Hi Jerry,
Love this tune, Bonnie and your solo! What's the story behind this performance?
Bonnie was always a harp fan. We toured together for a while when I was with Muddy. In 1978 we were on a bill together at the Montreaux Jazz Festval in Switzerland and she called me out of the wings to play with her on this song.
Jerry, I just wanted to ask if you are familiar with a drummer by the name of Russ Kammerer? He plays now with a friend of mine, Brian Lee (Brian Lee and the Orbiters), but has played professionally for a long time and with many musicians. He mentioned (I think) playing with Bonnie Raitt in the 70s - so I wondered if you ran into him, or maybe played with him? Rich
I could have mis-heard him, too. He was telling a story about the lead singer in the band he was with getting him out of trouble with the police after a Canadian border crossing issue. Certainly could have been a different female vocalist, but was definitely someone with a recognizable name.
man that is some serious blowing.......I love how jerry's solo has that time feel shift thing. I first recognised that from his playing with Muddy and use that all the time time. I love Bonnie's sound on the guitar as well
