"Layla" was written by Eric Clapton and Jim Gordon for their band Derek and the Dominos. It appeared as the thirteenth track on their sole studio album, Layla and Other Assorted Love Songs, released in 1970. The song's contrasting musical sections were composed by Clapton and Gordon separately. The piano portion has been subject to dispute regarding its proper attribution, with some crediting Rita Coolidge, who was Gordon's girlfriend at the time.
