  • Here's an interview from way back in 1998 with legendary musician and songwriter Delaney Bramlett. Best known of course as one half of the successful Delaney & Bonnie duo and his associations with some of rock and roll's royalty working with the likes of Eric Clapton, George Harrison, Duane Allman and Leon Russell just to name a few. Sadly Delaney passed away in 2008. Recorded for my radio program Retrospectives on Casey Radio in Melbourne, Australia.

    He taught George Harrison how to play slide guitar,
    and Eric Clapton how to sing.

    Him and Bonnie in my honest opinion need to be in the Hall of Fame.

      kursed parasite they were a great live band. Not so sure about their writing though and maybe Hall of Fame put more weight on former.

    The "wife" he refers to was me CoCo, certainly not the woman in the final photo. The record that we were doing was called Home.
    After all these years, it makes me reflect on the abuse and how he would never mention my name to anyone.

      Hey sis, just saw this for the 1st time. Have listened to you & Bobby everyday for 1 1/2 yrs, love yall so much. Was just thinking of why He never mentioned you, and here you are....so sorry. I knew it was you cause he mentioned the sax & flute! Well, he sounds like a homeboy from my Mississippi, but not the abuse, it is shameful. But, praise the Lord, then came Bobby, yall both did well! Yall seem like old friends to all of us, because that's your hearts. Lord bless you and your home, Mrs Coco, you sure deserve peace and on all the new music!! Yall are loved and appreciated for sure. ✌😎

    At 22:20 Delaney talks about this bass-player that "can play anything but he can't think of his name." That about says it all for Delaney Bramlett.

    Every time I watch a YT video about Delaney and Bonnie and even other band members someone brings up Bobby Whitlock, and always about something Bobbie says against D&B. This is an interview of Delaney, may he rest in peace. Indeed, Bobbie was crucial to their sound and went on to be essential to other greats. But his disdain is like a cancer that many people feel the need to spread.

      I saw that interview. Gave me a really sucky impression of Delaney and Bonnie. The movie, Vanishing Point was when I first learned of them. That was in the early '90s. Prior to that, I would have heard of them had they produced a hit song on their own. Just didn't happen.
