The song opens great then skip ahead to approx 4 min mark where it is just playing the instruments. Then skip to 6:45 for the finish.

Clapton has extra joints in his fingers.

My favorite version of “Layla”...and with Steve Gadd on drums.

I was a huge Clapton in high school/college and saw him live in the early 90s. Layla was my favorite song over that stretch. But this is the stuff that got him labeled "God" in 1966. The tone, the aggressive attack, the phrasing.... so good.
