I always wish Derek and the Dominos had made more than one studio album. Layla and Other Assorted Love Songs is such a fantastic album. Still surprises me that it was considered a failure at the time. Though Rolling Stone now has the album on it's best albums list at #115.
Some of my favorite songs off the album:

I always enjoyed how this one was just a impromptu jam with Clapton and Duane Allman. That's why when it starts, the fade-in is them already playing.
