Eric Clapton has done 2 versions of "Layla" over the years. One faster rock version when he was with Derek &The Dominos & this slowed down version. Both are great!

This song is about his former wife, Patti Boyd, who at one time was married to George Harrison. Eric and George were best friends when he fell in love with her. He also wrote, "Wonderful Tonight" for her and George wrote, "Something" for her while with The Beatles.

This was his appearance on the MTV series Unplugged. Each episode a different artist, known for their electronically amplified work, was invited to do acoustic versions of their hits. The cd of Clapton's performance sold 26 million copies, and became the best selling live album of all time, at least up until then, not sure if it's ever been surpassed.

I think that this is the MTV unplugged, and before he started playing ,he said "see if you recognize this one", started playing and everyone cheered. He looked surprised, but as he played on, more people realized what he was playing and cheered louder. You might want to watch the whole concert(?) just to see his range

I'm not sure if you know the story of this song...so George Harrison was married to Patti Boyd (who he met during the making of the Beatles film "Hard Days Night" which is PHENOMENAL. SOOOO...he was close friends with Eric, who fell in love with Patti & wrote this song about/for her. Patti & Eric met up & he played it for her & she ended up leaving George for Eric. Incredibly, George couldn't have acted with more grace. He remained friends with Eric. Later, Patti left Eric due to his horrific addiction to heroin, etc. George had gone on to marry Olivia, & she continues to keep his memory & music alive along with their son, Dhani.

You guys definitely have to check out the Beatles song "While My Guitar Gently Weeps" off of the Beatle's "White Album". The song features Eric Clapton on Lead Guitar. Eric and George Harrison were best friends, and Eric was the only other guitarist ever invited to perform on a Beatles track. I know you guys will dig it! Peace

Eric has a house and recording studio in Antigua. Me and my mate installed all the solar panels and batteries there. The guys playing keyboards (Chuck) and tambourine (Ray Cooper) were often visitors. You may have seen Ray playing with Elton John last month at Glastonbury. He also plays with the Rolling Stones.

Somehow you got the “outtake” version of this song. How do I know? I've heard the actual version many many times since it was released in 1992. What he's wearing is different from the true DVD version. The way he sings the song is different from actual version. Chuck Leavel's piano is vastly different. And most important, Clapton's solo is totally different. His solo on Layla, imho, is the finest acoustic solo that's he's ever done. I remember every note and pause. Try to get the actual version. However, although not the version that was in the MTV broadcast and was on the DVD, it was incredible. Thank you for posting this and thank you for making the song the most important part, and not trying to make it about your comments, like every other “Hearing first time…”. video. I've subscribed. Thx again.

Eric Clapton has stated. He loves the blues. He did rock and roll to earn a wage. But later on. And recently. He's done some fantastic blues work. And especially with BB king and all the other great guitar and blue singers.. The song Layla. Was written for one of the Beatles wives. That he was crushing on and later married. But then divorced..

Now that you have a nice sample of Clapton it's time to move over to a frequent early collaborator of his, Steve Winwood. He started at 12, went pro at about 13, and joined the Spencer Davis Group at 14 ( I'm a Man and Gimme Some Lovin'). He was with Clapton in Blind Faith (Can't Find My Way Home). And he spent several years in Traffic (Dear Mr. Fantasy, Low Spark of High Heeled Boys, John Barleycorn Must Die, 40,000 Headmen, Medicated Goo, etc.). Later he was a solo artist (Higher Love, Valerie, and my favorite was Roll With It).

Hey guys I haven't watched the reaction yet, but... There are a couple more titles from "Slow Hand" that you will enjoy, "Lay Down Sally" and "The Core". Also another of his tunes that is REALLY popular in concerts is "Tulsa Time". And, he has shared the stage with many other artists over the years. Most notably in my mind is Sheryl Crow.

True story, when Jimi Hendrix was just starting out Eric Clapton and Paul McCartney went to go see him in a club. Hendricks, who love to use the whammy bar was going crazy. Paul McCartney said the Clapton He's going to be out of tune because he stretching the strings and sure enough Hendrix was out of tone, he noticed Clapton in the audience and ask him to come up and help him retune his guitar. You cannot get any more I respect than that. Paul McCartney tells a story on the Howard Stern show
