Layla Live

[61SGman]

guitarist from the dire straits?

[virageist]

I love how Mark Knopfler is just jammin' in the background... can you imagine having one of the best guitar players ever just playing back-up for your songs?

[MrPieterWittenberg]

probably the best version and solo ever of Layla

[Supreme69er]

thought this was going to be korn layla, not some fag playing the piano. delete this shitty vid

[paperchasin23]

fuck this fake ass shit. i would hate to have paid money for this piece of shit live performance

[tombaker1222]

@paperchasin23 Fake? Do you even know what you're talking about?

[jerrylawler08]

knopfler could have put abit more feeling in it.. sounds almost to me like he couldnt be arsed lol

[vik3nti0s]

He is high......

[sebafloyd1]

[AutoFirePad]

So cool with the cigarette!

Have you noticed at 8:05: he goes out of tune and laughs to the camera.

He's the BEST!

[Judoking96]

what kind of guitar is knopfler using? it looks like a shcecter that my dad has but i could be mistaken?

[sk84shiz]

Pensa Suhr

[Mrdmoloney]

the cigarette at the top of the guitar just adds to the greatness of this performance

[yunimitsu]

nice intro on the keyboard

[ThugladyLayla]

nice.

[JoshBrewin]

wow, just wow

[thenarg09]

Thats Nathan East on bass, he tours with Clapton often.

[darkarbiter7]

Yeah, I think that's East on bass in this vid, but nowadays Clapton has Willie Weeks as his bass player.

[shagger67]

could someone tell me who he has playing bass?

[TigzaMigzatesPT]

nathan east

[soroku]

it's looks like when he was still using...

[stratplayer32]

hey assholes,

try not rating the musicians and appreciate what they ALL have contributed to music. SHUT UP AND LISTEN

[Junnage]

haha I see Mark Knopfler there!

[mythbuster1991]

my god !!! what a fucking amazing solo !

[AsrudGilberto]

Ectually :) I reckon the "Live Aid '73" is a better version but whichever you like you just have to crank it up when you listen to it :)

[jbawn]

one of best versions guitar solo wise. He had a slight diff sound to his playin in late 80s, can kind of tell it was late 80s too if ya know what i mean

[fatdannyboi]

fuking awesome and inspiraional =]]

[SamborRayVaughn]

Thats the intro Dire Straits use for Romeo and Juliet on Alchemy. And lovely bass solo by Nathan East made up from the piano arrangement of Layla at the end of the song

[ekstradycja]

I wish Knopfler had played more in this song!!!
