@rockerface23 ummmmm eric clapton did write this song... so what if eric was the guitarist? would that prevent him from writing this song.. he is the writer of this song just as layla.. sorry pal..
Played with and opened up for Bobby a couple of times in Huntsville a few years ago. Those were long nights at catfish's house on Monte Sano. Bobby is crazy as a shithouse rat but he really brings it on piano and guitar both. He sings with GREAT soul. The girlfriend he had at the time took really good care of him.
@rockerface23 Eric was lead guitarist and singer for the band, though it's true he didn't write most songs. In face he wrote two songs of the album ( Layla etc,etc) Himself. Bobby wrote one. now the other 11 songs were group effords, most being from Eric and Bobby both or covers from blues standards. That's the homework. Layla and Bell Bottom blues are both written by Eric, he dedicated them to Patty Boyd who was George Harrison's wife then. Bobby wrote Thorn tree in the Garden.
This is from '99 or 2000. Clapton and Whitlock had not performed together in decades leading up to this.

So what if he didn't write the songs?
He is the only person on Earth to make it sound as great as it does.
