  • Does not matter if you love one over the other; rather it is just pure JOY to see two legends play together! Thank you for posting......ROCK ON!

  • this is by far my favorite version of layla ever.... amazing

  • those guys are gonna be dead some time...

  • @henrithefreak47 Yup, and depending on your age, it's a lot quicker or sooner than you want or expect! (May I lump myself/ourselves in the same boat).

  • Solo is just...

  • 3:30 this bending just touched my heart at the deepest point... the whole solo does

  • i noticed they edited out the enormous feedback from mark's guitair haha :P at about 0:38

  • I've yet to hear a solo better than this one for acoustic Layla. Thank you, Mr. Knopfler!

  • geil, altes lied. lange nichtmehr gehört^^

  • Who the Hell disliked this? People with no soul and no emotion, obviously...

  • What those two men can do with a Guitar... Amazing nothing less

  • Grit riff

  • ehm You will have a fun time with me

  • 3:03 <3333

    

  • 84 people were rejected by Layla

  • Thats the perfect sound on mark's guitar...its beautiful...

  • Perfect harmony.

  • hehe Share ur dreams and thoughts with me

  • Knopfler e Clapton sono magnifici,vederli invecchiare e' un peccato perche' dopo di loro c'e' il vuoto assoluto,lunga vita ai DEI del suono.

  • see...he is no shredding, thats because the guy knows how to play the goddamn instrument

  • One day mankind will look back and say .. 'In those day the gods walked the earth'

  • @tmulledy amen

  • @tmulledy get real

  • @tmulledy But David Gilmour and Hendrix aren't on stage:S...I'll give it to Knopfler, absolutely beautiful guitar player, Clapton's a fucking idiot.

  • @tmulledy We say that now

  • @tmulledy fortunately ther are people that already do that... I am one of them

  • Knopfler and Clapton together. this folks is the ultimate!!! love it, enjoy it, and celebrate it!

  • The bending at 3:30 is really really impressive and emotional. What a masterpiece.

  • I'm a pure Clapton fan, but I think this is the best solo I've heard for Layla Unplugged.

  • So happy I found out about this video..

    One of my favorite (if not the best): Mark Knopfler + One of my favorite songs: Layla = this.

  • Awesome, both of them together. Anyone an idea, when & where the concert was?

  • @webdepp I believe it was at the Royal Albert Hall in London.

  • @calkeithgray Thx, but doesn't really help, since RAH is Eric's "Homeplayground" - pretty much yearly (or even more often) visited - and I'm looking for a Year/Location info about this specifc recording.

  • @webdepp Music for Montserrat is the title of concert,you can download it from somewhere.Is one of my favorite concerts!

  • So cool! I love this version of Layla

  • ha Im your ANYTHINGGIRL. i am new, ask me i give you what you want

  • not as easy as it looks

  • @connorfilmpro They make it look super easy, because they are both awesome

  • two of the world most aclaimed and finest guitarists, absolute magic

  • DR. HOUSE + GORDON FREEMAN (Half Life) + GUITAR = ERIC CLAPTON

  • I can't help but worry that as many as 84 out of 2976083 people dislike this. How is that possible?

  • check solo cover here youtube.com/watch?v=RxWHltdvS4­E

  • doesn't get much epic than this.

  • been waiting for wilson and cuddy the entire video..

  • I'm not sure I agree....his D-28 is supposed to be a 1939 and that doesn't look like a 1939. Is it possible it's his D-42?

  • @naturopatia There should be more levels between Guitar God and Mark Knopfler. I'm around Justin Bieber/Beginner. Beginner is when I'm having a good day.

  • So intense solo

  • this is like the best dream-come-true everrrr...eric clapton side-by-side mark knopfler playing one of the best songs ever made, layla!

  • where is chuck norris?

  • @glock038 he thought he should stay out of this one, because the building would collapse due to all of their awesomeness combined

  • @glock038 where chuck norris is? hes sitting right there on the stage with his acoutstic guitar, taking the shape of eric clapton.. duh?

  • What type of guitar is Clapton using??

  • @Sparkzoid17 Martin of course. He have a signature model that cost about 3000$...

  • @Sparkzoid17 that model is a late 40's Martin D-28, but he has several signiature models by Martin as well, listen to that aged rosewood and spruce sound!!!

  • Where can I get this beauty on CD?

  • I'm masturbating with 4 hands!!!

  • ...i love MARK playing his old LES PAUL, does anyone know the year of this LES PAUL ('59?) ? LES from berlin/germany

  • @lesleypaul59 I think i have read somewhere its not a 59 but a '58 les paul

  • the two legends playing havoc on the stage ! clapton on the acquostic and singing this faboulous song accompanied by mark knop on the les paul . . . its just amazing ! they both have made history !

  • the tone mark gets out of that gibson is sweet as

  • Knopfler kills it man ! what a solo !

    

  • un duo denfer encor encor

  • thumbs up if you think Eric should change hes name to epic clapton XD

  • Knopfler's solo getting the emotion right through.  Goosebumps.

  • @VirtuosityNow

    hear hear !!!

  • @VirtuosityNow As always for Mark. Seen him live - awesome!

  • @jet02271 I think Mark is about on a level, having seen them both live

  • Klasse Jochen W.  Flensburg

  • Mark knopfler et Eric clapton ! aiie ça donne dure ( pour tout les guitaristes) ;)

  • Is there anyone else better!!!? naaahhhhhh...

  • @casmot23 BB King is just ahead of these two...

  • @SuperPrivate2011 but only just

  • mark is the best

  • Quando questi artisti non ci saranno piu' resteremo soli in questo mondo vigliacco,nessuno mai riuscira' a regalarci queste emozioni.

  • @frusciantenc i don't have a vagina, but i'm wet like hell :D

  • Les MEILLEURS...que dire de plus. Quel que soit le morceau, c'est toujours la même magie. J'aimerai bien savoir ce que donnerai le trio: Clapton, Knopfler, Santana...Qui sait, on peut toujours rêver...........

  • They are perfect together >>Happy Birthday Mark<< : - )

  • still not convinced, i think i still prefer swagga jagger (sarcastic)

  • Geez that was an easy gig for MK

  • the real deal.

    real live working men laying it down.

  • That , my dear boys and girls, is real music performed by real artists who master their real instruments to perfection! Not some cheap designed product from slick producers made in the studio for selling to the ignorant young people of this world. People will still be listening to Mark Knopfler and Eric Clapton long after they are gone. Will you be listening in 20 year to the present crap?

  • This is.. just amazing.

  • when was this

  • only mark can play like that ...is just so magical !

  • mark knopfler and erick clapton singing toughether is great , refresh my soul this song

  • i want to like this thousand times...

  • Mark Knopfler, so subtle, gentle and beautiful. that how guitar should be played!

  • @wel2003 Totally. He's a picker...sensitive and thoughtul in all things fretboard. 

  • Comment removed

  • Just one word:WONDERFUL

  • wow I really love the dire straits sound of his guitar along with clapton's song!

  • wow 2 of my hereos!!

  • @GigaBitesFly ...Clapton -> Knopfler (anche se Clapton è veramente un grande)

  • @MrGabba95 This isn't a debate out who is better (that's always subject to opinion). This is just a great partnership by two people that can play better than just about all of us. Just applaud the music. Neither of these two will gain any ego or prize by your comment. Just still back drink a beer and enjoy the music.

  • @Damzelbum sono d' accordo con te ma ti ricordo che sei stato tu a d elevare clapton sopra tutti.... e comunque ripeto clapton è un grande e su questo non si discute...

  • @Damzelbum sono d' accordo con te ma ti ricordo che sei stato tu a d elevare clapton sopra tutti.... e comunque ripeto clapton è un grande e su questo non si discute

  • @Damzelbum Best comment I've seen on Youtube.

  • The best.

  • wowowowowowowow:O

  • Dos monstruos como tocan las guitarras por favor , maestrosssssssssssssss

  • Im gonna go out on a limb here and say the greatest guitar duo ever.

  • Mark Knopfler has the coolest guitar ever

  • @pb999999999 He may play with the ugliest guitar ever, he would make it looks cool :)

  • two ov the greastest legends playin awsome tune

  • Guitar in Eric´s Hands = God´s Hands

  • That solo is simply stunning. 

  • Mark is a perfect. let it be

  • 81 people slept with Justin Bieber last night...

  • One of the best song ever made. No need technology, 2 guys and 2 guitars and here we go

  • Encontro de magos!

  • Mark's got much more soul and feelings in his playing than clapton

  • @immatypewholike2lite

    I dont think so, becasue claptons is playing rythm guitar in this video and this on an acousitc guitar, so he cant play such solos, but he is very well supporting Knopfler in his playing.

  • @LeGullasch I'm awared of that, my opinion is not just based on this video, clapton plays blues, and his blues ain't got the soul like albert kings,jimi hendrix, stevie ray vaughans blues. Thats just a fact. :)

  • @immatypewholike2lite

    You think so, really....

    The only fact is, that blues is a FEELING.

    And you can´t assess feelings...

    I think, that clapton can express his feelings very well with musik...

  • @immatypewholike2lite

    at first what LeGullasch wrote is right, secondly you normaly see clapton sing or ripping of a great solo but you wont see him do that at the same time. it's kinda hard to improvsie so you stay focused on that and don't sing along. as a guitarplayer i would say that even the rhytm part isn't that simple and mr clapton played it wonderful.

  • @DangerMoped i play guitar too, and my opinion is not just based on this video, and speaking of playing and singing, Mark is one of the finest

  • I feel like I should pay every time I watch this video...

  • I try to give you the consolation when your old man had let you down,like a fool I fell in love with you layla....:)just awesome words...!!!

  • Riff In

  • i love those harmonics Knopfler throws in his solo

  • Comment removed

  • Weltklasse!!!

  • clapping from the audience should be outlawed. 

  • FUUUU! Is there any tool so i could turn off clapton's part to hear Knopfler's solo???

  • was listening to this with my 13 year old brother .. in the middle of knopflers solo we said: ok lets go watch two and a half men now! guess whos punished for punching his brother in the face?
