Rocking showband document
Review written by John Fitzgerald, April 19th, 2005

It's no surprise that this album is thought of as a landmark album for Clapton's career and Delaney & Bonnie's high point but it's virtual refusal to give mercy on the rocking energy that pours out throughout this album oddly makes you not care that D & B are not really showing their versatilities on style (that they have done elsewhere on record) here as it's simply a great rocking time. There is the odd exception like Bonnie's vocal centerpiece, the strolling blues of "That's what my man is for" and this is the track where you can hear shades of Bekka's blues side best but both women are strong and individual enough to not have this come across as a straight-out blueprint for Bekka's vocals. Dave Mason is listed as "guitar" for this album and as Delaney is listed as "rhythm guitar" and Eric is listed for "lead guitar" duties, this makes it all the more difficult to know which songs Dave is on and which parts he may be playing. It's probably safe to assume that he would be playing something on the Bramlett's cover of his "Only you know and I know" which here is fiery enough with it's lean guitars but the horns really weaken the power in the track (though it does still rock harder than D&B's studio version of this track (which Mason also plays on which you may also wish to seek out). As for the rest, the popular Clapton co penned "Comin' home" is perhaps predictably a stand out shuffling rocker as is the Ike & Tina Turner styled fast pulse of "I don't want to discuss it" and the throbbing opening stomp of "Things get better" which well and truly wakes you up. "Poor Elijah - Tribute to Johnson (Medley)" is a well put together building mid tempo rouser and "Where there's a will there's a way" is another speedy rock song that lands inside an impressive groove you won't tire of and the closing "Little Richard medley" though the longest track here, won't seem it as it's likable breakneck pace throughout it's nearly six minutes won't bother you though one may think they would wish there to be more variety in the track overall. The speed stays from the opening "Tutti frutti" through "The girl can't help it". The quick pace remains for "Long tall Sally" and though things quiet down a little for "Jenny Jenny" the energizing keeps going...and going. Perhaps a D & B compilation would better show the Bramlett's mix of gospel, blues, country and rock as the studio tracks most likely show those directions they have taken more clearly through more traditional arrangements. Those elements are here though, they just don't show as much through the rocking power this album displays and while hearing it, you'll not really care you're missing out on such purities as the Ike & Tina showband style available for listen here is most pleasing.
