A Layla 2 album with Eric and Duane would have been nice. But At Filmore East shows he made the right decision. I think his slide solo on Have You Ever Loved a Woman is the best of his career as a session player.
Had Duane lived, there's no doubt they'd have played again together. They both enjoyed it too much. But yeah, Duane made the right decision, especially after playing live with them. It only took two gigs for him to know, "Nah, that's not nearly as good as what I'm doing in my own band."
Enjoyed the read. I’ll have to get your book. After I read this I threw Derek & the Dominos Live on the turntable. So thanks for that!
thank you. And the answer is always yes when the question is “Do you want to listen to Derek & the Dominos?”
I wonder how many times Duane and Eric crossed paths was that couple weeks together the only time ?
not sure they ever saw each other again after Duane played those 2 gigs with the Dominos in December 1970.
