The married couple and musical duo Delaney &
Bonnie ignited critics, fans and famous musical
colleagues to veritable bursts of exultation. Mick
Jagger of the Rolling Stones talked
matter-of-factly of ?convincing white gospel
song?, while Eric Clapton regarded the duo as the
?best pop band in the world?. Clapton?s enthusiasm
went so far that he invited the pair to accompany
him on a peaceful tour of Europe and was booed by
German fans because he stood in the background as
a mere accompanist and did not play any solos.
The master of the guitar may have had good reasons
for staying out of the limelight, if one is to
believe the Chicago Daily News, who declared that
Delaney & Bonnie were better than Aretha Franklin
and Ray Charles together.
Indeed the combined voices in the arrangements are
so closely knit that there is not a millimetre of
space between the singer and backing. In 'Hard
Luck And Troubles', a dry cantankerous groove, the
vocals cling to a sinewy bass line, criss-crossed
by short chords on the organ. Gospel is
celebrated spiritually, yet not too much so, in a
rocking, rhythmic and dense interplay between the
soloist and chorus. And what is more: the great
ballad, hovering above a vibrating carpet of sound
on the organ ('The Love Of My Man') and crisp,
firm winds ('Alone Together') are included in this
exquisite collection of great and even great
songs.
This Speakers Corner LP was remastered using pure
analogue components only, from the master tapes
through to the cutting head. All royalties and
mechanical rights have been paid.
