Hard to believe this was done forty years ago. I played trumpet on this and with D&B on the road for a couple of years. The band at this time was Kenny Gradney, Sam Clayton, Chuck Morgan(drums), Joe Joehanson(guitar), Larry Savoie (trombone), Jerry Jummonville(sax), Darrell Leonard(trumpet). What a time we had.
Thanks for the info. I figured Kenny was in there but didn't recognize the horn section and others. Did you do the Canadian train tour? I know Kenny was on that
When I first heard Delaney and Bonnie back in the '60s, I totally flipped out. I've loved them and their music to this very day. God puts his finger on certain very special people and endows them with extraordinary talent like nobody else, and they were definitely in that category.
I grew up nearby the duo in Southern calif. in the 60s' -early 70s'...my buddys' sister married Dave Mason...didn't get to meet them until 1992 as a small FM station out of Marysville, Calif., KRFD. They were being interviewed and i was there by invite of the D.J., Andy Emrit [R.I.P.}. What a righteous and beautiful couple they were. May God rest Delaney's soul...and I love you, Bonnie
Look for an album called Lady's Choice. It was Bonnie's best and most amazing solo album but half of it was duets that she did with some great guy singers. Gregg Allman, Jimmy Hall, Bobby Whitlock, Dobie Grey and Mickey Thomas. It's one of my desert island favorites.
I knew Bonnie from early 60s when she played a club on Gaslight Square in St. Louis. She was only 17 and had to get a special OK from the city. Gaslight was a blast and she was a blaster. Last time I saw her was in the 70s at Venice Beach - she was doing a backyard set on Speedway Ave. Loved that girl, yes I did.
Yes, she said she blacked up for those shows but got chased out of the venue when the audience realised what was happening. Too bad, I bet she was a great Ikette.
There's a video here of her singing with Stephen Stills in a concert in 1979 in New Jersey. ua-cam.com/video/_LlppqoLZis/v-deo.html&ab_channel=CrosbyStillsNashonMV
Born in '75 I have huge nostalgia, you can even call it a fetish, for music of this era and Im blown away when I discover a new band like this one just when Ive thought ive heard them all. Shwing!
Bonnie was an amazing blues singer. Sometimes I wish I could hear more of her in some of their songs. She was a great dancer too. Glad she is still around. They were good together musically, not so much in their married life. Love listening to them.
Yes, Bonnie was so great. The original name of the band was actually Bonnie & Delaney and group started with those two plus Bobby Whitlock on acoustic guitar - just a trio. When they expanded, Whitlock went to keys, Carl Radle came in on bass and Jimmy Karstein on drums. Record company interest was on Bonnie. But Delaney, being the egotistical megalomaniac that he was (according to all accounts) change it...and also took over the bulk of the singing. He many have been responsible for making the band happen, but ultimately he was at fault for destroying it.
One of the top female vocalists ever. She did for Delany what Joplin did for Big Brother & the holding company. Made them bigger than they would have been otherwise. Unless they moved on to other people and got luckier.
That's K.G. from Little Feat on the bass, in case anyone's interested. When he joined Little Feat, the first thing he did was to convince them to hire Sam Clayton too. Little Feat weren't looking for a conga player, but Sam was so great, how could they say no? And Bonnie looks great here, not like when she was wearing the big round sunglasses and super curly wig during the Eric Clapton period.
The sunglasses? Maybe to cover black eyes? By numerous accounts including her own Delaney gave her a tough time. Rita Coolidge has a similar incident with Jim Gordon after they left D&B for Joe Cocker's Mad Dogs & Englishmen.

I remember Jay York. Worked Jay and Delaney on country stuff during the 70s. Delaney played an old National metal body guitar doing some lead overlays with a Coricidin bottle on his finger. Jay used to play congas with Delaney and Bonnie. Bekka is definitely "their" kid and has the talent of both plus more.
Most underappreciated artists of their era. Their star burned bright and died early but they had a titanic influence artists far and wide. Clapton even said his singing voice is the closest approximation he could manage to Delaney's. Personal issues derailed what should have been a legendary career. Among those who know, their names are always whispered as major influences of the souly'blusey'rock'ish sound we've seen from many artists. Too bad the R&RHOF is political and not merit based.
I seen them and you maybe in 1971 or 72 at the Open Air Celebration in St. Paul Mn. at Midway stadium. With The Band, Paul Butterfield and a few more. If this was you I rember it like it was yesterday. Thank you so much.
Give a listen to Delaney& Bonnie with Duane and Greg Allman, with King Curtis doing Only You Know and I Know A&R Radio live 1971. At the time of this recording Eric, Bobby, Jim, and Carl were touring Europe as Derek and the Dominos. The rest of the Friends were playing Madison Square Garden, Concert for Bangladesh...George Harrison, Leon Russell.
I actually used to cut Bonnie's brothers hair. He has since passed. His name was Mike Nizinski. I got to shake her hand when I ran into her at our local Walmart some years ago. She was with a friend of mine who was also a friend of her brother. Both men are now passed. Life is short. Bonnie has always had a fantastic voice! Hope she is well and thriving!
@zbestwun2001 - Thank you for that. There seems to be some confusion with who wrote what on a number of tunes. I read once that - for whatever reason (possibly income taxes on royalties) - Delaney gave credit to Bonnie when it was actually him who wrote the tune. In the booklet for the D&B 'Deluxe - On Tour' box set Bonnie notes that her contribution to one of Eric Clapton's major hits was very minor, but he was generous (and grateful) enough to give her a co-credit.
Bonny recently revealed life on the road with Delaney was miserable. They were addicted and he beat her. She said they were the Worst 4 years of her life.
@zbestwun2001 - Okay, so outstanding previous contracts on Delaney's part is what I read in what you say here, which fits with my general perspective. Regardless of the realities and the behind-the-scenes scenarios, I still love the music the duo put out (I was listening to 'To Bonnie from Delaney' yesterday) and - thanks to the likes of Derek Trucks & Susan Tedeschi having recently discovered them (per comments on 2010 Clapton 'Crossroads' DVD) - hopefully that music will be find new fans.
Bobby doesn't lie. His integrity is unimpeachable. He's not the only person to point out that Delaney liked to beat on Bonnie or any of his numerous personality quirks. They in no way denigrate his music. If every artist of any medium were held to my personal standards of behavior and ethics before I enjoyed their art, I'd have virtually nothing to look at or listen to. An artist and his work need to be kept seperate in my opinion. They aren't saints and don't want to be put on a pedestal.
I heard Bonnie in an interview say that she beat on him just as much. She was quick to not blame Delaney for all their marital problems. I believe drugs and alcohol were involved as well...
@neetrab - No, Bonnie sang a number of them as well. She's a wicked singer... very r&b/gospel, and much better than Delaney, though they made a great team, as you see here (she's making him look and sound even better... ). Check out 'That's What My Man is For' (from 'Delaney & Bonnie Live On Tour - with Eric Clapton') as a good example of Bonnie doing here thing. Her version of 'Superstar' ('Groupie') is also good (she wrote it w/Leon Russell) but I prefer her doing the more soulful stuff.
@MrCherryJuice FYI---Delaney and Leon really wrote that song, check Delaney's BMI catalog. Bonnie was given credit for it but according to Leon she wasn't even in the room when that song was written.
Leon never said that! Bobby Whitlock had that in his book. The lyrics seem more like something a woman would write and the melody is so obviously Leon.
11 years later I see this! Yes, you are correct. Apparently Leon and Delaney walked into a room where Rita Coolidge was telling Bonnie of a dream she had. Upon hearing about Rita's dream the two women were ushered out of the room and Leon and Delaney turned the dream into a tune.
@@kw19193 Keltner had left by the time Clapton joined. Or at least he was gone by the time the band toured the UK and recorded the 'On Tour...' album. When assembling Derek & the Dominos, EC and Whitlock wanted Keltner but he was touring with Gabor Szabo. George Harrison was about to record 'All Things Must Pass' and Carl Radle (who was invited to join EC's new band), Bobby Keys and Jim Price were in town. As was Jim Gordon, so in lieu of Keltner, it was he who got the EC gig. Harrison asked EC and BW if their new band could be the rhythm section of 'All Things Must Pass'...and things took off from there.
@MrCherryJuice That's very true and having worked with Delaney up until he passed in '08 I do know the truth. Short of airing dirty family laundry, suffice it to say that Bonnie wrote nearly nothing that her names appears on in her catalog during the D&B years. It was because of other contractual obligations that Delaney had that she was given that credit. Although she could sing her ass off, (Bekka is a better singer and has Delaney's writing gene), Bonnie was not a songwriter then.
I don't know much about this group... but I have seen bonnie on rosanne. I've seen maybe 3 vids of D&B, and I haven't seen bonnie sing a SOLO part yet. Did Delaney sing all the songs???
Announcer is Kin Vassey of Kenny Rogers & First Edition. The band had a weekly show from Toronto named 'Rolling On the River', with this clip being one of two from that episode. The other was 'Well, Well (Getting to Know You So Well)'. Both tunes were from the band's final album, 'Together'.
Yes, originally the band was named Bonnie & Delaney...but Delaney reversed the name and dominated the singing, as Bonnie was the original star of the show and the one the record companies were interested in.
Hard to believe this was done forty years ago. I played trumpet on this and with D&B on the road for a couple of years.

bugle47 This must've been around 70-71? Most of the band had left for Derek and The Dominos? Would love to hear a road story!
Interesting. From one, many...Even Little Feat
Thanks for the info. I figured Kenny was in there but didn't recognize the horn section and others. Did you do the Canadian train tour? I know Kenny was on that

Bonnie was an amazing blues singer. Sometimes I wish I could hear more of her in some of their songs. She was a great dancer too. Glad she is still around. They were good together musically, not so much in their married life. Love listening to them.
And Bekka, their daughter is still singing - even spent some time with Fleetwood Mac.
