The subtle transition from Whitlock’s piano to EC’s acoustic always gets me. So smooth. All while Duane’s slide cries in the background. Best outro ever.
The thing to realize about the 60s and 70s is all these musicians knew each other and often Jam together. They appeared on each other's albums play regrouped in different ways to make new groups they party together it was a tight community
In the days of vinyl, I spent countless hours reading the liner notes, the lyrics, who played what, who did vocals. It was a huge communal music fest for years. What a golden age (We had the BEST music).
Kudos to whomever recommended Derek and the Dominoes long version of Layla. This is one of the most famous rock piano solos ever performed. The pianist was Bobby Whitlock, who died not too long ago in Florida. Many have tried to cover it, but Whitlock had a certain rhythm no one has ever replicated.
Man, Patty Boyd must have really been something..... at least three of the greatest songs of the rock and roll era written about the same girl.... Something, Layla and Wonderful Tonight, at a minimum. She must have been something else......
The acoustic version was on MTV Unplugged, which was bands who weren't normally acoustic. The show was also live with a fairly small audience, so this was the first time anyone ever heard the acoustic version. It was recorded as an album that sold 26 million copies. There were a number of bands and singers, but you might also like Nirvana.
"If I needed someone"/"I need you"/"within you without you"/"For you blue"/ "Something"/ (G. Harrison) and "Layla"/Bell Bottom Blues/Wonderful Tonight (Clapton) All these songs were written about Patti Boyd the wife of first George Harrison and then, she left him for his best mate, Eric Clapton. This woman had more songs written about her than any other rock muse. Eric Clapton got started in The Yardbirds, then went to the Butterfield Blues band for a year before joining Cream. Also playing on a Beatles hit in 1968. Derek and the Dominos, and Bonnie and Delaney and company were 2 other bands he was in, in the early 70s before going solo by 1975. Dwayne does the slide on this song.
The piano coda was actually written by Rita Coolidge, drummer Jim Gordon's girlfriend at the time. She was in the studio next to the band. Clapton heard the piano and wanted to put the piano piece in the song, but he never got Rita's permission.
Also Blind Faith, Delaney and Bonnie and Friends, plus 3 or 4 groups that were never much. The Immediate Allstars with Jimmy Page, Eric Clapton's Powerhouse with Steve Winwood, and Dirty Mac with John Lennon and Kieth Richards. Plus a couple of garage bands before The Yardbirds and multiple recording sessions with several big name groups all before Derek and the Dominos. He was a restless and busy boy.
@robertredden4429 Sorry, my friend, the album was cut in Miami, produced by Tom Dowd. Clapton had heard Wilson Pickett's recording of "Hey Jude" and loved Duane's guitar on that. The Allman Brothers were playing in Miami, Clapton went to see them when he was cutting Layla. He and Duane got together after that show and Clapton asked him to sit in.
You are correct, no one writes music today that comes close to the music from mid-'50's through 2000. People will balk at that statement, but I stopped listening to any music on the radio starting in the 2000's....people like Foo Fighters are the exception.
Yes, I think Eric played this song for Boyd while she was still married to George (though by this time their marriage was effectively over). More history on these people - he and Pattie married, tried to have a family but were unsuccessful. Eric was addicted and mistreated her. He and Pattie split when his girlfriend became pregnant, and sadly their son is who Tears in Heaven is written about.
The end with the piano isn’t written anywhere. I learned it off the radio. It’s SO fun to play! The guitar riff starts on b flat. Thank you for the reaction
Check out the song “Crossroads” from the “Wheels of Fire” album. Plus the next song “Spoonful” on the album. If you’re into drums check out the last song on the same side named “Toad”. That was when he was with the band “Cream” and was declared a guitar god. He made the band “Derek and the Dominos” shortly after “Cream” broke up. He was a friend of George Harrison but he fell madly in love with George’s wife Patti Boyd Harrison. That’s what the song “Layla” is about. Duane Allman of the “Allman Brothers Band” played on the album also. His slide guitar can be heard throughout the album.
The amazing live version of Eric Clapton's "Old Love" should be on your shortlist. It reminds us why "Clapton is God" was graffiti in London during the 70s. That is Duane on the slide guitar.
Derek and the Dominoes was far from the "origin" of Clapton. He was part of Cream, and many other bands before he went solo. That is indeed a sweet riff. Also playing on the album was Duane Allman. You can hear them both playing, Duane doing the slide part before the piano outro. This song was a passionate love song to Patti Boyd, who was George Harrisons wife at the time. Yea, things got complicated... That piano part was added in spontaneously. They were having trouble figuring out how to end the song. One night the drummer was in the studio just noodling on the piano. Some wise soul pushed "Record" and there you have it. This is a beatufil and timeless song, and it's nice to hear it along with your fresh ears. BTW that little bird chirpy noise at the very end, Duane Allman. No one has figured out how he did it.
Duane Allman didn’t play on every song, but what he did was brilliant! The drummer Jim Gordon was a huge session player, ended up coming unscrewed starting hearing voices in his head and finally killed his mom. Tragic story!
They say that although Jim Gordon claimed co-writing credits for the outro, the piano part should really have been credited to Rita Coolidge, Gordon's girlfriend at the time.
The outro famously is featured late in the movie Goodfellas. Scorsese loved classic rock in his movie scores. If you have not seen the movie you should just to hear the outro and how it is used. Won’t spoil it just watch it.
Great reactions to Derek and the Dominos "Layla" from one of rocks greatest guitar albums. The entire album has an intensity to it and Duane Allman w his slide guitar really shines. Pick a track any track and you'll be amazed. But I'll recommend "Why Does Love Have To Be So Sad" a scorcher and try the video w lyrics cause Clapton pours his heart out again, but it's kinda muted behind the wailing guitars of Eric + Duane.
@sebsduran You recently reacted to Tedeschi Trucks Band. Derek was named after this band then around 2005-06 toured with them. London performance of this with Eric and Derek well worth the listen. Susan Tedeschi born on the same day as Layla album release. Tedeschi Trucks Band recorded entire album live at Madison Square Garden, also worth a listen.
This isn't the "origin" of Eric Clapton. Prior to this group, he played with The Yardbirds, John Mayall, Cream, Blind Faith, and Delaney and Bonnie. He also played as a guest artist on The Beatles' "White Album" (including the lead riff on While My Guitar Gently Weeps), and was on track to being asked to join the band if George had left over a creative dispute. Come to think about it, that also pertains to this song. Most references say that the song is at least in part about Pattie Boyd. She was married to George at the time. Later, she married Clapton.
Whenever I hear this song I think of dead mobsters( see the movie "Goodfellas"). On an unrelated note, I'm from Minnesota. More Prince. His version of "Motherless Child" is pretty good. Let's get some Prince.
Someone will probably correct me but when the Yardbirds split up, Jimmy Page stayed and they called themselves the New Yardbirds. Then during a jam session with members of the Who. Someone said they should form a “super group”. Who bassist John Entwistle said the “super group” (with Page, Beck, Entwistle, Keith Moon) would "go over like a lead balloon". Moon jokingly made the famous quote that they could call the band "Lead Zeppelin"…. Beck, Entwistle & Page moved on. Page formed his new band: Led Zeppelin.
Duane Allman on slide guitar was a special talent, taken far too early. Check out Duane and Wilson Pickett covering The Beatles' "Hey Jude." You won't regret it.
Great, but unusual, chord progression on this song. Verses in E (C# minor) and choruses in D minor, with a transition between the 2 that is rarely heard. And of course the guitars stand out!! Then the transition to C for the long piano outro. Thanks for the analysis.
Not at all the origin of Eric Clapton. He was the lead guitarist of The Yardbirds 1963-1965. Then joined John Mayall's Bluesbreakers for a ground breaking album as far as recording guitar sounds - so much so that Marshall sold a line of Bluesbreaker amps and stomp boxes. Then he formed the band Cream. When that dissolved he formed Blind Faith. After that was Derek and the Dominos, which was written about his unrequited love for his friend George Harrison's wife. After that he put out albums under his own name. He also played lead guitar on the Beatles "While My Guitar Gently Weeps". So if you want to check out Clapton, at least go back to his period with the Cream, which influenced a generation of guitarists. Try "Crossroads" and "White Room" from the 1968 album Wheels Of Fire, or "Sunshine of Your Love" and "Tales of Brave Ulysses" from 1967's Disraeli Gears. Derek Trucks, the great slide guitarist who played in a later version of the Allman Brothers (his uncle Butch was the drummer), was named after this album, and eventually toured with Clapton, playing the Duane Allman parts.
So my note would be that this band has no live video performances that are recorded, only audio, other than a Johnny Cash TV show where they did the one song they had that had a country vibe, and then jammed with Johnny and Carl Perkins on a song of Carl's. And that video doesn't include Duane, nor do any audio recordings. The band was made up of Carl Radle on bass, Jim Gordon (a rabbithole unto himself) on drums (who stole this coda from his then girlfriend, Rita Coolidge), Duane Allman on slide guitar on all but two of the tracks, and the keyboardist/singer Bobby Whitlock (who has his own channel on TH-cam). Bobby is a great singer and wrote/co-wrote more of the album than Clapton. His background vocals here are as much of a secret weapon as Duane's slide guitar work. Next tracks I would listen to are Bell Bottom Blues and Why Does Love Got To Be So Sad, though every track on the album is awesome. Also, their live album has a few songs not on the original. I really wish Eric and Bobby had done more together.
Did your brothers ever tell you about the tragedy that inspired Tears In Heaven? That’s also a great one to hear unplugged version pretty emotional. Also Wonderful Tonight maybe a bit cheesier?
Check out any of the live songs from One More Car, One More Rider, including the late great Billy Preston on organ. One of his signature songs: "Have You Ever Loved A Woman" th-cam.com/video/RBSaCAxJMdI/w-d-xo.html
Sebs, send me your email address. I used to DJ back in the late 70's, early 80’s for a rock super lounge in Florida. Also did work with name acts, including the Allman Brothers. I could enlighten you to some great classic rock bands from the 70's and early 80'.s
Duanes slide outro is just a work of art. RIP he died so young.
He came up with the opening riff too.
Yep, it's all one song, 7 minutes, and back in the day, we could hear it on the radio all the way through, uncut, everytime. Life was good.
I think people had longer attention spans back then. Many of us listened to complete albums instead of songs.
Life Sure Was!
And the best music. Hands down!
Clapton was in the Yardbirds, John Mayalls Blues Breakers, Cream, Blind Faith and Delaney and Bonnie all before Derek and the Dominoes
Written about his future wife, he was pinning for Pattie Boyd who was married to George Harrison at the time.
Duane Allman on the slide guitar…amazing
The subtle transition from Whitlock’s piano to EC’s acoustic always gets me. So smooth. All while Duane’s slide cries in the background. Best outro ever.
The slide guitar was played by Duane Allman, my favorite guitarist of all time.
His slide work on Mountain Jam is the first time I got tears in my eyes listening to a guitarist.
You're not knowing about Derek and the Dominos makes me feel old...
On that same album Bell. bottom blues blues
YES!!!!!! Absolutely!!
The entire album is incredible.
"Bell Bottom Blues" ❤ 🎧
Eric was in The Yardbirds, John Mayalls Blues Breakers and Cream before Derek and the Dominos starting in 1963.
The thing to realize about the 60s and 70s is all these musicians knew each other and often Jam together. They appeared on each other's albums play regrouped in different ways to make new groups they party together it was a tight community
In the days of vinyl, I spent countless hours reading the liner notes, the lyrics, who played what, who did vocals. It was a huge communal music fest for years. What a golden age (We had the BEST music).
Kudos to whomever recommended Derek and the Dominoes long version of Layla. This is one of the most famous rock piano solos ever performed. The pianist was Bobby Whitlock, who died not too long ago in Florida. Many have tried to cover it, but Whitlock had a certain rhythm no one has ever replicated.
You nailed it…never replicated!
Man, Patty Boyd must have really been something..... at least three of the greatest songs of the rock and roll era written about the same girl.... Something, Layla and Wonderful Tonight, at a minimum.
She must have been something else......
The acoustic version was on MTV Unplugged, which was bands who weren't normally acoustic. The show was also live with a fairly small audience, so this was the first time anyone ever heard the acoustic version. It was recorded as an album that sold 26 million copies.
There were a number of bands and singers, but you might also like Nirvana.
Eric Clapton is Awesome!!!!! So many good songs!
For comparison, now do Layla from Clapton's Unplugged album.
It's fine, but IMO there's nothing like the original especially when the piano takes over and we go to a whole new place.
Agreed.
No Duane Allman on that version.
"If I needed someone"/"I need you"/"within you without you"/"For you blue"/ "Something"/ (G. Harrison) and "Layla"/Bell Bottom Blues/Wonderful Tonight (Clapton) All these songs were written about Patti Boyd the wife of first George Harrison and then, she left him for his best mate, Eric Clapton.

Dwayne does the slide on this song.
I only listed the songs I could remember off the top of my head. I am missing a few.
Bought this LP when it first came out, still have it, listen to it often.
A buddy back then called it "going to heaven music."
I still get goosebumps.
The piano coda was actually written by Rita Coolidge, drummer Jim Gordon's girlfriend at the time. She was in the studio next to the band. Clapton heard the piano and wanted to put the piano piece in the song, but he never got Rita's permission.
The actual origin of Clapton started out with The Yardbirds, John Mayall, the god father of British blues then Cream all before Derek and the Dominos.
Thanks, now I don't have to tell him.
Also Blind Faith, Delaney and Bonnie and Friends, plus 3 or 4 groups that were never much. The Immediate Allstars with Jimmy Page, Eric Clapton's Powerhouse with Steve Winwood, and Dirty Mac with John Lennon and Kieth Richards. Plus a couple of garage bands before The Yardbirds and multiple recording sessions with several big name groups all before Derek and the Dominos. He was a restless and busy boy.
the story of the CODA and all the players involved is, to say the least, fascinating
Stolen from Rita Coolidge is the story I heard. Evidently Gordon was not a nice guy.
NO, this is NOT the origin of Clapton. That would be John Mayall's Blues Breakers. Here he was merely a member of the band. It was not his group.
That slide is Duane Allman.
Duane Allman heard Eric Clapton was in Mussel Sholes cutting the album went there to see Eric Clapton and wound up playing on the album
@robertredden4429 Sorry, my friend, the album was cut in Miami, produced by Tom Dowd. Clapton had heard Wilson Pickett's recording of "Hey Jude" and loved Duane's guitar on that.
The Allman Brothers were playing in Miami, Clapton went to see them when he was cutting Layla. He and Duane got together after that show and Clapton asked him to sit in.
I love seeing you learn about the history of musicians and their music. The 70's had some of THE best music EVER.
Excellent song. He has an acoustic version of this song that is great, too.
And this complicated sound was made by only five guys. No autotune, very few studio effects (they had fuzz tone and echo and that was about all).
🇨🇦 Welcome to our World ! 🇨🇦
You are correct, no one writes music today that comes close to the music from mid-'50's through 2000. People will balk at that statement, but I stopped listening to any music on the radio starting in the 2000's....people like Foo Fighters are the exception.
Just a great tune, you gotta check out more of his stuff, you won’t be disappointed. Thanks for playing.
Layla was actually George Harrison’s wife, Pattie Boyd. After Harrison and Boyd divorced, Clapton and Boyd eventually married.
Yes, I think Eric played this song for Boyd while she was still married to George (though by this time their marriage was effectively over). More history on these people - he and Pattie married, tried to have a family but were unsuccessful. Eric was addicted and mistreated her. He and Pattie split when his girlfriend became pregnant, and sadly their son is who Tears in Heaven is written about.
The outro was used in Goodfellas for the scene were Jimmy had wacked his crew and their bodies were turning up everywhere
What a great scene. Fit perfectly
Originally conceived as more of a ballad. Duane Allman came up with the intro. Keyboard player Bobby Whitlock wrote the outro.
Actually I think that was drummer Jim Gordon who wrote that piano outro.
@ you’re right! I saw a documentary and Whitlock told the story but it was Gordon who composed it. Thanks! ✌️
I’m not a HUGE Clapton fan but I DO love this song. The piano break is so sweet! But it’s the biggest left turn in rock history!!
Great reaction.
I've been listening to Clapton since the days of John Mayall, have most of his albums, his collaborations are legendary.
The opening riff was made by Duane...
The end with the piano isn’t written anywhere. I learned it off the radio. It’s SO fun to play! The guitar riff starts on b flat. Thank you for the reaction
This was one of my favorites growing up. Thanks for sharing.
Hard to hear this without thinking of Goodfellas nowadays :)
An acoustic version he did of this was on the MTV Unplugged concert he did. It’s the same song but such a totally different feel to it.
Keep on growing from the same album rocks.
Check out the song “Crossroads” from the “Wheels of Fire” album. Plus the next song “Spoonful” on the album. If you’re into drums check out the last song on the same side named “Toad”. That was when he was with the band “Cream” and was declared a guitar god.
He made the band “Derek and the Dominos” shortly after “Cream” broke up. He was a friend of George Harrison but he fell madly in love with George’s wife Patti Boyd Harrison. That’s what the song “Layla” is about. Duane Allman of the “Allman Brothers Band” played on the album also. His slide guitar can be heard throughout the album.
"This is so unusual!" Ain't it though?
The piano riff is at the end of the movie Goodfellows
The amazing live version of Eric Clapton's "Old Love" should be on your shortlist. It reminds us why "Clapton is God" was graffiti in London during the 70s.
That is Duane on the slide guitar.
This is the most epic song intro in history to me, and the outro as well. 👍

Jokes apart, love is love. Art is art!

snake lake blues is also a great cut, from that album
In the conversation for best guitar riff in rock n roll history.
just good jam

At 3:15 "This song doesn't go where I think it should." Wait for it -- the song takes a big turn at 5:20 LOL
Dwayne almond was one of the very best slide guitar. Players/Plano guitar players until he hurt his hand. Before he got killed in seventy one
Check out the story of drummer, piano player and co-writer. Jim Gordon
Duane Allman on slide guitar was a special talent, taken far too early. Check out Duane and Wilson Pickett covering The Beatles' "Hey Jude." You won't regret it.
