Delaney, Bonnie & Friends - Comin' Home



Another blast from the past. Delaney is playing the all-rosewood Telecaster that the Fender company had give George Harrison (and which he is seen playing in the Let it Be film), and which George then gave to Delaney. George is playing the Stratocaster he played in the Magical Mystery Tour film. Eric Clapton is playing a Les Paul through a Dual Showman, and as far as I know that's not in any film. The bassist, drummer, and organist went on to form Derek and the Dominoes with Clapton. Saxophonist Bobby Keys went on to become a sort of auxiliary member of the Rolling Stones. In short, the people in this video function as a dense node of late sixties-early seventies rock. It's also a pretty good song.

H/t twincityblues.
