Summary:

Although Eric Clapton's career has extended far beyond even the great success of Derek and the Dominos' Layla and Other Assorted Love Songs, he continues to be shadowed by the 1970 album that has outlived many of its producers. Entrenched in the sagas of heartbreak and tragedy, the complete backstory of this album that highlighted Eric Clapton's experience with Derek and the Dominos is disclosed for the first time ever. Fans long compelled by Layla's great singles will now be captivated by the lurid details of its formation and gain new perspective on Clapton's emotional investment in the title track.
