The story of Pattie Boyd, Eric Clapton, and George Harrison is heartbreaking and fascinating. It led Eric and George to write some of the greatest love songs of all time such as Layla, Something, and Wonderful Tonight. This video follows their relationships in the 1960s and 1970s and the music that came out of this time.

This video took ages to make. I took a break from YouTube for a few months, but not intentionally, I just couldn't get anything to work. I think I was trying too hard. I initially started this video in October '22 but I had writer's block for ages. I kept trying to write the script but I wasn't getting anywhere. It just got worse and worse. In the end, I revisited the script in early '23 and was able to make a pretty good story out of it, I'm quite pleased with how this video turned out. I didn't want to make anyone in the story appear in a bad light, EC was one of my guitar heroes when I was younger. As I write this the video has 5.4k views, but I reckon it has the potential to get some more.

I read Patti Boyd's memoir. Her marriage to George started out well. Then George found eastern religion and completely checked out. Eric was obsessed with her as long as he couldn't have her. She was in the crossfire of two immature men, and she kept trying to do the right thing in an impossible situation. The good news is that she married a third time to a real grownup and it seems to be a happy marriage.

Poor woman. Just goes to show that mega famous men can write love songs about you all day long, but it doesn't mean they're going to love you any better.

Im glad to see this perspective on this. When i was a kid the media portrayed Patty as a casual bedhopper who was playing two men against each other.

I meet Patti a few years ago at one of her art shows in San Francisco California. She also brought the original oil painting for the Layla (Derek and the Dominos) album cover. Patti is one of the most beautiful people (inside and out) I ever met in this lifetime. I also gave her one of my photos of George. That moment in time I will forever cherish.

They both "loved her so much", but somehow they couldn't treat her right.

Poor Pattie. Yes she had two of the greatest songs ever written about her but the men who wrote them treated her as an inconvenience after she ceased to be their muse.

Ya know. As much as I dreamed of being a high profile musician in my youth and living the lifestyle of a "rockstar", I am so happy that it never came to be. I have the best relationship with the woman I have loved with all my heart for the last 37 years and NONE of the weird BS and mental BS that these people played upon one another. Musical genius's? Yes. Good and moral human being's? Not a chance. I sleep well at night with my choices.

Patti commented on a video once that Eric just wanted what George had so he went after her but treated her poorly once he “had” her.

Clapton and Harrison loved themselves more than they loved Patti.

An interviewer asked Olivia Harrison (George's second wife) how they kept their marriage together. She said "Don't get divorced. " And then spoke about having to forgive certain behaviors. Speaks volumes, IMHO.

Substance abuse, ego, rejection, emotional abuse. And then we honor these people for a great song. Amazing how seductive music is.

Eric Clapton is one of those people who are infatuated with the idea of being in love, but they never truly reach the level of commitment and emotional depth to actually love someone.

I read Pattie's book "Wonderful Tonight" (it's a really good read if you're interested) and it was sad to read about how her divorce with George went down and how Eric treated her during their marriage. Marrying musicians and having beautiful songs written about you isn't what it's cracked up to be at all.

As a side note, Pattie seems like a really sweet lady. Love her.

The Yardbirds are so underrated. One of my favorite bands. The melancholy in ‘For Your Love’ is just perfection.

I never understood the concept of a man pursuing a woman and as soon as he gets her, he breaks her heart. I never, never, NEVER understood that. Great video, though.

Wow I never realized until watching this video how wrong things went for Patti. She finally marries Eric at the end of the 70s and then it didn't last as Clapton found another woman.
What a rock and roll soap opera. Gotta feel for her.
