Layla And Other Assorted Love Songs

The background music at a dive bar that doesn't care what the music is. It's fine. Just not my favorite.

so mediocre, expected sth a lot better, even the acoustic version of layla (one that i have known first before) is much better than one on the album

Very long. And not enough variety to justify the length. Probably won’t listen to cover to cover again.

Layla obviously a banger but the rest is super boring and Clapton’s a cunt

Didn’t get through it. Wasn’t feeling it.

Maybe good for some background music to chill to

The first two songs are unlistenable. I tried, but I ended up skipping them, which I seldom do. When I started this project, I knew there would be albums I did not like, but I resolved to listen to them all, to open myself up to new things - except country. Because fuck country. If I’m being completely fair, it gets better after the first two songs. It’s still bog standard 60s blues-tinged rock. Which is fine sometimes, but the country stuff is unforgivable.

i have nothing nice to say about eric clapton. rip ray liotta.

Not my cup of tea...

Didn’t really grab me.

2.5 fine for what it is but a bit boring.

here’s how little i know of eric clapton; my initial thought was “oh that’s fun, they named an album after eric clapton’s iconic song and covered it.” 😆 but now that i’ve listened to it, i did not enjoy it. i didn’t know the 4 minute long outro to layla existed and it completely threw me off and i just cannot make friends with it, i guess i’ve only heard a cover. had it been a separate instrumental track instead, then sure. it’d be good i guess. but i just wanted to hear layla. nonetheless, the fact that layla exists on the album makes it a 2 and not a 1. the last song on the album that was more acoustic and not endless shredding was quite lovely.

This is #day145 of my #1001albumsyoumusthearbeforeyoudie challenge, and... it's the final day of 2024, which turned into a catch-up on January 1st, 2025, as I forgot to listen to the album yesterday. When I was halfway through it, I learned about Eric’s love of russia, its music, and, as he says, "the mythical side of russian history". This discovery, in light of russia’s ongoing war against Ukraine and the countless atrocities committed by russian terrorists, made me furious. You must have drunk your brains away, Eric. This album gets a 2 out of 5, only because of "Layla," the dog at my wife's parents' house, whom I named after the eponymous song. Looking forward to #day146.

Little too guitar solo-y for me and otherwise just not grabbing me.

Tittelen passer bra her - dette er Layla, samt diverse uoriginale blueslåter Clapton har skrapt sammen. Utrolig nok er Layla fortsatt kul etter over en time (!) med repeterende klagerock.

I tried to come to this with an open mind- I never cared for the song Layla, so was hoping there would be some hidden gems on here. It sounded like a lot of the same, over and over again-white blues with some noodley jam band bits thrown in. Technically not terrible, didn’t shut it off, but nor would I choose to revisit this. I guess I don’t like any non-Cream Eric Clapton. Unnecessary Little Wing cover was also wanky.

I find this album tired. I know the hits, but the rest sounds cheesy like when a guy who have never played the blues wants to show he can play the blues. Maybe it’s the era? The sound choices? Maybe I just don’t like Clapton.

Second groupe avec E. Clapton (le premier étant Cream). Pas très intéressant, même si quelques parties de guitare se laissent écouter. Et surtout beaucoup trop long ! Je ne l'écouterais pas une seconde fois. =>2/5

Was not conviced, even a bit anoying to listen too.

This very much felt like the same song over and over. I think perhaps the only blues I like are blues christmas songs played over a film scene with drunk santa's hanging out in bars.

Listened to this one whilst working, and I reckon 3 tracks in I think I'd actually stopped "listening" to it, it just didn't hold my attention.....until of course Layla appeared. Layla deeply buried amongst the rest of it, the change in tempo of this song with the piano really does last it's taste in time and I had to re-visit it along with other versions of the song over the weekend to really appreciate it- truly a classic piece of music. Album overall though lets the song down and it'll be unlikely I'd hear it all again. (sorry, would have been a 1 if it wasn't for Layla

It's in the description No need for much diction Layla is a great song but the album is too long Will not listen more let's see what today has in store

ok this has nothing to do with the music itself but i started thinking about how unfair it is that god took sterling morrison from this earth so young when it should have been eric clapton instead so then i got really mad at eric clapton for still being alive. which made me not want to enjoy this album. which is not really eric clapton’s fault i guess. but still…god if you’re listening we are ready and willing to trade clapton for sterling. i LOOOOVED the guitar on “anyday.” and “little wing” also jumped out at me but clapton didn’t even write the goddamn thing. overall this is just atrociously long—the self-indulgent lyrics combined with the guitar noodling and the album’s length really create a sense of tedium. “layla” is a good ass song though i will give him that. except for the extended middle part…again, this guy does NOT know how to self-edit.

Solid but nothing special

Doesn't sound bad, but the songs are long and repetitive.

The album mostly features the kind of boring blues rock I've associated with Eric Clapton for most of my life. The title track, "Layla" suffers from having a better, and more memorable, guitar line than any other part of the song. It was disproportionate how jazzed I got about the guitar and how much I didn't care when the vocals came it. "Why Does Love Got To Be So Sad" is a highlight. Having an Allman brother really helps a little, but not a enough.

It’s OK I suppose. Takes me back to the rhythm & blues club I used to visit in Watford in my teenage years.

One for the guitar heads

Was it really worth going through a double album of discomfort, as Eric Clapton plays through the blues despite his racism just to get to Layla. Maybe, I mean it’s the one song in the title of the album. Honestly, it’s the other song to give a shit about. The rest range from ok to forgettable. To be blunt, I’m getting sick of getting double albums. Especially those made by terrible people. Favorite track: Layla Other hits that are not Layla: Bell Bottom Blues, I Looked Away, Thorn Tree in the Garden

Eric Clapton you will start coughing in 7 days

Aside from "Layla" and some nice guitar bits scattered through, I found this to be a generic and mostly unmemorable classic rock album. In one ear, out the other. It also suffers from being way too long. "Layla" is a great track but not quite top tier.

It was allright, as good as an Eric Clapton album can be. Layla is a fantastic riff and song though I think if I had to sum up this album and Claptons career I would say generic classic rock Favourite song: Layla Least favourite: every song is a little meh Album artwork: I love the cover

Een blues/rock album met ontzettend lange gitaarsolos en veel middelmatig werk, allemaal zodat je uiteindelijk Layla kan horen en kan zeggen "Ja dat was inderdaad verreweg het beste nummer van het album, dat had me zo ruim een uur gescheeld als ik alleen dat nummer had geluisterd want dit had ik best wel aan kunnen zien komen omdat het fucking album zelfs Layla en andere nummers heet" Oh en ik ga het toch zeggen; ik vind de MTV Unplugged versie van Layla beter dan het origineel. FAVO: Keep on growing, Layla(ja echt)

Layla is a great track, but it doesn't fit the rest of the album which is bog standard blues with some top notch guitar playing by a known knob.

dry

Better than his solo album but not that much better. I don’t think Clapton being on the list at all is necessary, and if he needs to be, Disraeli Gears should be the one chosen, since it’s at least a decent album. But yeah this is just a nothing album to me

meh. its country, its blues, its easy 70s rock and roll. I listened to 1.5x through and didn't feel like I need to listen to again. Probably ever. Nothing to bring me in

Layla And Other Assorted Love Songs (that don't deserve a mention and aren't even half as good). It's way too long. One great track, a few good tracks, and then a whole lot of boring or downright bad tracks. Little Wing was horrendous. Sorry boomers. Also, as always, I must stress: fuck Eric Clapton.

Fav songs so far: Why does love got to be so sad? - features some more unusual rhythms from this era of classic rock. Sounds a bit more like the Doors with some extra guitar solos thrown in. Good combo. I’m not really a fan of classic rock so this album hasn’t really been my cup of tea but this song is great! Like previously mentioned, rock from the 70s isn’t really my cup of tea.

I'm only five albums in, but 4/5 have been from the early seventies, and 2/5 have featured members of Cream. this is some freaky RNG! from my very cursory research, it seems like Derek and the Dominos was created out of a desire for Eric Clapton to just play some music, maaan, regardless of how it would be received by the audience he'd built up with Cream and Blind Faith. given that pure intent, and the fact that I'm by no means a Clapton fan—apart from his history of virulent racism and conspiracy-mongering, I think he's merely a good guitarist rather than a great one—I approached this with as open a mind as I could muster. I've certainly enjoyed music by people I find just as repugnant as him (if not more), so I really tried not to let my personal perception of Clapton have an effect on my stance regarding this album. that being said, I am bored to tears by this blues rock sound! every third laundromat, grocery store and radio station in my area serves an endless rotation of songs in this vein, and I am so deeply NOT the target audience for it! I don't really have an issue with straight-up blues guitar playing, but if you're going to infuse a rock element into it, I'm going to need a lot more in the songwriting department! Clapton's middling guitar antics and utterly vacant vocal presence can only take me so far! I can appreciate that this is probably the best batch of guitar performances I've heard from Clapton across an entire album, but when Duane Allman smokes him just about every time they trade solo blows, it's kind of a moot point. Bobby Whitlock's backing vocals really get under my skin, which is a shame since I like his keys. 77 minutes??? I'd maybe return to three tracks here. this truly is "Layla" and some other songs. most of the rest of the covers are utterly banal, and the originals? imagine being down this bad for a happily married woman! I'd maybe be willing to look past that, the ugly core of this album, if the music moved me, but on the whole, it very much did not. I'm gonna go watch some B.B. King clips on YouTube. decent 4/10.

Layla brought this up from 1 star

Bell bottom blues and Layla are great, but the rest is pretty tough to get through

I just don't really care for music like this. Layla definitely feels like the standout track; the others felt a bit meandering and self-indulgent.

If I separate the man from the music, the album is ok. A little self-indulgent at times. Layla is the obvious standout. Eric Clapton is kind of a piece of shit.

Was relieved to get it finished. Songs seemed to go on forever. Enjoyed Layla though.

clapton sökkar. þetta er allt of langt.

Not a fan of Eric Clapton

Good, but loses it's luster by being too long.

Definitely felt that the front half of the album is better than the back half. Front half sounds more structured, like the band took more care writing those songs. The back half sounds like a solo-fest, and not in a really good way. It's not ground-breaking music by any means, there's some parts and songs that are skippable. Layla still bangs though and is just an iconic riff. Overall, 2/5

Layla ist bekannt. Der Rest eher nicht so.

Layla aside it’s pretty disappointing

Layla is completely detached from the rest of the album. Everything else is mediocre at best.

Well I liked Layla!

Faded to the background.

Way too long for bang average dad rock. The first half of Layla is the only standout and even that song drags on too long.

It’s whatever, 70s rock, 2 or 3 stars.

Not so tiny secret - Duane Allman plays the best guitar on this album. Racist shithead Eric Clapton is just riding Duane’s coattails. The drummer was nuts, but plays a nice piano. EC is still racist. And Duane Allman gets forgotten for being the true hero of Layla. Two stars for Duane only - if this was just EC I’d select “did not listen”

Long, aimless solos. Some nice patches but its not for me.

It's another situation where the only thing worth attention is the biggest stand-out track from this one-hit-wonder. Everything else is a collective shrug. And the title of this album is almost aware of that fact, because the title is literally just saying "Hey, remember that one song from us that's pretty good? It's here on this album! What? Oh yeah, there's some other stuff too... but that's just the "other", you can ignore that, because let's be honest - you're really just here for Layla" And so how this entire album is apparently a "must listen" is again, lost to me with the logic of this list. If this list was the "1,000 Singles You Must Hear Before You Die", it'd be insanely more accurate to what's actually here.

Not my taste

eh, its clapton.... fun fact my neighbor used to be his drug dealer in florida

I was really struggling to see why this album was on this list, then I found out it was an Eric Clapton project and it all made sense. This album is too long, yet still manages to go nowhere. Go and listen to Cream if you want to hear a racist make actual good music.

It's fine, I guess. The songs are generally too long, though, and they're just kind of... so-so.

When I first saw the name of the album and band, I was expecting some 50's blues album. This is super polished and lacks rawness of the genre. It's also long with guitars verging on the wanky side

Clapton was decent with the Yardbirds and Cream, a complete mentalist by this point and on his way to serious MOR bollockery by the 80s. Always lauded by blokes who like their cars just a little bit too much. Even Layla is a bit pants compared to other epic 70s guitar monsters

wasn't bad but alot of the songs blended in together none really stood out. Also, the album was too long

Layla is quite good and the rest was sort of fine. Certainly dragged on too much and felt a little self serving at times

walk out the door you see someone that you know and they ask you how you are and you just have to say that youre fine when youre not really fine but you just cant get into it because they would never understand

I predict sometime in the future there will be a fairly dramatic revision by critics of how many "classic" albums were released in 60s and 70s when rock was in its infancy. People will come to realize that it just happened to be released at the time and is not that good. This album will be first in the firing squad. Boring blues rock numbers with one or two good songs. 2.5*

To extensively paraphrase The Dismemberment Plan's song "Ice of Boston": Turned on the car at 9am, with the radio on, This Derek & the Dominos album on about how Eric Clapton would rather form a fake band in order to write love songs about Patti Boyd than be normal about it and at least not directly involve George Harrison in that whole mess, And I sat there, head spinning, staring at a stop light, And I thought to myself "Oh, Clapton, dude, I hate you but, oh! Get a life!"

I was over this before it even got to Layla. It's fine for the most part. I can see why it would have been amazing in its time thanks to this exercise.

This is the overdone 70s rock that I'm sick of. I also dislike Eric Clapton. I'm also not in a great mood LOL. I wanted this to end.

The two half decent songs on this do not make up for the murder of Little Wing.

Honestly, less dreadful than expected. I am not a fan of Eric Clapton as a person or as a musician, and this does not change that fact, but the first few tracks are solid bluesy 70s rock, and the final two tracks show off the dichotomy of the record beautifully. It is everything in-between that makes me roll my eyes and tune out. It's just half-cooked white guy blues with nothing to stand out, and, man, does every song feel like it goes on forever. The whole album is too long, quite frankly, and it really hurts the album. Just the first three songs and the final two combined would be longer than some blues rock albums, and would make this an all-time, short album great. Instead, the album has to reek of filler treatment, and it is incredibly dull. Not to mention it feels difficult to have any sympathy for the singer whenever he mopes on a song, so that just makes it more difficult to watch. It's fine, I get why people like it, especially classic rock enthusiasts, but this album just feels like an old guy's garage secluded Summer vacation, and that sounds like MY personal Hell.

I don't get the Clapton love. Fairly dull blues rock that goes on way too long. Doesn't help that he's an antivax weirdo and likely a closeted racist.

Obviously the song Layla is iconic. Otherwise this is a slog.

Albumi #3, 30.07.2024 Vaikka bändin nimi onkin tuttu, Derek and the Dominoesia ei ole koskaan tullut kuunneltua. Yhtyeen yhteen albumiin jäänyt tuotanto ei sinänsä aiheuttanut väristyksiä, mutta silti ihan hienoa bluesmeininkiä. Ei sitten paljon muuta. Levyn fantastinen hittikappale "Layla" on itselläni jostain syystä aina henkilöitynyt Eric Claptonin kappaleeksi varmaankin sen 90-luvulla ilmestyneen akustisen version takia, mutta se on siis oikeasti Derek and the Dominoes -kappale josta krediitit menee Claptonin lisäksi rumpali Jim Gordonille. Jos bluesista tykkää, tämä on varmasti merkkiteos. Itselleni ei auennut uusia maailmoita tästä.

Ughhhh dad rock

Weird, kinda meh, basically forgot about it the second it ended

Meh.

Derek & The Dominos has not aged well. These guys make rock/blues boring. I'll take authentic OG blues, thank you.

Was wondering why this suckass dad rock shit was on the list. Then Clapton opened his mouth. There is too much hidden Clapton on this list. Soulless and self-indulgent. This is terrible. Sure, he can play. But the white boy blues act is pathetic. Layla is a decent song, but the singing is worthless. Will never listen to this again. 1.5/5

This album has a bunch of under 3 star songs, maybe some three star songs, and Layla (which is a song I never really liked anyway). It sits pretty consistently at a 2, and that’s what I’m going to give it. And it’s so damn long.

Talented musicians playing boring music. I was going to give this a 3*, but then they absolutely murdered Little Wing, which is one of my all time favorite recordings (Stevie Ray’s version first, Jimi a close second). Controversial statement of the day: Clapton is good, but way overrated.

DNF. Too long. Not terrible.

I expected to love this album because Lola is an absolute banger. However, listening to it made me realise that I’d maybe only listened to a shorter radio edit. Did you know there is a whole second half that’s more piano focused, with noodling guitar over it? I found this to be a common theme on the album, as almost every track would have been more better if the second have was scrapped and there was a bit less fret wanking. Don’t get me wrong, Clapton is a great guitarist. However, too much of a good thing can make it actually become a bit shit.

A couple of genuine rock-and-roll tracks interspersed throughout a bunch typical Clapton hyperformulaic blues-rock tracks. Another 1 hour+ of absolute banality suitable only for boomers to play in their man caves while drinking light beer and being mad about taxes.

Эрик Клаптон? Значит будет скукота смертная. Лучшая песня - Layla.

It was aight. Kinda bland for most of it tho

Layla er en ganske, men ellers et jævnt, men småkedeligt album...

Too long

2.5 really besides for Layla and and bell bottom blues there really ain’t much great about the album

right up my alley, but it didn’t quite grip me the way I was wanting it to

Only knew Layla and never really liked that song. Rest is not better, too long and with a "Look at me being brilliant" vibe. Don't hate it but don't like it either.

No me ha parecido interesante

A little long but I had way more fun with this than I thought I would. Feels like Clapton flexing his blues roots a lot more. Don't know if i love it as an "album" experience but there are some good cuts on here besides Layla which is the standout track.

Honestamente, se você me coloca 10 segundos de cada música e pedisse pra mim identificar, eu não acertaria uma. Tudo soa parecido nesse álbum. Só Layla se salva, e por qualquer motivo esqueceram de separar duas músicas diferentes nela. Então assim: Álbum cheio de música genérica e 3 minutos de uma das melhores músicas que eu já ouvi seguido de 4 minutos de mais do mesmo.

Liked Song Layla

Bit too country folk for my tastes. Also the songs are loooong, especially those solos. Layla slaps though so have to give it to them for that.

All songs are very same-ish and no real bangers except for Layla

Despite iconic tracks like "Layla," the album feels uneven and overindulgent. The musicianship is impressive, but the emotional impact falls short. A few standout moments, but overall, it doesn’t fully connect.

dur nur nurt

This fits in the class that Dylan and Young used to fill for me, boring folksy music that just doesn't grab me. But I eventually came to appreciate D & Y, but I'm just not there with this album. 2 stars, sorry Layla.

Eric Clapton is a cunt. Bell Bottom Blues is a killer song tho and Duane Allman is always a welcome edition

Avoided this for a couple of days for I am not a fan of Clapton both as a musician and as a personality. The guitar work on this album is impressive, but I much prefer the moodier or poppier tracks such as "Bell Bottom Blues" and "Little Wing" over the meandering blues improvisation numbers. There is an audience for this type of album, but it is not for me. Favorite Track: Keep On Growing Rating: 5/10

Hes one of the best. Didn’t know about this album really but enjoyed it along with some of his classics.

dreary

Tedious noodling blues-rock. The second half of Layla is good though.

Standard blues rock with Laila as yhe stand out track

Okay. A bit too much guitar solos... Not my thing.

nope

What a strange album. It should get a prize for worst album name as well, I think. Cheese deluxe. Some pretty sweet blues here and there, but got quite boring quickly. Whole album was hovering around 2 stars for me until I got to 'Layla'. That was also when I thought "wait, isn't this an Eric Clapton song?". And that's when I realized this was his band before he went solo. Interesting. Anyways, that song slaps so hard it's ridiculous. I have heard it before many times, but either this version had more energy than I'm used to or I had just forgot how good it was. Perhaps the 2nd half could be cut off, but still. It definitely doesn't fit in with the rest of the album's theme or sound, but it's without a doubt the best song of the album, and the only reason to listen to it in my opinion. It also explains why they put it in the album title. Even though 'Layla' is superb, I still have to give this album 2 stars since most of it was a drag.

Not necessarily bad, just kind of generic and bland blues rock. Failed completely to grab my interest. Sure "Layla" is a good song but I can't remember any of the others. Actually that is not entirely true, the cover of "Little Wing" stood out. Not a great cover as the original is better but I didn't think it was terrible either.

Tl;dr: this album is a mess. I love how Derek & The Dominos got there name by someone messing their original name Eric & the Dynamos up. And they just said "that sounds better" and kept it. I had to look at the wiki because I remembered that there were a few covers on this album. Out of the 14 songs, 5 are covers. That's a lot for a debut album... Honestly, they could've done maybe one or two and maybe had a more cohesive album. The covers stand out from the originals for sure. But they all flow in a way... The guitar tone isn't great in this record. And the vocals sound bad. The recording of the vocals do not due this record justice. I think this record I plagued by a lot of talent and ego. There is a lot of ideas going on and often times the record sounds noisy, in a bad way. There isn't room for instruments or vocals to breathe, per se. The song Layla is about Claptons creepy infatuation of Pattie Boyd, George Harrison's then wife. The fact this record is called 'Layla And Other Assorted Love Songs' and knowing the meaning behind the focal song, Layla... Clapton really comes off as a douchebag. I picture Clapton being that guy at a party who picks up a guitar and tries to impress every woman with his guitar skills. He doesn't care if they are single or not... He's Eric Clapton, he is better than everyone. That's how I feel about Clapton after this record. Anyways, back to the record... Again, it's not terrible. It's not the worst thing ever written.. But do I want to go back to it? Is there something on this record that I need to show anyone? That I need to make reference to? Other artists in this genre and era have just written better records. And that's not to slam the abilities of the force that this band is capable of... But there is a reason why this record was a failure at first.... Really enjoyed Key To The Highway. Great guitar work. But not an original.... Soo, like I said, the talent is there. The original's just aren't interesting. Even the song Layla... Yes, it's overplayed, and without a doubt it has fatigued everyone's ears.. But the unplugged Clapton version is far superior. The ending solo is just musician masterbation at its finest... And not a lot is going on. Could easily just had a fade out. The final song should've been axed.

the album does have a few okay songs, however, all of them but one are covers (and still can't hold a candle to the original). Layla is not included in that list, by the way, and is highly overrated – it's the epitome of dad rock, but the uncool one. Clapton is a decent guitar player, but that isn't enough to redeem this extremely boring and derivative album. ugh

Every once in a while I would be talking to my dad and I’d start talking shit about Eric Clapton. My dad wasn’t a very opinionated guy, but would always say, in that situation, “I never liked much of his stuff either, but Layla is a really good record.” He didn’t seem to care much one way or another, he wasn’t passionate about Layla or anything, but he still always put it out there. Anyway it had been a long time since I had listened to Layla, and now I have again, and I still think my dad was wrong about this one. It is what it is.

An impressive showcase of guitar playing - but a disappointing album.

Divorced dad blooz 1-3-5 pretty boring tbh. Waaaaay too long.

Can you die several times of boredom? I naively thought that you couldn't. Thank you for Clapton and friends to help me push the boundaries of the Unknown. OK, let's aknowledge the fact that Clapton gave here an almost Comprehensive Encyclopedia of Licks in only 75 minutes.

I don't like Eric Clapton. I heard way too much dad rock growing up, and I'm pretty sick of it. However, I can't deny that Delaney and Bonnie were a great group, and I can't hate this album, but I have to draw the line at these wanky long jams that the classic rock years are known for. Nine-and-a-half minutes of "Key To The Highway"?! Three or four minutes makes the point. Get over yourselves.

Why does love have to be so sad’ and a couple of other bits where they do the fast blues/country rock thing (largely I think as one of the Allman brothers plays). Otherwise it’s pretty dull blues rock about how much Eric Clapton wants to steal George Harrison’s wife. I think this album marks the point post Cream and Blind Faith where Eric Clapton loses any interest to me. 2/5

Overstays it's welcome. There's no reason this needs to be nearly as long as TPAB. Definitely a "one and done" type of album, where I find the tracks I like first listen and then return to those and those alone.

This album starts off very weak. Meaning almost the entire first half and most of the start of the second half (outside of Bell Bottom Blues of course). But man oh man, does this album ever end strongly, with its 3 best tracks right at the end. Still though, it took a literal hour to get there, and I'm already not really a Clapton fan

It was ok

Meeeeh

Best Song: Layla. An iconic riff that's just smooth as butter. Worst Song: I Am Yours. I just really don't like this kind of "beach-y" guitar riffing. Overall: Overly long. Everyone knows that Clapton can play the guitar, but he also (to my admittedly ignorant ear) doesn't feel like he has a ton of variability or even originality. His solos are incredible, but the rest of the songs feel largely uninteresting. Every Clapton guitar track sounds the same, and that sameness is sleepy.

A couple decent tracks (quite enjoyed the cover of Little Wing) but all starts to sound the same. Not sure where the hype for this album really comes from. I maintain the only great thing Clapton ever did was his involvement with Cream 2.5

Fin baggrunds lyd, men hvis jeg lytter efter, så keder musikken mig, og lyricen kan jeg heller ikke fokusere på. Så alt i alt er jeg glad for at kunne bruge en hel weekend på at kæmpe mig igennem. Layla virker bekendt.... 🤷

Pretty good need to keep listening

This album is average. Most of the songs are simple and relatively uninteresting. All in all not horrible, but definitely in the bottom 50%. 2.4/5 but will need to round down. 2/5.

вы когда-нибудь любили женщину? музыка хорошая, но альбом просто невероятно длинный. ощущение, что он длится часа три и пацаны конечно хорошо дрочат гитарки, но уже под конец сил не осталось

cool to hear eric doing this stuff but not for me

..

White men playing middle of the road blues music. Layla is alright.

This just feels kinda... bland? I ended up listening to this a few times and it never stuck. 4.5/10

so many people in the world and this guy can’t stop whining about not being able to be with his FRIEND’s wife??? NEXT. (the guitar was nice tho)

Clapton is an exceptional guitarist but I find this album kinda boring. There are some nice blues riffs and saucy solos but It’s like diet Stevie ray vaughn imo. Anyways, I’m just just here so I won’t get fined

Racist

Very boring

Very bluesy

Before listening, I was familiar with Bell Bottom Blues and Layla, and I liked Layla. After listening, I added Layla and Anyday to my list. But wow was this a slog. I would call it Layla and Assorted Overwrought Blues Jams. And then they have the audacity to throw that final song at you, which demonstrates they do possess acoustic guitars and can write a song that sounds even a little different from every other song. It was both a breath of fresh air and a little insulting. Now I’m fired up. I was between 2 and 3 stars but I’ve talked myself into 2.

Bygone era

Best Songs: Bell Bottom Blues Listen Again: No

just boring. even Layla is tedious, there's nothing to it beyond the riff

Other than Layla didn't care about any of the other songs.

2/5. Everything sounded the same but Layla was pretty good.

One hour and fifteen from the old r****t Eric, a double helping of smug self-satisfied blues rock. There is a little bit of energy that saves it from one star, but the coda to Layla goes on and on and is a classic example of more is less. And it doesn't have Wonderful Tonight on, so there's that.

Boring, noodley grandpa jams.

Really only liked ‘Layla’

Only liked Layla.

un poco monótono

Good, not my preferred style of classic rock.

I thought it would be better, but was skipping songs.

Not my favorite love album

Not a fan but glad he decided to go solo

Only recognized one of the songs on the album. It was nice to listen to some new stuff (for me). A bit slower and found myself losing interest, but for the time period I think it was pretty unique sounds. Overall, I'd give it a 2.75/5

Eric Clapton's band. Layla is great, and the Love Sad song too, but the rest is pretty bland honky tonk.

Has it’s moments

A bit bland. Nothing memorable.

I don't really like this kind of blues music. This is fine though. Unremarkable. It's music that was at least two decades old in 1970. Noodley guitar work. It settles quickly into by-the-numbers blues chords and beats you down until Layla comes in (too late) with some genuine passion and clever playing.

With a name like that I thought I was gonna love it. Struggled to listen through to the end tbh. Dad rock. Pretty good guitar saved it, but I won’t be revisiting this one.

pretty sure i could’ve died without ever having heard this album.

I enjoyed a few of these songs but still not really my kind of music

Meh

Much better Clapton than Cream. It’s not bad. It’s just Clapton. Music is fine. Not my thing.

Didn't hate this, but it felt like it went on forever, and all the songs sounded the same.

Layla is good, rest can be skipped.

voel em nie zo

Layla is great

Something not rock lsl

- some good soft rock but bloated as hell - another boring record that people wouldn’t care about if it wasn’t clappy FAVS: i looked away, bell bottom blues, thorn tree in the garden

Not really feeling this one

Sucks. Just boring white-dude blues rock. I don't get it. Allman bro work on this is decent though, saving it from being a 1/5 2/5

Fine. Didn't grab me but I liked it.

I appreciate it's place in rock history but to me personally this is a 'meh'. Not a bad album, far from it. It just doesn't do anything for me.

It's ok. Has a country, bluesy twang to it. I gave up 3/4 of the way in, though.

2 stars for generic 60s wibbling UK blues. +1 star for Layla (although, even now, that songs drags on after the monster opening doesn't it?) -1 star for being a racist bigoted prick

Samey. Not engaging for me.

Ok

Wow, this thing is bloated. This thing is a chore to sit through because most of the songs are three minutes longer than they need to be. Those extra three minutes just sound like noodling. Just very generic dad rock from Clapton. Not saying it sounds bad, there’s some ok songs in here, but it’s just a drag to get to them.

The guitars are good. Not much else though

I won’t be such a Goodfella in reviewing this album since Layla was the only song that got me on my knees.

I don't know how this got extended to a double album, it has one good song, and even that is good not because of Eric Clapton, but Jim Gordon's piano in the coda. The rest is filler.

Overly long and so loses a star. But I do enjoy his guitar playing.

Not a good workout album so far. Kind of old school cool patio drinking vibes. Was Eric Clapton in this band? Bluesy complaints about women.

There’s some good white-guy-Blues in here but man…what a gauntlet to have to run. Such a bloated and ostentatious record. This certainly falls in the time period where Clapton wasn’t outwardly enough of an asshole to make him totally unlistenable, but the signs are certainly there. Trim this down a bit and you’ve got a solid album, but as it stands right now it’s rough.

Overstays it’s welcome. This did not need to be an 1 hour 17 minutes long. Plus the two best songs are about wanting to bang George Harrison’s wife.

Incredibly bland, surface level rock. I find eric to be a rather faceless guitarist, especially for someone who has such a large tendency to overshine the other group members. Sadly, the rest of the lyrical and musical content follows suit with Clapton's guitar and only Layla, which is a fantastic song, manages to look at all beyond the bare minimum for rock in its peak era.

Yeah I dont know…. Nothing really exciting for me… Not even Layla

Ganske kjipt

Fuck this self-righteous asshole. I’m not listening to over an hour of mediocre blues. (But I did skip through it enough to justify my rating!)

1 hour long blues-y rock songs, just to Clapton show off his guitar skills. A very mediocre album with great guitar solos.

Very standart blues album. I am not the biggest fan of Eric Clapton. The cover of Little Wing is fun and witty.

Didn't do much for me

Just alright.

I understand why this is on the list, but apart from 3 or 4 of the Assorted Love Songs, I found this so meandering and uninteresting. Obviously Clapton is a very talented guitarist, but he plays with so little emotion; it's like someone taught a robot to play the guitar. A really xenophobic, anti-vax robot.

Layla is the only enjoyable song

Too long to listen again in one day but this is nothing special. Besides Layla of course.

I know it’s an algorithmic random generator, but I think they missed a trick by not tweaking the algorithm to play Sinéad O’Connor today (for those who had not already heard it). Instead we get this dreary, dull miasma of love songs. More D words for Derek and his dominoes - I felt detached, disconnected and a bit deflated. One point for artistry. One point for Layla - it’s an undeniable classic. Half a point for the Frandsen de Schomberg cover. Nil points for the Terrible version of Little Wing. The rest is Dreck!

All the songs just went on too long. Layla and Bell Bottom Blues are classics.

I'm drawn to this album cover as a piece of art. The music, however, meh.

Kinda cheating cos I honestly couldn’t Finnish this perhaps the biggest slog I’ve listened to (laylas great tho)

"Layla," and some other shit, played by a racist stealing blues licks and sucking the life out of them.

It has its moments, but the inseccent bluesy noodling over the same old chord progressions gets a bit old.

I used to really like "Layla" (the guitar melody catching my imagination as a kid, and the piano coda revealing itself as the really good bit over time). Not so much any more - gotta grimly appreciate how ol' racisthand ensures the sole highlight of this album now sounds terrible by mere association with the other crap on it. Tedious white blues, southern fried guitar wankery and horrible bloat make for an unpleasant mix. Shite PS do you think Hendrix got an advance tape? "Little Wing" on here could certainly make me vomit in my sleep

This may be a bit of a sacred cow but it just sounds like like standard pub blues rock. The title track is a standout but otherwise very meh. EC is a cracist twat anyway

Very steady, extremely influential, dad's everywhere loved it but Clapton's a massive racist and much of it has been better achieved elsewhere. Blind Faith, for example, have many of the same band members but got more funk, soul and rock n roll from Ginger Baker and Steve Winwood than is ever achieved here. Far too much stable filler and a touch too much competence for its own good.

At first I tried to admire the excellent guitar work on each of the songs on this album but by about the halfway point of this 80 minute album I couldn’t take it anymore. This shit is made for the whitest of white dads and is very bland blues rock type stuff. Usually I’m pretty favorable to this stuff but it was just so boring. I won’t give it a 1 because Layla and nobody knows you are good but it’s only about a mid 2.

Unremarkable blues rock

The kind of album that I'd expect to hear around the campfire at a party in the bush. Nothing really stands out until Layla kicks in.

Layla and other generic rock songs..

Layla a classic. 2 others of note. The rest didn’t move me

Really surprised by this album. Wasn’t really feeling it. Outside of Layla it really was pretty uninspiring. A couple others kinda felt good, but overall not the best. Layla is such a banger I will slide it through as a 2. T3B 1. Layla 2. Bell Bottom Blues 3. Little Wing

Feelar Klapton int kan laga swag blues, de blir ba o låta som (helt decent) pastiche. Soloandet är det överlägset sämsta, känns bara som (workmanlike) soloande o inge mer. De e definitivt va som får det att kännas så långtråkigt, plus att allt bortsett de två sista låtarna är väldigt likadant:( Layla = ultrablassic och kovern är bra

Layla and other assorted filler.

you got me on my knees

I have never listened to this record. Of course, I've heard the popular songs on the album, but never listened to the whole record in one sitting. Let's do it. First, note - not a fan of Eric Clapton's voice. Never have been. Second, note - not a big fan of twangy guitar rock. I can understand the popularity of this record, but it's not for me. Had to turn it off after the 4th song.

Definitely high profile in its genre, and the guitar work is amazing on some of the tracks, but it's just blues rock at the end of the day. The best songs are easily the two most famous (Layla and bell bottom blues), while most of the album was kind of forgettable and didn't age as well as the hits.

Dacht dat dit een goed album ging zijn, maar was dralend. Sowieso een ster aftrek voor wat ze met Little Wing hebben gedaan.

Det är inte helkasst och en del riktiga klassiker, men över en timmes blues-gitarr-runkande av en rasist blir lite för mycket. Gillar Bell Bottom Blues starkt.

The music is fine enough, but goddamn this is a long album and on a personal level Eric Clapton fucking sucks.

This wasn't very exciting. It wasn't bad, but some of the songs were covered better by other bands. I kept thinking that the driving blues would go somewhere but it just kind of felt stagnant. Overall, forgettable. It did have the original version of Layla on it though. Didn't realize this was a group with Eric Clapton.

What an appropriately titled album. "Layla and some other stuff."

A nice collection, definately interesting to see eric claptone here. But not for me

Came for Layla and didn't stay for the rest.

Todo bien con Eric pero despues de 20 minutos con la guitarrita ya me pudrí honestamente......... let alone 1h15m. Así y todo lo escuche entero pero no lo volveria a hacer para nada. Siento que es como un all things must pass de geroge harrison pero muy inferior. 4/10

If you like the most generic classic rock imaginable sung by a racist, this is the album for you

layla’s pretty great but the rest of it makes me think of “blues” night at the pub

Masturbatory guitar solos by a racist. Bell-bottom Blues is a good jam though

Ah no this has way too much of the Claptons about it... I could hear him all over the songs from the start. This album is not all about Clapton by any means, and it's cool reading the story of how it came about... But I just don't like Clapton. I guess I feel like to me his music is mostly about trying to do something which was already done by Black people but making it extremely boring and removing all the spice. So as a result I can't get on board with this album because to me it's just more of that. Apart from Little Wing and It's too late, together these two tracks bring my rating up a bit. Particularly It's Too Late which has more of a spicy bluesy feel to it which I much prefer to all the self-indulgent boring noodly guitar solos.

“Derek & The Dominos” as a name cracks me up. Right up there with “Freddy’s Formula.” Don’t really care for the music tho, boomer vacation vibes

2 good songs: Layla and Bell bottom blues. The rest is boring ego trips

Middle of the road rock. It’s fine. Clapton is such a dick though. I hate giving him credit for anything.

Well most of it is exactly what you'd expect from the racist child killer Eric Clapton when he hasn't got the cool members of Cream keeping him in check. But, it has Layla on it which is a tune, though the best bit is the piano. And the organ and piano throughout is great and I may Google who that was when I'm done, cos they're clearly great.

Couldn’t really care about this album. Idk why.

Way too long record with a weird mix of originals and covers from a guy who is quite good at playing the guitar but does not seem to have any other redeeming qualities. One star each for 'Bell Bottom Blues' and 'Layla'.

I'm sorry, but... yawn. I don't see the appeal in Clapton.

This isn’t the D&D night that we signed up for. Bored us to tears. We will be taking our money elsewhere next time. 0 stars

Herkenbaar gitaargeluid, maar ik wordt er wat kriebelig van.

Het ene oor in, het andere oor uit. Niet slecht, niet vervelend, niet leuk en dus niet nodig!

Skiva jag ägt. Måhända att Slowhand är en av världens skickligaste gitarrister men jag går inte igång på det här. Låten Layla är dock en femma.

Layla bangs but the rest is pretty mediocre

Can’t listen to Eric Clapton without getting irrationally upset about his behavior off stage.

Mit Layla ein absoluter Topsong vorhanden, der gesamte Rest ist gewißermaßen austauschbar und klingt irgendwie "gleich"

Did not like

Eh it was okay.

sin más

Not really a fan of blues-rock (or Eric Clapton for that matter) so I found a lot of it dull and overlong, the sound is over-compressed so there's some distortion when the band gets going. I assume this is the remastering as it's horrible digital distortion not sweet analogue warmth.

Bog standard white boy blurs rock.

Dull, nothing challenging here. Move on.

Bag of shit

The guitar work is incredible, but found it got uninteresting during the course of these overlong tracks on an overlong album.

Boring, underwhelming, and far too long.

I don't like Eric Clapton. Strap in and let me count the ways...: Well yes he sucks as a human being. But damnit I'll say it: I do not get the hype as a guitar player. He wasn't particularly innovative nor interesting in any way whatsoever to me. Blues riffs yada yada yada. Snooze. Switch stations. If you just want to stick to the era give me Blackmore/Beck/Hendrix/Page (who annoyed me as a lead player but his chord voicings and progressions were one of a kind)/Gilmour/Townshend all day every day instead and that's naming only some of the so-called classic contemporary rockers of the 60s/early 70s...I could list 100+ more that were far more exciting or emotive or unique. I emulated a lot of guitarists and styles over the past decades and never once did I yearn to cop anything Clapton ever did. Boring. Plus songwriting?? Jeeez most of his solo material is utter shit. Lay Down Sally good god man i hated that song with a passion when i was SIX - it was all over AM radio. I knew even then I was not a fan. Have I expressed this enough?? ... Ok. Now ... this album is not that bad. :D But let's be honest - it's really just the title track "Layla" that carries it all - as much as I laid out the reasons I don't like Clapton (oh yeah i left out his singing...) this is a legit classic song which definitely goes on too long, but then is rescued by the out-of-nowhere long fantastic piano outro. If you haven't heard this song you're about to join the 99% who have. The rest? It's fine at best. Although god DAMN it's too long. Virtually all bluesy laid-back guitar rock - not my favourite style at all, but it's made relatively more-interesting with Duane Allman's cool slide guitar. I was originally going to give this a 3 for "everyone should hear/know Layla" but it takes forever to even get there and by the time I did get to it I just wanted anything else...I can't get into this. If you're into blues guitar this is fine I suppose. For a good example of what makes me roll my eyes at Clapton, see: "I Am Yours" - it's not that it's mellow, it's that it's...annoyingly laconic. No more Clapton please. 4/10 2 stars.

I appreciated that this album showed up in the project. These are indisputably amazing musicians. I certainly wanted to like it. It started with a fairly high rating. And then it went on and on and on. My personal feeling is that this period and genre have been over-represented in this project, but it may just be that I've never really been into the guitar rock of this era and I'm just getting over listening to so much of it. After an hour and ten minutes of long blues guitar solos and more long blues guitar solos, and I was begging it to please, please, please end, finally came "Layla," which is what I'd come for. It's truly an incredible song, both movements. "I Am Yours" was the only other song that stood out for me, and I quite liked it.

I really don't understand the hype with Eric clapton. Not an bad album but nothing that made me go like wow!

Boring. I liked the bit from Goodfellas but even that went on a bit.

Little Wing and Layla are decent songs, which annoys me: After an hour I really wanted to hate this record purely. That's not dissimilar to my confusing vendetta against guitars generally. Part of it's just the narcissism of a bad violinist, but part is legitimate or at least grounded in reality: The reality of mediocre few-chord noodling on a cheap instruments. Far be it from me to accuse the musicians here of being technically inferior, but there are formal similarities: Cheap bluesy frameworks and totally underwhelming soloing. "Worse than the Eagles" was an early thought and still true: That band understands the occasional need for a gimmick, but they haven't convinced themselves that supposed guitar-godliness is sufficient.

Not as enjoyable as anticipated. Some highlights but overall not my thing.

Starts well. Gets boring.

In which Eric Clapton's (then) unrequited hard-on for George Harrison's wife results in a classic example of the double album that should have been a single album. Or maybe even just a single, the title track with the second half chopped off with one of the less tedious tracks on the B-side would've been more than enough... I've never had much use for "God", and on this revisit to this album (wasn't a fan first time round either) I still don't. And I may actually hate this version of "Little Wing", ludicrously overcooked and completely missing the point of the original.

Layla is a great song, though this is not my favourite version of it. All the rest of these songs were kinda dumb. But I guess that's love songs for ya. I'd say 2.5 only because of Layla, so I'll rate it a 2.

Not interesting

Ok. I hear this once and go - ugh white man blues again - and oh did not know Eric Clapton’s Layla was a cover - and everything I liked a song - I was seeing it was 6 to 7 minutes. The the incredibly long and boring Key to the Highway comes on and a bad cover of little wing? Total run time 1 hour 14 mins? Ugh. Who is this Derek and who are the dominos? oh it’s Eric Clapton? I hate Eric Clapton - and now Layla makes sense. One of the Allman’s is playing the cool riffs I like - then the band is shitting on then with 4 hour long solos. Is this album really about Eric Clapton shitty pining about his best friend’s (George Harrison) wife Patty Boyd? Really? What a dick. Then I go look let me give it one more listen - and it’s better on second listen - but it’s still way to bloody long - too many solos but good musicianship. Could have easily been halved in length but Clapton is always oh so ever self absorbed he can’t take himself down a notch and see that his head is up his own arse.

I've never been a big fan of Clapton, so I've never sought out his work. I've found his solo work boring and I never thought Cream lived up to the hype. Like, I seriously don't get why people thought he was the best rock guitarist. So, in listening to this in its entirety for the first time today I found it to be better than I was expecting. I got bored before it ended -- they probably could have trimmed 30 mins from the 75, but I didn't turn it off either. I doubt I'd voluntarily listening to it again, but if it was playing in the background somewhere I don't think I'd complain.

An interminable album by an alcoholic racist – who stole a piano part from a bandmate's girlfriend – best known for a song about how he wanted to bone a good mate's wife. Big selection of "put this on so the DJ can take a shit" tracks.

Loved Thorn Tree in the Garden. Layla might've been overrated.

I'm not a big fan of Eric Clapton or Duane Allman but I was gonna let this pass with a 3 after listening to the first few tracks. It's at least more engaging than Clapton's solo stuff. Then I noticed there's an hour and 15 minutes to this blues rock wankfest! And I've got not one, but two guitar heroes trying diddle my ears - sometimes from both directions at once! No thanks.

White people co-opting the blues, watering it down and calling it something different. I appreciate learning the source of a bunch of songs that I've always heard playing, but I don't think I need to listen to this again.

There was a lot to unpack here. I had somehow not heard of this band ever. Based on the name I thought it was going to be an early rock'n'roll type album. You know, the kind playing at the soda fountain/ sock hop/ whatever the hell kids did back then. It was not. It's a blues rock album. I typically hate blues rock. I also have ambivalence about Clapton. I think he can be pretty good at times (Cream, a couple solo tracks) or insufferable at others (most of his solo work, his personality) I was anticipating a 1 star album especially with that run time, but I was surprised, well a little anyway. The first few songs were not bad at all. I actually kinda dug em. Despite the title Bell Bottom Blues was probably my favorite track here. Then the downslide came. Key To The Highway and most of the album on was not for me. Long winded. Blues heavy. Uninteresting. God I hated Key To The Highway. Stick a car key in my ear drum level hate. Things got better with Little Wing but then went south again. The big hit and title track of this album kinda sucks. Somehow I never heard it in my 36 years prior and I didn't really need to. A bit wanky and not that interesting. Overall it wasn't THAT bad. It could've been pretty damn good if some tracks were cut or edited down a bit. Probably a 3 overall but loses a whole star for Clapton being a chode and more importantly for Key To The Highway being almost 10 minutes of blues rock bullshit. God.

Ripley is a village in Surrey, England, lying on the main road from London to Portsmouth. The village includes a coaching inn, the Talbot Inn, which dates back to 1453. The village church of St Mary Magdalen has a fine Norman chancel and is a Grade II* listed building. Eric Clapton was born there. He’s perfectly placed, therefore, to interpret the music of Chicago and the Mississippi Delta. When not content ripping off the music of black Americans, Clapton will happily steal the gorgeous piano riff from Layla (which is still an energetic, cinematic track) from his band mate’s girlfriend, Rita Coolidge.

This is one long album clocking in at 77 minutes one of the longer albums I've listened to so far throughout this journey. It's blues rock focus can at times feel a bit repetitive and a lot of the guitar solos could have neatened up the album a bit. Best: Bell Bottom Blues; Layla Worst: Key to the Highway

Not as flabby as I remembered it - but the guitars do widdley-widdle on, without moving through the gears, and Eric is in full anguished mode throughout.

Layla is a great song but the rest is pretty generic blues rock.

Well they can play guitar, and do so a lot...

1870. Layla

pleasant mix of rock folk and blues. just a shame Clapton is a total shit. colours my opinion whether i like it or not.

Title track is obviously a classic but otherwise it's a fairly standard blues rock album with uninspired guitar noodling. Never really seen the appeal in Clapton.

Maybe I've just heard some of these songs too many times to care anymore?

Beige... saccharine... meh

Eriče Klaptonče, definitivno si napravio blues album. Not great, no terrible. Dvojka za mene.

Eric Clapton, more like Eric Crapton amirite?!?! Hehe Ugl, solidan blues rock, nije loš, Keep on Growing je baš dobra stvar, priznajem. Layla naravno isto. Predugo traje album, po men se odugovlači dosta, šamaranje. Možda još jer nisam neki raspoložen za ovakvu glazbu danas, moguće je sve. Odličan cover albuma, šteta sta nisu tako i pjesme.

A ono oke je, lagano je za slusat, al nist sta nisam cuo vec 100 puta so its a no from me dawg

Layla is a great track & I remember getting excited every time it came on the radio in my pre-teen years. I Turned Away and a couple of the others songs I like (not to mention the guitar playing), but for me, the blues-rock isn't very inspired & weighs the album down. Cream was pushing the needle forward a few years early but this is a step back for EC. If you were to compare these tracks and the delivery to other LPs from that era, like The Allman Brothers or even blues-inflected songs by the Doors or The Stones, these are substandard.

Клептон баянно-рокенрольный

couple of songs

This blues rock double album is the sole album created by Eric Clapton's band - Derek & The Dominos - and as the title states, it's a collection of love songs. At release it was a commercial and critical failure, but over time it has been considered Eric's best work and is now certified gold. I wasn't really interested in any particular songs off the album, but it made great background music for work. Perhaps someone in love would enjoy listening to this album.

Meh, appreciate the technicality, but wouldn't listen over and over again

Honestly, too long. Some nice blues rock but there is better.

Layla. Classic. Clapton was a bit of a shit to George Harrison though wasn’t he?

Alright. Layla obvs the highlight.

Album title says it all, right?

Layla sounds familiar... the others didn’t really stick out to me

Disappointed in this. General upbeat light blues songs but no great discoveries.

A mi esto en 2021 me atufa un poco a dadrock y sinceramente pa ser de 1970 con hendrix ya comiendo suelo y los beatles separaos no le veo mucho el fuste

I’ve never been a big Clapton fan, and this album didn’t really change that, but if there’s one song I do like it’s “Layla”. “Key to the Highway” was pretty good too, but the whole thing is just too long.

A mellow album of love songs. 1RS

Some good songs but not my style.

Not great. Just what you’d expect.

It’s me, it’s not the music, but it’s Eric Clapton - so I hate everything about him , his history and his politics, so… I listened but still a 1
