LAYLA Eric Clapton, old version or new version

I was going to mention that song--but only the original version, which is fantastic, and not the "Unplugged" version, which I don't really care for. BTW, Clapton recorded "Layla" under the name, "Derek and the Dominoes." Second half of the song is just pure, great guitar work.

SPIRIT IN THE SKY Norman Greenbaum

Fun to sing along with. More great guitar work.

Anything ever sung by Gordon Lightfoot

My fave: "If You Could Read My Mind" (or was it, "If I Could Read Your Mind"? Whatever. Hauntingly beautiful.)

Anything by . . . CCR

Yes! My favorite group (or at least tied with the Beatles). I love to sing along with John Fogerty. Too many great ones. One that stands out in my mind right now is, "Long As I Can See the Light."

Buffyt, you have great taste in music! :-)

Why thank you. Just listened to Eric Clapton doing the newer version of LAYLA on our drive home from Houston tonight. Our 19 year old daugher's CD!!!! She likes the same music we like and she uses the term DAMN LIBERAL... I am SO proud!!!
