On occasion, we would find ourselves in different groups of friends, talking or drinking, even dancing, and even if we only got one dance together, we went home feeling happy and wonderful ! We had a great group of friends and attended many dinner parties with them, and at each one, I could not believe my luck when I would glance in her direction ! Over 50 years now . . . 🇨🇦

Dire Straits were the headline act at this concert. Eric was only there because their regular rhythm guitarist Jack Sonni's wife had just given birth to twins and he stood in for him. Mark Knopfler being his usual generous self incorporated a couple of Eric's songs into their set. Later that year Mark and Dire Straits' keyboard player Alan Clarke joined Eric as band members on his 25th anniversary tour.

Dire Straits' great rhythm guitar player Jack Sonni (RIP) was at the birth of his twin daughters, so Dire Straits had to find another player. Eric is lovingly referred to as the "tricky little inside left", who's "never played at Wembley before" (Mark says this in the opening song). Overall this is a great concert, with Brothers in Arms probably being the highlight. But great versions of all Straits' songs here as well as Clapton

Clapton stood in last moment for their usual rhythm guitarist as his wife was about to give birth. It was a favour as Mark has been a guest at some of his shows and afterwards joined Eric on the American leg of his tour. This is from the Nelson Mandela 70th Birthday Concert which Dire Straits headlined.

Mind you, I am a huge Clapton fan, and this song is one of my favorites, but Eric has had his issues with addiction. Those of us there in the day, when he was so far gone, he had to lay on his back and play. But still, we loved him, and still do today. Check out "Tears in Heaven" if you have not. Also, check him out with "Cream" Live at Royal Albert Hall. Huge reunion with one of his former bands, huge crowd.

For an earlier chapter, listen to "Layla" soon, remember it's about the same lady. This is a wonderful love song, so tender. Clapton's expressed love for Patti Harrison may make him PDC-worthy. That story is better than anything Hollywood can produce. Clapton's look certainly changes a lot over the years!

I’m pretty sure this came from the “Nelson Mandela” concert. He was still in prison at the time and this was part of the campaign to have him released.

So 3 of the most romantic and best songs were written about patty boyd. Who was married to George Harrison. Of the Beatles. Who was best friends with Eric Clapton. Who fell in love with his wife Patty Boyd. Who he wrote Layla about. And then Patty left George to be with Eric and married Eric. And George had written this song something about Patty and of course this song that you love so much was written about Patty Boyd, As for Eric and Mark Knopfler, the lead singer and driving force of Dire Straits. They became best friends because they probably are the two greatest guitarist in the world. And Erik would have something called the princess trust which was like 20 nights of concerts that was to raise money and, Knopfler and usually Elton John and others like Phil Collins and Cooper the famous percussionist always come and play withEric The musicianship when these guys play is literally off the charts

George Harrison of the Beatles was married to model Pattie Boyd, and Eric Clapton was his best friend. Eric (and many, MANY others) was in love with Pattie Boyd, and he essentially stole her from George. Eric - briefly leading a group called Derek And The Dominos - wrote a (very famous, popular rock) song called Layla about his love for her before he eventually got her. This song was written a while later, after they'd been together for a while. The crazy thing was, George and Eric continued to be best friends, despite Eric stealing Pattie from him.
@matthewdooley7855 5 ай бұрын
I think both men have a lot of empathy, and it would be heard for either of them to deny the love that the other man clearly had for the same woman. So at some level it's understandable.
