Hi Ray,
They did a lot of that. There was a time Rod and George in the late 
60's-early 70's they had a band together called Bacon Fat, that recorded on 
the long defunct Blue Horizon label out of the UK, plus on an ABC/Bluesway 
release by George Smith in the late 60's called "....Of the Blues," (where 
Rod was called Lightnin' Rod on it), and also on the last recording session 
George did before he passed away on Rod's own label (and it was the first 
release for the label) called Murray Bros, and was called "Boogie 'N' With 
George," of which most of that LP has been reissued on the Blind Pig CD 
called "Now You Can Talk About Me," so there's quite a bit of them together 
out there.
