Product Details

Delaney & Bonnie Bramlett were the real connective tissue of the early 1970s rock and soul underground, the couple whose Tulsa-rooted sound drew Eric Clapton, Leon Russell, and Duane Allman into their orbit before those names meant what they mean now. *To Bonnie From Delaney* captures Delaney at his most devotional, leaning hard into the Southern gospel and Memphis soul traditions that made their live shows feel like tent revivals to anyone lucky enough to witness them.

The married couple and musical duo Delaney & Bonnie ignited critics, fans and famous musical colleagues to veritable bursts of exultation. Indeed the combined voices in the arrangements are so closely knit that there is not a millimeter of space between the singer and backing. In "Hard Luck And Troubles", a dry cantankerous groove, the vocals cling to a sinewy bass line, criss-crossed by short chords on the organ. Gospel is celebrated spiritually, yet not too much so, in a rocking, rhythmic and dense interplay between the soloist and chorus. And what is more: the great ballad, hovering above a vibrating carpet of sound on the organ ("The Love Of My Man") and crisp, firm winds ("Alone Together") are included in this exquisite collection of great and even great songs.
