Bell Bottom Blues - Eric Clapton

Eric Clapton - Bell Bottom Blues (cover)

Bell Bottom Blues was written by Eric Clapton and performed by Derek and the Dominos; recorded 1970. The track is possibly the second best known cut from the album, surpassed only by the famous title track, "Layla". This song is said to be written for Pattie Boyd after she requested him to get her a pair of bell bottom blue jeans from the USA.

As alway, my cover is simply a strummed version and the singing is very weak, but it is what it is. I learned this song some years ago, and just rediscovered it.

Great take on this song--I'd never really noticed how well the lyrics suit a country style interpretation until I heard this.....Good work!
