In December 1969, Delaney & Bonnie & Friends embarked on a tour of England that resulted in the live album, “Delaney & Bonnie & Friends on Tour with Eric Clapton.” Now, forty years after its initial release, Rhino Handmade will issue a four disc 52-track deluxe edition in July. The set will feature more than three hours of unreleased music from Delaney and Bonnie Bramlett and their “friends.” Besides the Bramletts, the band included guitarists Eric Clapton and Dave Mason, bassist Carl Radle, drummer Jim Gordon, organist Bobby Whitlock, Jim Price and Bobby Keys on horns, percussionist Tex Johnson, and vocalist Rita Coolidge and a mysterious friend named Mysterioso (George Harrison).
Packed inside the miniature mock road case will be the band’s complete 1969 Royal Albert Hall performance, a composite from Bristol’s Colston Hall, and both the early and late shows from the tour’s final date at Fairfield Halls in Croydon. (Mysterioso only joined the band for the two shows at Fairfield Halls). This release also features tracks not included on the original album like “I Don’t Know Why,” “My Baby Specializes,” “Everybody Loves A Winner,” “Get Ourselves Together,” “Will The Circle Be Unbroken,” a cover of Spencer Davis Group’s “Gimme Some Lovin’”; and finally, the instrumental “Pigmy.” Deluxe liner notes will also be included.
