George Harrison - (1,2,5,6)
Eric Clapton - (3,4,7,8)
Notes -
Uncertain as to the correct time placement of this bootleg LP.
The Clapton tracks are indicative of 1974.
The Harrison tracks (1,2) may be from the Concert For Bangla Desh.
However tracks (5,6) are clearly from a later time. - JCH

Recordings supposedly done at Leon Russell's home studio,

I believe the female voice in these sessions belong to Mary

Pete Townshend and Keith Moon of The Who join Eric's band for the rousing encore, performing not only 'Layla' but a Who blues standard 'Baby Don't You Do It'.

Wrong date on CD; says January 28, 1974.
Also wrong songwriting credits listed.
Oil Well is a budget bootleg label that primarily boots other bootleg labels.
This CD is a copy of Yellow Dog's
THE UNSURPASSED ERIC CLAPTON VOL. 2
Oil Well is (often) quite loose with the accuracy of it's information; however the music quality is as good as their source.

Notes:
The sound quality is not as bad as the rating would suggest.
The recording of the instruments is not bad, but the
vocals are faint. The songs are more instrumental than vocal
in many cases and the instruments are quite well
recorded, so the weakness is easily overcome. (R.B.)

Notes -
The US gatefold LP comes with color record sleeve with separate personnel information for each track and a separate lyric sheet with a black & white photo of George Harrison (same as back LP cover).
Most interesting is 'Bye, Bye Love' (track 4) where George has both Eric Clapton and Pattie (his ex-wife) supplying backing vocals on an aptly named song about lost love.
