The Layla Sessions: 20th Anniversary Edition (or The Layla Sessions) is an anniversary edition reissue of the Layla and Other Assorted Love Songs album by Derek and the Dominos, who disbanded in 1971. The album contains remixed material from its original album, unused alternate/incomplete masters of the original songs and studio jamming, all divided on three disks. Unlike the original album, this album has received fairly low review scores from critics.
