On his way back to England he gave one each to George Harrison, Steve Winwood and Pete Townshend, keeping the remaining three for himself. After playing each one, he decided to build one guitar out of the best parts of each Stratocaster, Blackie was created, and quickly become Clapton's favourite stage guitar until its retirement in 1985.

| [Video] Eric Clapton en "Layla" | | 2007-10-08 19:24:32 | |
Hace 37 años Patti Boyd, era una bellísima modelo esposa del ex beatle George Harrison. Por entonces, el rockero Eric Clapton al conocerla , se queda prendado de su belleza y le compone una canción llamada "Layla" que a la larga se convierte en una de las mejores del músico y de la historia del rocanrol.La música tiene sus extrañas formas de generar amores. Patti Boyd, a sus 63 años, confiesa ahora que ya había sido amante de John Lennon y Mick Jagger por esos años -además de musa inspiradora de otras canciones como Something- pero que tras "Layla" su atención como mujer se dirige a Clapton con quien se casaría años después.Han transcurrido 37 años de esta historia de musas, amor y rocanrol. Clapton está celebrando los 37 años de "Layla" con una antología que recoge sus mejores éxitos titulada Complete Calpton.Un agradecimiento mas que especial a POSPOST: Esta noticia la he visto en Emol y El mundo, con el nombre de Patty Boyd cambiado (ponen Patty Boy) y la fecha equivocada, pues señalan que la canción "Layla", apenas tiene 25 años de compuesta.
