Just one great performance of this live. Probably my favorite, some of the best talent in the world. And one of the absolute best percussionist ever, Ray Cooper. That man loves his job!!!!
I've heard Eric say in an interview he doesn't like to play the lead guitar in this piece because he can't play it right, and usually delegates it to another guitarist. He got it right this time. Maestro.
before this summer i didn't know of this song. but every monday, in the hotel i'm working there is a barbecue night hosted with live music. one of those modays i heard the musicians play this song and sing it. ever since this song is allways played for me on modays :D
Jimi idolized Clapton and Clapton was overly impressed with Hendrix... which came first, the chicken or the egg? (I know Clapton came first... just think about it)
La cosa che mi ha fatto piangere è stata che questo video l'ho editato io sotto l'account Dappidu che è stato cancellato da TH-cam prendendolo dall'originale dvd...ma in realtà sono felice perchè ora so che quello che ho fatto ha dato emozioni ed è sopravissuto a sti stronzi. Bravi che l'avete scaricato e l'avete salvato...
even with the pick he plays the best and when mark plays it with his hands the best thumbs up if u know that mark used the fedrer guitar 2 r 3 times only and the other times he uses the epiphone guitar
I have looked for this music clip for a long time. I wanna know who the drummer was. He was just fantastic! And did they combine song from Dire Strait with Layla? Such a heavenly performance. Does anyone notice that the guitar on Eric's hands was SMOKING?????
OMG!!!! Mark, Clapton and Sir Elton John on the same stage. The world never will be the same!!
The world is going to be a sad place when these giants are gone :(
Knopfler and Clapton on guitar, doesn't get any better :)
I love how they all are just smiling so humbly at the final solo. :)
Mark Knopfler - Love this guy. He's a musicians guitarist.
For me this is the very best arrangement of LAYLA on TH-cam. Props to all of the musicians!
it starts like Romeo & Juliet
Merci youtube de me présenter ces merveilles que j'adooore
Two of the greatest guitarists of all time.. Cream were and still are an icon.... We would not have dire straits if they had not existed.
Just one great performance of this live. Probably my favorite, some of the best talent in the world. And one of the absolute best percussionist ever, Ray Cooper. That man loves his job!!!!
Great music - great guitars players - great solo = Eric and Mark
Positively, utterly, irrefutably incredible!!!!!
I cannot BELIEVE this is the first time I'm finding this video! Simply Wow!!!
I can actually feel his emotions towards layla his early years were good. Best guitar player ever to walk the earth.
Such a great version, what a group!!
Mark Knopfler, Eric Clapton and Elton John together and the result is: brilliant!
They did this concert together, with Knopfler and Clapton playing rhythm for each other and Elton John playing some of his songs.
IMHO, this is the very best performance of LAYLA!
while the guitar gently weeps.....awesome
One of the best solo's... EVER! Awesome stuff.
this is one of my favorite Clapton solos.
I would love to see Elton John, Eric Clapton & Mark Knopfler in concert together!! I say it would be fantastic!!!
Are you still alive?

best intro to any song ever!
You just won’t get guitarists like this no more or ever again fucking shame, Clapton is GOD
EVERY musician wants to get in on Layla at some point.
Wow ! This song gives me goosebumbs !
ERIC CLAPTON ONE OF THE BEST IN THE WORLD AND HIS HALF MONTREALER . EDWARD WALTER FRYER . 1920 1985 .YA BABY
A concert with a mix of music from all of the three artists. They also played some Dire Straits songs and some Elton John songs.
The best Clapton's Leyla live !Thanx for posting.
Fantastic.. Thanks for share the video.
Look! There is smoke going outa of Clapton's guitar at 3:18! He is just so good.
Absolutely unreal!
romeo and juliet keyboard riff - on layla, awesome!
time where they could smoke on stage, that is rock n roll
Oh my god, what a stellar performance! Evertone seems to enjoy themselves (except perhaps Elton)... It's a classic
Probably my favourite video on youtube.
Now that is super fine music.
absolutely amazing. so is the Jazz version
Замечательные артисты
Incredible Guitar playing. On par with Jimi Hendrix. Seriously.
Jimi idolized Clapton and Clapton was overly impressed with Hendrix... which came first, the chicken or the egg? (I know Clapton came first... just think about it)
THE BEST VERSION!!
Pure musical bliss
I'd want to cry but i could not see the video if i'd did so i do not. Or I could simply hear it, it ever would be great !
Yes! That is a quote from Weather Report

damn i freaking love this version woaww.
Masters of music
That bass player has soul :P
Jack Smith Nathan East, one of the best, if not, the best bass session player living nowadays!
7:40, la cara de Clapton lo dice todo: ni él puede creer el tema que compuso!!! Como lo disfruta!
awesome version of layla
i love the opening it makes me wish i was in thise days
I love this version
No es la ropa, ni como se ven , es la Magia que sale al juntar, Eric clapton, su Majestad Mark Knopfler, y Mister Elton John.
This is very best of music! Привет из России!
Привет Россия ! Как дела ? Мир был неуважение вас в последнее время .
This is the very best Layla!
The look on Clapton”s face at 7:43 says it all.
AWESOME............................THE BEST :-)
When the Giture is smoking!😍
Eric Clapton is so cool his guitar smokes.
What concert is this from and does anyone have the ability to get the whole thing on a DVD? FANTASTIC
Amazing
Why did it ever end!
magistral
yes the piano is a piano of romao and juliette because alan clark was a member of big DIRE STRAITS
best version
even with the pick he plays the best and when mark plays it with his hands the best thumbs up if u know that mark used the fedrer guitar 2 r 3 times only and the other times he uses the epiphone guitar
I have looked for this music clip for a long time. I wanna know who the drummer was. He was just fantastic! And did they combine song from Dire Strait with Layla? Such a heavenly performance.
Does anyone notice that the guitar on Eric's hands was SMOKING?????
CEK cooking yeah man. They used the intro to the live versions of Romeo and Juliet. Nice touch 🎸
Best version ever with mark knopfler, elton john, natha east and ray cooper?
Best Live Layla!
Alan Clark..a great keyboardist. No wonder Knopfler let him go.
How the F can anyone dislike this~??!?!?!
i am officially a mass of goosebumps!
The guy playing the tambourine in the background at 3:08 is hilarious...
nathan east baby!
Обожаю его игру на гитаре
Am I hallucinating or Alan Clark is reusing a part of this keyboard intro in the "On The Night" version of "Romeo and Juliet" intro?
forever
Undue Rita Coolidge Being Wronged! She should have a writing credit here. Great version here though.
except for the intro this is the original Layla rendition. I dont know what Elton John or Knopfler were for here
Ive always thought that Layla should end at 6mins 10 secs.
better version ever!!!!!!!!
fucking good
its time for a new top comment ummmm................THAT FENDER AS GOT ERIC THROUGH ALOT
@axetus you're right!!!!
Why is that other fella, and not Elton, playing the lead piano part at the end?
ooh
yesss ..
fucking very fucking fucking good!
they know how to do.
year? event? please :)
thats elton john at the beggining???!!!!
Not at the beggining, but he was here!
There is smoke during the whole video actually
0:10 Who is this guy?
Was this San Francisco in '88?

The intro in piano is Romeo and juliet
@mkprs Thank you!
The piano intro if clearly from romeo and juliet
03:10 The man in the background lol. He feels it
@7’44” ... I'd pay $ 10,000 to find out what he was thinking at the time!

Not the same without Duane Allman's guitar - just ask Tom Dowd ...
