The original band that recorded Layla are either dead (Allman, Radle) or in prison for life (Gordon, the drummer who also did the piano bit). Only Clapton and WHitlock (organ) are all that remains of Derek and the Dominos.

"Gordon, the drummer who also did the piano bit"

A little something Gordon stole from his ex-girlfriend Rita Coolidge.

We know Gordon was (is) mentally ill, but apparently he's a jerk too. (Beat his girlfriend up and stole her material).

Layla remains my all time number one favorite song. Based on the piano ending.
