Layla - Guitar Lesson. Let’s Analyse the Harmony of this Classic Clapton Tune. Guitar Daily Ep 318

In this guitar lesson, I dive into the iconic Eric Clapton track Layla, as recorded with Derek and the Dominos. While many listeners focus on the unforgettable riff and soaring solos, the song’s harmonic structure is far more complex than it first appears. With unexpected key changes and sophisticated modulations, Layla takes us on a rich musical journey that goes well beyond the surface.
