Layla, you’ve got me on my knees…

Interested by the history of the song Layla, about how it was written , I started to look for some information. I found more than I was expecting, to be honest. Seems that the song was composed by Eric Clapton for Patti Boyd Harrison, the wife of George Harrison at that time and later Clapton’s wife. Damn, what a small world.

Of course, you all Clapton fans out there will tell me this was common knowledge. Well, not for me! I was not in the trivia thing…

Anyway, for those of you interested in this kind of information, here’s a long list of what Eric Clapton did in his life, from a less biographical point of view. I must admit it captivated me for a short while!
