Because he and his band sing and play real music and you can't be big these days playing real music and that really stinks. I saw Delbert last night in Cincinnati,8/11/18,and it was as good as I've ever seen them.
Delbert McClinton played the harmonica on the big hit "Hey Baby" by Bruce Chanel in the early 60s. He met the Beatles on tours in England with Bruce Chanel as the Beatles opened for them, and showed John Lennon some harmonica licks.
Ekston Gunn is correct. Delbert has set it out clearly . He did NOT teach John Lennon. They passed the harp back and forth and Delbert told him about straight harp and blues harp. Lennon was playing harp before he met Delbert. Delbert has better John Lennon stories than that though.
Don't know why Delbert isn't bigger than he is. One of the most versitile artists in our time!!!

Bruce ChaNNel
Saw him live at the Lone Star Cafe in the 80’s or ´90’s. He tore down the place.
Saw him with Muddy Waters in San Francisco...1978..what a Show!
Great version Love it !
The sound track is late by a couple of frames!
if you take the time to listen some delbert s early music you ll find that it tells you about your own life .
DANA ROBBINS ROCKS THAT SAX!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Is this song on any of Delberts albums
Gary Nichoolson on guitar as well
Clay is sure his Daddy's boy!! That's just Good riffs.
Listen to Sir Paul do this number.
Rockin band, good job by Delbert, but does the other harp player even know the song?
That's Delbert's son Clay, so yes he knows the song
On 2nd listen, I guess Clay knows the song. ;)
Delbert taught John Lennon to play the harmonica! He did a great job teaching Clay as well.
