Eric Clapton Live Performance of Layla in Montreal

Venue: Centre Bell Location: Montreal, Quebec, Canada Date: May 28, 2008

In May 2008, Eric Clapton was touring in support of his album 'Back Home,' which marked a significant return after a decade. 'Back Home' showcases Clapton's signature blend of blues and rock, featuring a mix of original songs and covers. This period in his career reflects a more introspective phase, where Clapton delved into themes of love and personal reflection. Performing 'Layla' live in Montreal, he not only thrilled fans with that classic track but also echoed his evolution as an artist through the years. Interestingly, 'Layla' itself has grown from its original release in the early '70s, becoming a staple in Clapton's live repertoire and a testament to his enduring appeal. In this performance, you can feel the emotion and depth that Clapton pours into each note, highlighting his dynamic artistry and connection with the audience.
