The husband and wife tag team of Delaney and Bonnie hit that cusp where Eric Clapton and the entire ’70s roadshow jam scene began, growling and grinding along similar lines to Sticky Fingers-era Stones. This was, their last album together (they divorced in ’72), but it retains a frisson thanks to Clapton and Dave Mason’s guitar work on “Only You And I Know” and the early “Groupie”?or “Superstar” for Leon Russell (or Carpenters) fans. Pass the chicken and listen, y’all.
