Delaney & Bonnie & Friends
Motel Shot
Run Out Groove LP# 16
a limited and numbered edition 2 LP set on 180g vinyl
with deluxe gatefold packaging.
Though they never achieved the popular success enjoyed by
some of their peers, Delaney & Bonnie Bramlett spearheaded the
roots-rock revolution of the late ‘60s and early ‘70s along with
The Allman Brothers and The Band, turning away from the exoticism
of psychedelia towards music “rooted” in blues, country, and soul.
Witness the fact that the “And Friends” that played with the pair
included Eric Clapton, George Harrison, Leon Russell, Dave Mason
and Bobby Whitlock….out of Delaney and Bonnie’s various aggregations
arose Derek and the Dominoes and Joe Cocker’s band for the
legendary Mad Dogs and Englishmen tour. And for Motel Shot, the
duo’s fourth studio album and their third for Atco/Atlantic, the circle
of “friends” included Cocker, Whitlock, and Mason, plus appearances
by Duane Allman, Gram Parsons, and John Hartford among others!
But for the most part, this is a largely acoustic, charmingly informal
affair dipped in gospel and dominated by the Bramletts and Whitlock;
the Motel Shot title refers to informal, after hours jam sessions
on the road. But there’s a whole lot more to the story (and to this release!).
The project began not in a hotel room but in the living room of engineer
Bruce Botnick, with November 1970 sessions as a prospective
release for Elektra Records. But, after Delaney had a falling out
with label head Jac Holzman, the project moved to Atco, who put the
“band” into a proper studio to re-record much of the material.
Those later sessions comprise the original album, which has
heretofore only appeared briefly on CD in Japan; but, after hours
of tape research, co-producers Bill Inglot and Pat Thomas uncovered
the original “living room” sessions that yielded the eight unreleased
tracks on this Expanded Edition LP release.
Remastered by Inglot, with an essay by Thomas that includes
exclusive (and extremely candid) quotes from Bonnie Bramlett,
Bobby Whitlock, Bruce Botnick, and Jac Holzman, Motel Shot
finally is presented here the way it was originally conceived, and
takes its rightful place as one of the great albums of the
classic era of the roots rock movement.
