And George was best friends with this far-to middlin’ blues guitarist named Eric Clapton.If you ever listen to either Eric’s or George’s work from the 70’s there was a lot of cross-pollination in their work. They both made the other better musicians..

"Layla" was about Clapton stealing George's wife, Patti Boyd, a dancer on "AHDN" movie. A bit odd that George asked Clapton to play lead on "While My Guitar gently Weeps"
