Delaney & Bonnie are the common element to Dave Mason and Eric Clapton/Derek & the Dominos.
Odd rock trivia-Who knew?
Wandering thru the garage band thread inspired a little Wikipedia session that revealed these two quirky bits of trivia:
The original "second guitar" to Eric Clapton in Derek and the Dominos was not Duane Allman. It was Dave Mason. Mason is a very capable player, but... Somehow, it's hard for me to imagine what that band would have sounded like without the switch to DA.
And
Ed King, of Lynyrd Skynyrd, was a founding member of Strawberry Alarm Clock (Incense and Peppermints). Talk about a strange stylistic shift.
