 Rating:  - "I'm willing to follow him, Anyone don't like that, well, Forget them!" --Bonnie Bramlett I like to look at this album as a rocketing testament to enduring love and a big in-your-face to the aggressive women's movement and sexual revolution of the time. When Bonnie Bramlett belts out that line from "My Baby Specializes," you know she's doing what she truly wants the most, and that's loving her man. She doesn't give a hoot what anyone else says as long as they're together. And Delaney loves her just as much.

Sounding like a white Otis Redding and Tina Turner (Bonnie was once an Ike-ette), and with Booker T. and the MGs backing them on most of the tracks, the mercurial couple rip through a set of heartfelt, gut-wrenching Southern soul, with some Rock and Roll Attitude. It's no wonder that after hearing this record, people like Eric Clapton and George Harrison were willing to drop what they were doing to be mere sidemen is Delaney & Bonnie's band. The sound is raw, the songs are great, and it is a great pleasure to listen to the singing of ... Read More: |
