Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })Released in 1971, Motel Shot is the fifth album recorded by soul singers Delaney and Bonnie Bramlett. Designed to recreate for listeners an informal jam session of the sort touring musicians would engage in to unwind, similarly to the oft-bootlegged Million Dollar Quartet sessions. Motel Shot features high-profile guests - Delaney & Bonnie and Friends had a LOT of friends in the pop community - playing acoustic takes, mostly of old standards. Seven of the twelve tracks are covers and four of those are religious hymns. The album's concept prefigured MTV Unplugged by nearly two decades, serving as the Trope Maker for the Unplugged Version.

Rearrange the Song: "Come On In My Kitchen", originally a one-chord blues, is played here with the "Key To The Highway" progression. Apparently, Three Chords and the Truth was too elaborate for Robert Johnson.

Everything Is an Instrument: To contribute to the "motel room jam" feel, the backing band used empty suitcases for percussion.
