AM I HERE TO AMUSE YOU??? • Actually, yes! I hope so anyway. Please join me as I explore how the song “Layla” by Derek and the Dominos corresponds to the Riddle of the Sphynx of ancient Greek mythology. • What does Eric Clapton’s cry of the heart over the loverly Pattie Boyd have to do with the tragedy of Oedipus Rex? Why does a section with no lyrics make us feel such longing and tug at our heart strings so? Why was it the perfect choice for that famous scene in Martin Scorsese’s Goodfellas? • #ericclapton #layla #sphinx #derek
