

You truly need to see Eric in Cream - that was him at his absolute peak. Also this song is from Derek and the Dominoes featuring Eric. You will see a much more aggressive Eric with more punch and sting if you react to some Cream.

[@richardoliver3109]

Phil Collins on the drums, he did a set at Wembley stadium then on concord to philly to play this set with Eric

[@ricktaylor5397]

He also does a beautiful acoustic version of this song.

[@victorplekter613]

Your comments are fair. Let me just say that he was not know for flash, it was his bluesy rock guitar playing and song writing. He was highly influential in the 60's and is definitely one of the standard bearers of Rock music. You've reacted to Prince doing "While my guitar gently weeps." Prince was doing Eric Clapton's guitar solo (in a crazy show-off way). Anyways I love your reactions!

[@robertnomann6194]

The background singers are saying “Layla” NOT “yeah, yeah”. DUH!!

[@jlb6]

The entire record (Layla and Other Assorted Love songs, in my opinion captures unrequited love like no other. Patti married both George and Eric and was considered the biggest muse. Her sister married Mick Fleetwood. When Peter Green started Fleetwood Mac, he named it after Mick and Mac (McVie the bass player). On the original recordings it is the interplay with Duane Allman just before he passed that made it a blues rock masterpiece. Have You Ever Loved a Woman, Key to the Highway, and a Thorn Tree on the Garden

[@jondhuse1549]

There are those who say this is the best rock and roll song of all time. Period.

[@dougleclaire9424]

This is his signature and most famous sound of his repertoire and history. This is "LAYLA" That is what the background singers are saying. This is IT ....this is his MOST famous concert piece of all time! Now you know.

[@mlong1958]

Another song written about Pattie Boyd. This is the original instrumentation. He later recorded it as more of a slow, acoustic ballad that has the same words, but sounds like a completely different song. That is the song that will put him in the PDC. You need to watch the MTV Unplugged version. There is a reason that people used to graffiti "Clapton is God" on walls. He is one of the OG guitar gods. He is the only person to be inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame three separate times. He is the lead guitarist on The Beatles, "While My Guitar Gently Weeps." Duane Allman originally played the slide guitar on "Layla" when he and Eric were in Derrick and the Dominos. During this performance, that is Phil Collins on one of the drum kits.

[@troypullen7469]

[@fittrad3r687]

As others have said, the studio version of this produced by Tom Dowd, with Duane Allman playing his amazing slide is rock history. That Derek and The Dominos album is one of the greatest ever.

[@RusticReflection]

Eric Clapton unplugged Layla is the best version of this song. It's best heard in an acoustic manner, within a small venue. Check it out. Much more intimate.

[@JEmmertz]

Live Aid was a massive thing!! I watched nearly all the hours of that, and I only regret that I couldn't be there in person. The skills and masters that entered that stage (those stages really) was unheard of.

[@flm954]

Masterpiece by EC, with a little help from Duane Allman who came up with the opening riff and provided some energy in the studio when the song was orignially recorded in 1970. The piano-based coda was originally played by drummer Jim Gordan, and was based, at the least, on a Rita Coolidge idea. Renowned producer Tom Dowd spliced it on to the end of Layla. Lot of events led to this two-part song.

[@reneerocha1796]

Layla was first recorded by Derek and The Dominoes (including Eric Clapton, Duane Allman, Bobby Whitlock and others). That version of Layla sounded very much like this one. Some time later, Clapton recorded an "unplugged" version of Layla - which sounds very different.

[@lunadyana3330]

Eric Clapton, Cream, The Yardbirds, Blind Faith, John Mayall & the Bluesbreakers, Derek and the Dominos. He played with the Beatles, Bob Dylan, BB King, Buddy Guy, Freddy King, Albert King, Stevie Ray Vaughan, and on and on and on! Used to be you would walk into a public men's room and see “Clapton is God” on the wall. Undeniably one of the VERY BEST guitarists known to mankind.

[@geoffsimpkins7650]

For quintessential Clapton, try “Sunshine of your Love” and “Cocaine”.

[@richarddaugherty8583]

The backup singers are singing "Layla". This is an alternate arrangement to the original recording. Clapton had fallen in love with Patti Boyd, George Harrison's wife. She eventually divorced Harrison and married (and later divorced) Clapton. Which, strangely, didn't break up the friendship between Clapton and Harrison. There is also the Arabic legend of Layla and her lovers search for her. You should react to the unplugged version Clapton did several years later on acoustic guitar. It's a great blues! Kind of like when Neil Sedaka re-released Breaking Up Is Hard to Do, which originally was a doo-wop song, but the later version was like a smokey blues torch song. You would also like Clapton performing Hoochie Coochie Man at the inaugural Crossroads concert. Fire!

[@TexasMagnolia]

Remains my favorite Clapton song! Clapton is definitely in the PDC!

[@davidscott129]

If you want to feel the essential Clapton, react to "Bad Love". He has Phil Collins on drums, Nathan East on bass, and Greg Phillingames on keys, and it's pure gold.

[@badbob6689]

There is also a acoustic (unplugged) version of this song which is really good. Clapton mellow? In his early years with Yard birds and Derrick and the dominos (where this song came out). Big long catalogue of music.

[@artmanjohn2]

Go back in the late 60's and my favorite period in the early to mid 70Ss. Every decade brings a different sound and a different look for Eric. I've seen Eric Clapton possibly 6 times total and one time with Jeff Beck and Jimmy Paige together on one stage in the mid 80s. Try "Change the World" by Eric Clapton that's a sexy one for the TBC, react to the studio version!

[@steveholland5689]

This is part of holy trilogy of rock & roll. Along with Stairway to Heaven and Freebird.

[@ElSantoLuchador]

Duane Allman played the lead on the recorded version. The triplet riff in the intro is all Duane. If you're an Allman Brothers fan you will recognize the style immediately. Also, Duane's guitar was named "Layla". I only say this because this song was most definitely a collaborative effort.

[@lharrill7229]

He's a good looking man. Got better & better as he got older. Back ground singers are singing "Lay..La" You know, the title of the song.

[@MrGaryGG48]

Britt, I'm certainly not any expert here but his life changed dramatically on March 20, 1991, when his son fell from a high rise apartment in New York City. His music changed too. I suspect the tone of his music changed with all the rest that came down upon Eric. I can't imagine the pain he went through at that time.

He's delivering constantly about decades so you may find your pdc vocals maybe the Core one of my all Time Favorit From the Album Slowhand Btw. Like to hang out on your Channel from time to time ❤️‍🔥☮️

This version is good, but the original recording, from 1970 (Derek and the Dominos), is the best for me. I don't think there is a live version, but you need to check it out.

The greatest rock guitarist ever who happens to sing, too. Like Louis Armstrong was a trumpeter who also sang. The ending is so damn cool! Play "White Room" which was much earlier still.
