In 1970, Eric Clapton released a song with his group Derek & the Dominos called "Keep On Growing," where he sang about finding fertile ground for love. In his gentle solo track "Let It Grow," he stays with the garden theme as a metaphor for love, singing, "Plant your love and let it grow."
Clapton played the dobro on this track. A dobro is a type of acoustic guitar with a raised bridge and resonator cone which produces a moaning sound.
Yvonne Elliman sang backup. Before joining Clapton's band in 1974, she played Mary Magdalene in Jesus Christ, Superstar. She had a disco hit in 1978 with "If I Can't Have You."
