Layla Unplugged - Eric Clapton & Mark Knopfler

[TheRealRayJ]

Clapton playing a dread?

[Teachering]

@TheRealRayJ Your comment: "Clapton playing a dread?", as in dreadnought. Yeah, I thought the same. The only other Martin I usually see him with is the concert series model.

[acceptgrace3]

Gracias, que buena calidad!

[berntey]

Look at his left hand at 2:28

:O

[GreenDay4eva1001]

@berntey -.-

[GlenKirkhamMusic]

He looks like Frankie Boyle in this video

[davidwebmastah]

Did Knopfler owe any money to Clapton? I mean, it's hard to understand Clapton's behavior during this performance. As far as I can see, Knopfler is his guest on the stage and Clapton does not help him at all. He even strums on Knopfler's solos all the time, not a wink or a smile, a hint to support Knopfler. Also, pace of the song is too fast as if Clapton was willing to finish asap. Not warmth at all. And, when they finish, he quickly vanishes from stage. Am I being paranoid? o_O

[qbenstein]

@davidwebmastah  hahaha i'm not picking any of that up, man..

[sionnyn]

@davidwebmastah It's called vamping, and Knopfler didn't add a lot to this performance, though I think usually he is great.

[jm777333]

@davidwebmastah It was a great performance 

[jm777333]

@davidwebmastah What are you watching>?

[sousbok]

A moment of eternity in the musical paradise

[MrEpiphoneplayer]

jeeezzzzusss!,i was in a trance halfway through marks solo and my little lad put the tv on behind me full blast!i needed scraping off the ceiling!!

wonderful,my eldest daughter is named after this song....... mind you she don't like her middle name...."unplugged" lol

[Robi2009]

As I adore Knopfler and Clapton, I still like the original version from "Derek and the Dominos" era better.

[kdt1599]

holy fuck, that solo was so beautiful :')

[amda1a]

秋の夜長を、この曲と一緒に過ごします。

[rorystrat]

Did anyone else get goosebumps from Mark Knopflers playing. Holy crap,one of the best solos ive ever heard.So subtle and so not over done.wow

[ASH18YEARS]

@rorystrat Absolutely!

[benwang1012]

the best....

[DistortedFaiths]

This is probably the best version of Layla, because its played by two of the best guitarists in the world. Even better than the original recording.

[equaliser100]

the two best musicians of all time on stage together you dont get better than this i love it

[novella1993]

Fucking incredible *3*

[kostis180]

Probably the dislikes are from Layla's husband and kids... :p

[dezzishezzi]

when did eric clapton turn into frankie boyle?

[MrChris4884]

2 people missed the like button!

[Thefunofquality]

[martamartula]

I's really good performance, specially with Mark. Two greatest guitarists together.

[condeguga]

love mark!!!

[numpi1989]

Love it love it love it love it. Love Clapton

[firze7]

no no NO!!! Don't TAG this masterpiece with "indie" please.

[MrChetwannabe]

i always wonder if mark knopfler even practices a song like this or has any idea of waht he is gunna play/.. i like to think he just shows up tunes his guitar then sits down and does that

[Specter18]

I really hate it when people clap along like that! Not only is it extremely annoying, but it also takes away from the music.

[KirkHammett131290]

@Specter18 YES! and in most cases those dumb people have no clue of timing

[8jjr1]

@Specter18 I disagree when the crowd starts clapping, at least from an onstage perspective, you get even more into the song that you are playing. At least that is my experience. It is true that most of the people in that crowd are old white people who clearly have no sense of rhythm or timing but still... i think the performer feeds off the energy of the crowd

[dezzishezzi]

@8jjr1 wot so cos they're old and white it means they cant appreciate the music? Get a grip pal

[8jjr1]

@dezzishezzi you clearly missed the point of my comment, at any age anyone can appreciate the music im just saying that even thought they are clappin along and it is not to the rhythm of the song the performer feeds off the crowds energy anyway.

[kaufmann94]

BUT! - Will it blend?

[jasonteten]

ERIC CLAPTON TRIVIA:

Eric wrote the song Layla about his undying love for Patti Boyd Harrison. She however was married to his good friend George Harrison at the time. Time was on Eric‘s side however as he married her 9 years later.

[PunkRockDude1]

Absolute Godness!

[jasonteten]

@PunkRockDude1 i Agree to that!

[jjlpela]

magia!!! no hay otra palabra...

[bastian0160]

dasi ist noch "ehrliche" handgemachte Musik

[Shamu4019]

Marks just jamming the say key and its sick. I dont think he rehearsed

[SoFckingAmazing]

He looks like Dr. House ; D

[joyrydaa]

This is wife stealing music. Try it. Play it to your boy's girlfriend and see if anything happens! x)

[MrWorldpress]

the one person whu disliked thi epic performance HAS WRONG BUTTON xD

[robinhobouwman]

The one person who disliked this epic perfomance is a major douche.

[BostonWidowers]

just fantastic, Mark's light electric lead is just legendary and that tone!

[cowboyfimbop]

God & Satan. Just High Authorities.

[JustinSage]

YES!

[ChRIs23696]

wow, it takes some balls to write and publish a song about your best friends wife

[gavinoneill87]

@ChRIs23696 i think he rode her too!!

[bomshelfromhell]

@ChRIs23696 Hahahaha! So true!

[MrJormzz]

@ChRIs23696 now it is his wife :)

[divinegod102]

@ChRIs23696 They're going to roll around and rock in hell or heaven one day. It just doesn't matter much to him anymore.

[numpi1989]

*siiiiiiiiiiigh*

[nainkirit]

@Readingcoops  just because it's the unplugged version of Layla, compared to the Derek and domino's version.

[Readingcoops]

Why unplugged when knopfler is playing electric?

[7RonaldoMUFC]

@Readingcoops

Because it is the unplugged version of Layla. There are two versions, and they're very different.

[hirlal]

[taylormade2go]
