George's first wife Patti Boyd fell deeply in love with Eric Clapton, and they began having a lurid affair in the late 60's. George was unaware, and continued to invite Clapton to appear on his recordings and concerts.
Clapton and Patti had code names for each other, and her code name was "Layla." Therefore, "Layla, and Other Assorted Love Songs," by Clapton's band Derek and the Dominos was penned for Patti Harrison.
