Listening To Layla
Seven decades old today
And years away from Cream,
Eric Clapton, on guitar,
Will always reign supreme.
Listening to “Layla,”
I’m amazed it sounds so fresh,
Like the man himself were standing here
Before me, in the flesh.
A rocker keeps on rocking
Often to the crowd’s lament
But in Clapton’s case, quite clearly,
Time has barely made a dent!
