DELANEY BRAMLETT – Mobius Strip – (Columbia) – 1973
I probably shouldn’t like Delaney Bramlett as much as I do. I don’t like white blues much (well, unless it is bastardised or taken on a flying carpet somewhere). The “faithful” stuff, when white, I find a little artificial. I … Continue reading
DELANEY BRAMLETT – Some Things Coming – (Columbia) – 1972
White blues I find quite boring. Now, I'm not talking about those who take blues somewhere else of mix it up. I'm not talking about Elvis, the Rolling Stones, Paul Butterfield blues band, Blues Projections, George Thorogood, or even The … Continue reading
JOHN RANDOLPH MARR – John Randolph Marr – (Warner Brothers) – 1970

DELANEY & BONNIE – To Bonnie from Delaney – (Atco) – 1970
I have a couple of Delaney & Bonnie albums. If you like southern blue eyed soul and rock you will have them in your collection. And I like southern blue eyed soul and rock … There are worries though … … Continue reading
THOMAS JEFFERSON KAYE – Thomas Jefferson Kaye – (Dunhill) – 1973
Kaye was one of those music people you come across who was around music and the music business for practically his whole life (here some 40 years) without ever becoming a household name, or even a well known name today … Continue reading
