Love you forever, my Leyla♥️

“Slowhand “ at his blush best!

Still listening to this Master pièce in 2024 ❤

The original was FREEDOM ROCK, man! Turn it up!

Of all the versions of Layla i like the original version 7:09 minutes but after i learned the Jim Gordon's ripping off the piano part from his ex Rita Collidge with her not being credited as the owner of the piano part,i have to say this the BEST version of Layla.

Now this is The unplugged version of the lead he does in the second course that is still phenomenal to this day not the practice are the ones y'all probably seen but actually we can't seem to find the one where you can actually watch him do the lead but I guess it's better than nothing

This is the best version of this song

that is my name

Vaya grabación más mala hizo la mtv en su día, solo se oye el gentio y un burro que habría en la sala aquel día...

I heard unplugged first and was like fuckkk this is awesome

Hay una Leyla que me tiene realmente loquito. 😍😍😍😍

This is the best song about a man living in a robot's I've ever heard!

2:57-3:35 Absolute genius, my all time favourite acoustic riff- Years on, still WOW! ❤

No.

Who won ? You or Derek! Lol

Hasn't his guy made enough that he can't let the original video post without paying royalties???

Definitely the most definitive version of this brilliant song 😊

I remember this exact recording was constantly played on the local radio station back when I started the fourth grade at a new school. It was a hard year for me but music, including this song, helped me cope.

the pianist is whatever this song needed... sealed the envelope

Genius.

Both are great 👍! Unplugged is Flawless!

O Eric Clapton é um merda de um Anti Vacina. Mas um músico genial .

I always look forward to the WHOO!! Guy every time..lol

AME

2:55

For you sweetheart, love you so much

2024🎶🎵

I thought this was an original.

Eric is massively underrated as a guirtarist.

💟

Shout out to Ian Garry

I love both versions 💖🔥💖🔥💖🔥💖🔥💖

Eric Clapton wrote for Patty Boyd Beatles George's Harrison wife, She would leave George Harrison and marry Eric Clapton .

Is there not video footage of this performance??

I love this version of Layla so much I learnt it on the guitar and almost play along to it every day since about 8 months ago, the solos never get boring !

Yeah this version is better than the original, the good part of the original Derek and the Dominos version is the riff that Clapton put o. The track. This version is almost a completely different song but BETTER

these guys are truly amazing Clapton, Frey,,Plant..so many to mention from that era very talented real stand up men in spite of tradgity always write great meanful music im 49 & always look up to theae guys im glad i was around in there prime God bless!✨💫🌠💥💯😊

The question is not whether or not this version is "better than the original." It's a question of whether, having already DONE the original, Clapton could come up with some way of doing the song that made it WORTH having a second recording of it in his major-album catalogue. It doesn't matter whether you prefer this version, with its perfect moody swagger, or the original with Duane's soaring slide and the incredible piano coda by the tragically troubled Jim Gordon. What matters is that each version gives us something that the other doesn't, making BOTH versions of the song indispensable. I can't think of another artist who has done such a powerful transformative cover of their own song. Maybe Mark Knopfler, in his 1986 "Calypso verison" of So far Away, comes close. But this is a one-of-a-kind redux.

This version of this song is why my daughter's name is Layla.

very classic 73 years old now and remember this song live at Albert hall still play this song in the quite of night in Botswana

One of the sickest songs of all time.

The history guy would be more spiuti bout the last battle.... light brigade & that x

I was there

Not ONE , NOT ONE of these fucking audience members new what this song was UNTIL Clapton says LAYLA!! That’s a fact!! Dip shits and sycophants!! By the way, GREAT VERSION of this classic, better than the original version, in my humble opinion!!

My name is Layla and my husband sang this song for me with 2 other guitarists on the wedding. That was unforgettable🫶🏻

2023 and I still love this song

i consider myself lucky to be named after this specific version of the song. thanks dad!!!
