Perhaps the best cover is of blues and guitar legend Freddie King’s Have You Ever Loved A Woman. The guitar work from both men is infectious and the song contains perhaps the most apt lyric of all: “You just love that woman/So much it’s a shame and a sin/But all the time you know/She belongs to your very best friend.” A masterpiece Eric Clapton – Christie's Guitar Auction Part 2 of 3".

The emergence of Hendrix, shortly afterwards made the hype seem even more preposterous. Cream and Blind Faith were two of the most hyped bands in history. Clapton had just released his remarkably poor first solo album in July 1970 - an album unimpressive in all departments. Four months later, astoundingly, Layla & Other Assorted Love Songs appears!

The band played their first live show at Lyceum Ballroom on London on June 14, 1970 as part of a summer tour of the UK. The band went on to record Layla and Other Assorted Love Songs between late August and early October, with the additional weighty presence of Allman Brothers’ guitarist Allman. When recording was complete, they returned to the road for US and UK tours. Sadly the band didn’t last much longer, but they left behind a memorable recorded statement.
