Rolling Stone 500 Greatest Albums of All Time - Rated 226/500!
Layla and Other Assorted Love Songs achieved gold-album status within months of its release in late 1970 and was entered into the Grammy Hall of Fame in 2000.
Layla And Other Assorted Love Songs, features the likes of Bobby Whitlock, the vastly under-rated Jim Gordon and Carl Radle, all of whom Clapton had already road-tested on his first solo album. Add to the mix his American guitar playing nemesis Duane Allman and we have all the ingredients for another history defining album of pure rock n roll. Because thats what "Layla And Other Assorted Love Songs" is. Aside from anything, the album also contains the greatest rock song of all time with the greatest display of intertwining guitar playing ever heard. We are of course talking about "Layla" and its here on double vinyl for your listening pleasure!
"The panoramic anguish of Eric Clapton's singing and guitar-playing here in songs such as "Why Does Love Got to Be So Sad" and the searing title track was the product of very private hurt: his romantic yearning for the then-wife of his best friend, George Harrison. "Layla" is also a two-LP feast of dueling guitars, as Clapton soared in tandem with session guest and slide virtuoso Duane Allman. They had not met prior to the sessions, but their interplay in "Key to The Highway" and "Have You Ever Loved a Woman" is both harmonious and fiercely competitive electric, brotherly love." - www.rollingstone.com
