Song of the day for January 16, 2025

Layla (Acoustic) by Eric Clapton is today’s featured song.

On this day in 1992, Eric Clapton entered Windsor, England’s Bray Studios, to record a stripped-down set for MTV Unplugged, the wildly popular concert series that featured acoustic performances from superstar musicians. In front of an audience, the legendary artist delivered a moving set of blues standards, classic hits from his career, and new material, including “Layla” and a touching tribute to his recently departed son, “Tears in Heaven.” Released in August, Clapton’s Unplugged album not only became the best-selling album of his career, but also the best-selling live album of all time. The album earned Clapton six Grammy Awards and remains a favorite in his impressive catalog.
