    Delbert McClinton and Austin City Limits, are the most enduring and wonderful piece of American music, and there's lots of those. Not so much now, but then. An era now gone, but not forgotten, for sure. Immortalized, thank you internet.

    If he doesn't get in the R&R Hall of Fame they need to burn the S.O.B.. down because there is no justice.

      I first saw Delbert at the Sundown West in Ruston, Louisiana while attending LA Tech U. in the mid-70's. They would turn the pool tables on their sides and lean 'em up against the wall. Great music and great times. We have seen him all over the south in the past 40 years. Still dig the music.

He was always fun to watch, because he was a very smooth drummer, but had great powerful drum fills, and a great hi-hat technique. He remains one of my all time favorite funky drummers!

    I run listening to Delbert. His music always picks me up and keeps the feet moving.

      I do the same, put Delbert on when I need a lift.

    Great stuff from Ammon's friend. Makes this 75 year old want to dance!

    Delbert McClinton played at the Tom Landry Middle School Football field one time.... My Dad and Mom told me about him.

    Got to go back stage at a casino in Tunica, Ms a few years back. He signed my CD. Real humble guy.

    Absolutely no holes in this band. This is how it's done, kids.

    The drummer is Harrell Bosarge. He plays a lot around new orleans and the MS gulf coast now.

      Thank you for the information of who the drummer is. Heavy and groovy style. :-)

    First band I played bass in covered this song... I still love it (and that was a looooong time ago!).
