Till the Last Note....

STATEMENT FROM BONNIE BRAMLETT ON THE PASSING OF DELANEY BRAMLETT NASHVILLE, TN – Singer/songwriter Bonnie Bramlett has issued the following statement about the passing of her former husband and musical partner, Delaney Bramlett, who died at age 69 on December 27 in Los Angeles as a result of complications from gall-bladder surgery: “I’m so going to miss him; as Delaney wrote in his song: ‘It’s hard to say good-bye.’ All I can hope is that I’ll see him in the light.”  
Bonnie met Delaney after moving to Los Angeles in 1967, and they married seven days later. They formed Delaney & Bonnie & Friends, the first real rock ‘n’ roll traveling road show, whose players at one time or another included George Harrison, John Lennon, Eric Clapton, Duane Allman, Gram Parsons, Leon Russell, Dave Mason and Rita Coolidge, among many others. The duo released five critically-acclaime d albums, beginning with Home on Stax Records, before recording for other labels. Hit singles such as “Soul Shake,” “Never Ending Song of Love” and “Only You Know & I Know” kept them on the charts. During this time, Bonnie also co-wrote with Leon Russell the Grammy-nominated song, “Superstar,” which was released as a Delaney and Bonnie single by Atlantic Records in 1969 and later a major hit for The Carpenters. The duo broke up personally and professionally in 1973.

I held him and he held on up until the last breath with which
he went in peace to the light and on into eternity.

Thank you all for the time, prayers, sweet energy, deep love, and
amazing support which helped hold us up throughout the last 7 hard
months.

IT WILL NEVER BE FORGOTTEN.

Love & blessing to you all,

Susan Lanier-Bramlett
