Dead

[Jim Garrett]

December 27th is the anniversary (2008) of the death of Delaney Bramlett of Delaney Bonnie and Friends. He was probably the catalyst for the beginning of the super groups and decidedly helped launch Eric Clapton's solo career. The album, "Delaney, Bonnie & Friends, On Tour with Eric Clapton" was packed with some of the most notable or up and coming musicians of that era. Besides Bobby Keys, it featured every member of Derek and the Dominoes with the exception of Duane Allman. Also included were Rita Coolidge and Dave Mason.
