I have to say, listening to Layla and learning to play Layla on guitar gives you a new profound respect for the song. While I always liked the song, I never looked at it as spectacular until I started playing it myself and rocking the hell out of those whole step bends.
I have no idea if this post will ever be read by anyone but ... here goes. The "Production Values" of this content surpasses almost every other "Content Provider" you'll view today (2024). Kudos. Truly conscientious and unequivocal professionalism in all respects and regard. What it took to produce and deliver this content will never truly be comprehended. Bravo! Sincerely. Thanks mate.
Awesome! There is so much intricacy to this song. I could have only been done by Clapton and Duane Allman. Their chance meeting is something that made history. Clapton said that if he had a brother, it would have been Duane. Music like this isn't created now days. Everyone relies on keyboards and perfect pitch. Bulls**t! The 60's and 70's were a wonderful time in what we now call Classic Rock. So many great pieces of music were created. If it weren't for the piano player playing a little piece of something that he and Rita Coolidge's sister had created, then used without her permission, we wouldn't have that classic end piece. From what I have researched, It was recorded at least 2-3 days after the main recording session, and Clapton and Allman just played what they felt at the time. Duane played the slide WAY past the last fret. Love his little trade mark sound. Everyone can tell when the finale is coming. You can hear the difference in the recording. I just wish that they had better recording at the time. The result would be truly wonderful. You have done a wonderful job in deconstructing the different parts of this timeless song, then presenting them in lessons. You are by far the best on You tube! Three cheers!
Fantastic presentation as always! You really seem to be the best and most versatile (online) guitar teacher. It is really unbelievable how many different songs and solos you can play and teach! I'm really awed by your talent! Leo Gibson, Davie 504 and all the other wannabe heros are strongly recommended to watch your videos! I think I learnt about 30 songs by now from you! Carry on please! And by the way: I would really appreciate, if you could teach one or two songs by the German Hardrock band "Bonfire", because I can hardly find any tabs for their songs on the internet. 👍
Carl thank you. Your videos are very helpful. One suggestion would be helpful . Would it be possible when teaching the chords to put up a diagram showing the chord. It's difficult to tell exactly what strings your fingers are on

Very nice demonstration! Apparently, Duane Allman might have played the lead under the verses using a slide in standard tuning instead of fretting the notes. It sort of sounds like he's just cramming notes in there at the 9th and 11th frets using E major under all of the chord changes.

AND he loved the comment!
First video I have ever seen of the verse being taught. You're the man Carl.
Yes that was my goggle request he's very good
Best guitar instructor on the tube!
Brilliant lesson - as always. I feel like a cheat going to G-365 every time I want to work out a song. But is the best reliable source.

I played the first half today but looking at part 2 I think I’ll just come back to it next year
How does it look so effortless? This is going to take me a decade to learn. Thanks Carl!
So how'd it go? Did you learn it? 😆
halfway there?
@@aidenemerson8545 Pretty much!
@@AndyInTheUK good to hear! best of luck to ya
Another great lesson! This is a song I have been wanting to learn for a while, thanks Carl your an amazing teacher
Yeah, If i could make a suggestion... Wet Sand. by The Red Hot Chili Peppers
These videos are the best! I love how in depth they are and this really helps people learn!
All the best for 2015 Carl. Thanks so much for all your effort in doing these awesome tutorials.
I'm Dalton from Brazil, yours is the best video lesson I've seen so far, congratulations!
Happy New Year Carl..thankyou for the great lessons throughout 2014 ..This one is a classic ..a must know !! cheers

Please teach the outro instrumental of Layla Eric Clapton
Dude im trying to find that and learn it but no one has made a vid on it
Yes pls
What do you mean? The piano part?
Thank you Carl! Again a great lesson. Very good riff whit hammer on and pull off. Wow
I'm not sure if you do slide but if you did Duane's slide solos that would be amazing.
@Adolf Hitler You're Hitler
can you make a lesson with the big solo?
+Dobos Camil Cristian agreed
Carl can you pls make a lesson for the solo right before the piano goes
How does someone learn that? Because I tried to learn the song by ear and I can't hear a single chord being played.
Carl thank you. Your videos are very helpful. One suggestion would be helpful . Would it be possible when teaching the chords to put up a diagram showing the chord. It's difficult to tell exactly what strings your fingers are on
4:50
Great work Carl, thanks
Thanks so much man for posting this video.
Ha ok now I understand why i struggle with this part it's more difficult than the main riff 😁
Nice one, thanks
Nice lesson
I'll be working on this great job kid .
EXCELLENT AS USUAL CARL

What about the outro?

Carl is THE best for intermediate-experienced players
What would the strumming be for the chords? Having a hard time picking it out
could you please do a lesson for the electric guitar solo please
Please do the solo
Anastasia by Slash please
13:43
Can you do a lesson on life's been good by joe Walsh?
Finally! :P
Can you make a guitar lesson on the outro??
Where on earth is part one? I have noticed other song parts missing as well.
I just watched it.
hey. im now practicing this.. but eric isnt doing these things for real in the live show right? i wanna learn what he's playing
+XwhiSprsX ur right. He only plays the chords throughout the lyrics. After that he solos. He also does the main riff at the beginning.
+XwhiSprsX But if your just playing on your own (no singing) Chords sound a bit bland
pls make a lesson with the solo and the outro
awesome. thanks
LAYLAA !!!
i wanna play more stuff like this. any suggestions?
Part 3?
Awesome lesson Mr Brown.
Excellent I just picked your pocket thanks mate....
So complished to me. Maybe other versión more simple.
Great stuff, could have done with some tabs to help to begin with but soon got there, thanks
Outro please :)
Cool!
Master!
