Speaking of Delaney & Bonnie I picked up an LP at a thrift store by Jimmy Hoff"I heard Somebody Needed a Guitar Player".A really good record,by a really good guitarist.The music is Jazz/Soul/Blues.It's on the Private Artists label of St. Louis.Google shows that he was the longtime guitarist for Bonnie Bramlett pre-Delaney.He now runs an ad agency.Well recorded and well played
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.
