Eric Clapton - Layla (Orchestra Night)

[@debbieward2220]

I was there. I had seats in row 2 so I was excited. When I got there, row 1 had been taken out for the cameras so I was right at the front! The best part was seeing the admiration on the faces of professionally trained musicians when they watched him play. Always has been, always will be my hero.

Epic👍

[@toddnute2403]

Just WOW! His fingers dancing on those high strings. And oh, that vibrato!

[@brettmick6221]

My favorite, seen him 12 times since 1972

I remember pulling over in my car to listen to this on the night when it first went out on the air - BBC Radio 1 In Concert wasn't it? It made me late for where I was going but I didn't care. Got goosebumps again watching this - thanks for uploading!

Graham Key Yup, I’ve still got the cassette somewhere from recording it!! That broadcast show (for my money) was the last night and the best of the bunch.

[@1403MN]

Sounds like the original Layla from Clapton Greatest Hits, also love Layla acoustic from Eric Clapton unplugged :]

[@jonathanmartin-ives8665]

I was thinking about my daughter, Layla today. Thank you for posting this💜

[@dabear1020]

Probably the best version of the second coda on youtube. While the first part is very good, the second part just has something about it....

[@Bluesquest]

I was there ! This was the top of the evening ! So much emotion !

[@nightspore73]

I recorded the 24 nights concert off TV in the early 90s and that version finished with this song. The DVD setlist is different. I'm guessing the other version must be available somewhere but it isn't on youtube as far as I can tell. Unfortunately the video cassette I had it on has not survived so I can't upload it :(

[@LordoftheJimmy]

Haha! Nathan channeling Jaco Pastorius with some Heavy Weather... awesome!

[@stratmad]

I always loved this performance for so many reasons one of which is Nathan East opening.

[@neuroboyhernancito]

Hermosa intro de bajo!!!!!!

[@glennc100]

Thank you, Jim Gordon

[@elizabethross8082]

Thank you Rita Coolidge

[@pabloperez4063]

I think Jim GOT It from Rita Coolidge, Who was in EC band in 70

[@glennc100]

I had no idea Rita Coolidge was involved. Thank you for letting me know!

[@nathanialm]

Please upload more from your hard drive. Is there any way to get this on dvd - extra bits? Have you got the I Shot the Sheriff?

[@dank1280]

How on earth did this not make the video?

[@brttmartin9]

The whole concert should be released Now 2022 - Whole!

[@ReptileFrankReynolds]

i wish i could get the I shot the Sheriff video from this show

[@JoshFreilich]

@bluesman368 I think it is. Ray Cooper, I think...

[@Smurf9131]

Not many can play to this standard!

[@Leo-uc8zv]

😂😂😂 Gary Moore would slaughter him

[@hd95]

Nice but do a search on "RAH 5-22-06 Layla (coda)" and you'll find the best live version of the Layla Coda and it's by Duane Allman incarnate Derek Trucks

[@Jas8631]

His best work is when he has Nathan East and Greg Phillinganes backing him.

[@pnolanrn]

Slow Handonam Thank you.

[@TheBrowling]

it didn't came out on the CD nor the Dvd version of 24 nights, did it? then where's this from?

[@henryman8331]

Jimmy was cutting every link between himself and the robbery, but it had nothing to do with me

[@1403MN]

whoops i meant to say, Eric Clapton : The Cream of Clapton, not greatest hits...

[@nathanialm]

There was a version of i shot the sheriff up from the same night but it dissapeared
