I named my daughter Layla after this song!!! I had her name picked out since I was 15, and I didn't have her until I was 30 😆
Oh wow😳 lol
@@OfficialLifeWithRecklezz my dad named me erik after this guy !
Surely one of the best albums ever! Bell Botomed Blues, Anyday and Tell the Truth just a few great tracks.
Love when our young people appreciate the music 🎶🎶 that I grew up with. . Keep it alive young man! ✌️
Appreciate you so much!
You'll find that Eric Clapton's leads stay mostly "within the music", unlike many others. Jimmy Page would get much wilder, and I like him, too, a lot. But I like Clapton's style a lot as well. You'll hear more of his heavier stuff if you listen to Cream. The riff in Layla is one of the top guitar riffs of all time, for me.
Those are two of my favorite guitarists! Jimmy takes the 1st position just because i love how much he stretched himself when he played both top 3 of all time!
His song Tears in Heaven is fantastic and as a father tears me up every time I hear it.
Can’t listen to it. That Poor baby
@@mztweety1374 it is difficult to listen to, knowing the story. 💁🏻♀️😢
This was one of my husband’s favorite songs. Thank you for your reaction! Have a blessed day!
Thank you! Have a blessed day as well!
I like EC.
Legend has it that when asked how does it feel to be the greatest guitarist ever his reply was “Ask Prince.” I love Prince (more my generation too)
Love this song but I also love you giving the facts and history of the artist very very helpful
Only 3 time RnR Hall of Famer too, The Yardbirds, Cream 🔥 and solo.
Saw him twice, first time in early 80s, next time 13th row, paid a ton for that ticket but worth it. Carry on...DEEP rabbit hole, Enjoy!! 🥳🔥❤👍🏽
That's David Sanborn on a saxophone, you could check out little wing with Eric and Sheryl Crow from the same concert.
Wonderful Tonight and Old Love are songs from this same concert you'll enjoy!!♥️👍
Highly recommend his acoustic version of layla, it's the same song equally as good but with a completely different feel.
Eric Clapton is one of the greatest guitar players of all time. He was in several bands over the years: Yardbirds, Cream, Derek and the Dominos, Blind Faith, Delaney and Bonnie and Friends as well as an extensive solo career. His music is fantastic, you should take some time to get to know some more of it. I absolutely love this song. The studio version of this song (the long version, Dereck and the Dominos) is breathtaking because it has Duane Allman also playing guitar and the two of them together gives me goosebumps just thinking of it. I have seen Clapton live a few times, he is such a humble person, shy and soft spoken. It is hard to believe when you see him performing like a boss then slipping into his quiet and introverted self as he thanks the audience for the applause he somehow seems to believe he doesn't deserve. Clapton's nickname has always been "Slowhand" and to watch him play is mind boggling because he barely moves his fingers and yet he is able to bend notes out that make you wonder where they came from. Thank you for your reaction.
I like how you take the time to learn about the artist
Always love this song
Tears in heaven, will have you crying
Check out his acoustic 1992 mtv unplugged version.
That’s where I first heard this song lol
Thanks for not pausing. You really need to listen to the original studio version. Jim Gordon’s piano is hauntingly beautiful.
He had the admiration from one of his idols Rock's 1st guitar hero Mike Bloomfield. Layla and Other Assorted Love Songs album ranks as one of the greatest guitar albums. Ranks up there with Jimi Hendrix's Electric Ladyland, Roy Buchanan's Loading Zone and Chet Atkins and Les Paul's Chester and Lester.
Almost 30 years ago I discovered my LOVE of Blues music through Clapton's music; I have never looked back.
Layla was the wife of george harrison ..he was so in love that het wrote this song for her...and also wonderful tonight ...he later married her ..patti
I love 💕 love 💕 💕 Eric Clapton I think he's underrated as a vocalist and as a guitarist.I like ALOT of solo stuff,Cream was good a little on psychedelic side for my taste. this is a really great song it was in many things but it was in a Goodfellas if you've ever seen that.
Underrated as a guitarist? On which planet?
I thought I'd try to shed some light on two very hot button issues & the controversies that followed which Eric was involved in which people are mentioning. Feel free to add onto or correct anything I've gotten wrong.
BACKGROUND:
After World War II ended in '45, Britain needed immigrants to help with the resconstruction of their economy. The Royal Commission wanted only white Eurpeans to come but eventually opened it's doors to people from Pakistan, India, the Caribbean, etc.
In the 50's the influx created a backlash from racist policy makers who wanted to keep Britain mainly a white country.
By the '60's most citizens felt too many immigrants had been let it citing concerns for violence & poor communities.
In the '70s, the'1976 Race Relations Act' was passed to ensure racial equality and protect immigrants. The impact the immigrants made in helping Britain get back on its feet in those two decades was huge.
I have many friends in the U.K. and they all tell me that today, the population is beautifully diverse & race is pretty much a non-issue. (British folks, chime in if that's not your experience)
WHEN & WHAT HAPPENED:
So... back up to 1976 when 'The Race Relations Act' was passed. Political & racist comments had even spilled over amongst some rock stars. It was then that an extremely intoxicated (that's no excuse) Clapton was onstage & made an absolutely abhorant rant regarding the immigration using awful racial slurs. To me, his opinions he spewed were hateful & ignorant at best.
FALLOUT & CONSEQUENCES:
“I was so ashamed of who I was, a kind of semi-racist, which didn’t make sense. Half of my friends were black, I dated a black woman and I championed black music.”
- Eric Clapton
Clapton’s bizarre outburst, which helped spur the Rock Against Racism movement, saw him labeled a racist for many years, and he has subsequently apologized many times, blaming his addiction to drink and drugs for the outburst.
WHAT HAPPENED WITH COVID?
Next... Jump forward to 2020 when Eric took an outspoken political stance against the Covid vaccine & lockdown. He based it on his own personal experience with the vaccine which he said was "disastrous". His hands & feet froze up and felt numb & frozen for 2 weeks. The vaccine which was advertised as "safe" caused a severe reaction for him. He also spoke out against mandated lockdown. “I’ve been a rebel all my life, against tyranny and arrogant authority, which is what we have now,” Clapton wrote.
MY PERSONAL THOUGHTS:
I'm not in any way excusing Clapton's rant nearly 50 years ago but I hope people also discuss his apologies made & philanthropic charities he supports. I like to look at the circumstances in which something happened, growth, & the sum total of someone's life - not just one piece.
The pandemic, mandated lockdowns, masks, & shot requirements were a divisive issue period. People lost life long friendships over it. Public sentiment spanned from "You better wear a mask & get your required shot or you're selfish & endangering the life of others" to "there's no way the government is telling me what to do & Fauci is an idiot". Eric is a rock legend so any opinion expressed publicly are big news. If you don't agree with him, it's even bigger news.
Sorry this was so long....
Hopefully I got at least some facts correct. Again, feel free to chime in with respectful discussion. I ALWAYS love to learn!

You need to do his song No more tears in Heaven it’s a song about his son that fell out off a 53rd story apartment balcony . Also Phil Collins wrote a song for his son they are real good friends that song is called Since I Lost you
The piano coda was written by Jim Gordon and Rita Coolidge. You may recognize it from the movie Goodfellas.
The song was written for Pattie Boyd, who was at the time married to George Harrison of the Beatles, and later became the first wife of Eric Clapton. The song was based on a book called Layla and Majnun.
The guy who made me pick up the guitar 16 years ago
One of the great bangers of all time.
Not the unplugged version, please 🙏 😢 The original studio track from 'Layla and other assorted Love Songs' -Derek and the Dominos is definitive, although there may be some live versions with adequately sympathetic support.
Okay!! So sorry I jumped the gun, guessing from the thumbnail before it was released that it was the unplugged/acoustic version, which has its fans and advocates. This is, in fact, as good a live version as I've heard.
I'd be surprised if you haven't yet done Clapton with Cream - 'Sunshine of Your Love', 'White Room', 'Crossroads', or 'Badge', co-written with Beatle George Harrison whose wife Patti the entire album by Derek and the Dominoes - 'Layla and Other Assorted Love Songs' was dedicated to. Patti and Eric eventually married with George's blessing, and the two guitar greats remained friends right up until George's death. Eric hosted and led the band for the tribute to George held a year later at the Royal Albert Hall. A must-see show.
Check out Eric's take on Jimi Hendrix' 'Stone Free', Stevie Wonder's 'Higher Ground' or 'Presence of the Lord' and 'Can't Find My Way Home' with the supergroup he formed with Cream drummer, Ginger Baker and ex-Spencer Davis group singer/keyboardist/guitarist Stevie Winwood after Cream's demise. Also worthwhile, anything from the Cream reunion concerts from 2005. Rest In Peace and Power, Jack Bruce and Ginger. No fighting please, or you're headed to the basement. lololoh hell.
Also from the 'Layla' album, 'Have You Ever Loved A Woman' and 'Bell Bottom Blues'.
It's the video with 146 million views - LIVE at Madison Square Garden in 1999 which is 8 minutes long. I love the smile on Eric's face when he plays the iconic opening riff. The bass player jumps with excitement. Excellent version for Rico to see.

Both versions are 🔥
YES!
I’m with you regarding the unplugged version. I just thought it missed the mark
Great song
"If you want to get down", check out his version of 'Cocaine'. Great reviews!
Listen to Its In The Way That You Use It by him. Tears in Heaven and Wonderful Tonight also
From the great album "Derek and the Dominoes."
*ERIC CLEPTON I APPRECIATE HIM AS A MUSICIAN , HE DON'T HAVE SOME HIT SONG THIS IS HIT IN HIS CARIER AND MAYBE ONE TWO MORE*
He really did steal Layla from George Harris, he was friends with Pete Townsend from The Who and asked him to take him to George Harrison's house so he could talk to Layla and tell her in private to leave George Harrison. Eventually she did
Layla a pseudonym for Pattie Boyd. Between George Harrison/The Beatles, and Eric Clapton 10 songs were written about her. She did divorce George for Eric. She later divorced Eric over his alcoholism and drug addiction.
Legend!
Check the live of "OLD LOVE" from this same concert I believe..... Thanks for this one....
While this version is good, the definitive version is from Derrick and the Dominoes which featured both Clapton and Duane Allman on guitar.
For me the second half of this song resonates far more than the first half. Not sure why but just very melancholic.
Now, ya need to do it UNPLUGGED.
Legend 👌
Slow hand doin his thing
Great song great artist but always reminds me of Goodfellas and all of Jimmy’s bodies found while paranoid lol
My favorite Eric Clapton song. The song is about Patti Boyd, wife of George Harrison, who will leave him for Clapton.
I recommend 1985 Live Aids "She's Waiting" for your next reaction. You won't regret it!
Wow big boy shit bruh lets go
right now Germany 's number 1 is also Layla by DJ Robin & Schuerze :)
SO YEAH YOU CAN HEAR THE ORIGINAL ON ( DEREK AND THE DOMINOES ) 70 ALBUM : LAYLA AND OTHER ASSORTED LOVE SONGS, A GREAT GREAT ROCK ALBUM AND ANOTHER BAND CLAPTON WAS WITH :) LOTSAAAAAA ERIC YOU CAN TAKE IN, HE WAS 5 -6 BANDS BEFORE HE STARTED HIS OWN SO :) YARDBIRDS, CREAM, DEREK AND THE DOMINOES, BLIND FAITH, AND A FEW OTHERS :)
The song is written for the wife of George Harrison one of the Beatles whom he had a relationship with.
Boy can play
My Granddaughter’s name is Layla ….. we love this song she not so much lol cause people walk up to her all the time and sing the song to her LOL …. She’s like Memo can’t they just say my name without singing the song . She’s 20 now and she will listen to the song with me and will stop people singing the song to her now . She’s like Memo don’t they know he’s talking about Ringo Starr’s wife how he’s in love with another man’s wife shhheshhh lol
George Harrison's wife Patti. They later married. 'Wonderful Tonight' and 'Have You Ever Loved A Woman' are also written about her.
@@damonhines8187 I meant George I’m sorry had a phone call and was talking to my cousin about the Beatles and she is in love with Ringo that’s why it I typed in wrong name .
@@lisaray9944 no worries, love, everyone makes mistakes. I'm probably in the middle of one or two today already.
🙃🤣🤪
@@damonhines8187 LOL 😂 I do it all time my grandkids call it senior moments
@@lisaray9944 🧔♀️➡️👴I have 'em too! 😵💫🤪
An amazing musician with a huge legacy. Held some pretty hateful and appalling views in the 1970s but thankfully turned his back on all that.
Hoooo Slowhand !!!
React to "Out Of The Black - Royal Blood" and other songs, pls❤️🇧🇷
Eric’s nickname is Slowhand
☮️💙💙💙🔥
Not to bad for someone who was told he was to slow to be a guitar player. Hence the nickname slowhand.
Tears in heaven next, song is deep deep
Please check out No Alibis & Pretending 🔥🔥🔥🔥
Clapton and Tina Turner ,. Tearing Us Apart,
Ever see Goodfellas?🤌🏾😀
RIP Uncle Ray Liotta
Check out nofx radio you will love the vibe
his nic-name is slow hand , he's tight with money , he never buys a pint
I like this version a lot, but it is a little too “clean” for me. The studio version that he did in the 70s is more emotional.
The studio recording is better.
Listen to the original as the guitar is much better and more high pitched
Eric Clapton is a good guitarist but he would not get on the stage with Jimi Hendrix he could not keep up with him, so what does Hendrix do he demands to be on the stage with him Eric Clapton walks off stage pissed
Eric loved Jimi, was just shocked and intimidated on first hearing by his talent/genius. Jimi came out of the blocks slaying a song Eric loved but thought was too hard, I think 'Killing Floor', maybe. Jimi's manager Chas found Eric backstage shaking, trying to light a cigarette, and blurting out, "Is he REALLY that good?!" Chas knew of course he really was.
Clapton used to be my fav artist when I was younger. Now I can't even listen to him.
Once I found out he was a racist POS i just don't enjoy his music at all or have any desire to turn it on.
Sucks when you really enjoy music/movies & the ppl turn out to be garbage humans and it alters how you feel. I'm not one of those ppl who can disassociate one from the other and frankly I don't want to be.
Listen to the original from 1970 when Eric played nine parts, not this later live rubbish.
Like his guitar playing but my daughter was explaining to me that he has made a lot of racist comments over the years so I am not listening to him anymore😟.
Huge respect for Eric Clapton until recent revelations about the man's personal views... his political stances... and his rather sordid personal life... Before the internet, we couldn't have access to a music legend's history or personal profile... so, we could enjoy the music he created.
But now, that can of worms is open and Clapton's recent cozying up to demagogues, right wing politicians, and disregard for public health measures in a pandemic... as well as his past vocations about black folks in England, have been revealed... (This despite being a fan of 50's blues and the late B.B. King... but then again, so is an open racist like Ted Nugent)...
How the mighty have fallen...
Eric's not a sheep like you
Yeah you can definitely be a great musician and a terrible person at the same time. Prince taught me that.
Anyone can make his/her own decisions on which music to listen to and where his money is spent, but where does it end? Is music always political, and can we only listen to saints? Can you separate the music from the person? Is redemption possible? What about movie stars? Sports stars? It’s a slippery slope to navigate.
