I think collaborative albums THESE days (BB King/Clapton; JJ Cale/Clapton, etc) would probably work much better than the collaborative albums from the late '60s/early '70s, due to the substance abuse factor. Bloomfield was a wreck during those days (both the Super Session with Al Kooper & the aforementioned Triumverate sessions.
