Default Layla Unplugged

This is our version of Eric Clapton’s Layla Unplugged and I am very proud to present this one to you. I have been working with and teaching my son to play guitar this year and we have already done a few recordings but this time out we are joined by my daughter (on back-up vocals.) I honestly never saw this day coming but it has made me a happy man.

I took some liberties with the end…..I hope you don’t mind and I hope you enjoy it!

Thanks for taking a listen….Willie

That was great. Thanks again for sharing. Got me going and I had to revisit your recoding of tumbling dice once again. Happy holidays to you.

Rob,
Thank you, I appreciate that. I've always wanted to change the ending (coda) but never got around to it.
