Overview
John Mayall's 1971 double album gets a serious sonic restoration here. This is the ultimate benchmark for British blues-rock collaborations. Mayall gathered the absolute best players from his legendary Bluesbreakers eras—including Eric Clapton, Mick Taylor, and Harvey Mandel—to lay down these tracks. This specific 2-CD set features the crucial 1988 revisions where Mayall painstakingly rescued the original 8-track tapes, stripped away bloated overdubs, and remixed the songs to sound exactly how he always intended. It is raw, focused, and highlights incredible guitar work. This particular copy features a signature on the front cover booklet, making it a stellar addition for serious collectors of historic rock history.
Interesting Facts
- The original sessions took place in both London and Los Angeles between November 15 and 25, 1970.
- Many of the musicians were touring world wide or hard to track down, so Mayall had to cart master tapes across the Atlantic ocean to get everyone recorded.
- In 1988, Mayall discovered some great instrumental solos were accidentally left out of the original 1971 mix, which he finally restored in these versions.
- The album features three distinct legendary guitarists who all played in John Mayall & the Bluesbreakers at different times.

Overview (Áttekintés)
John Mayall 1971-es dupla albuma komoly hangzásbeli restauráláson esik át. Ez a brit blues-rock együttműködések legmagasabb színvonala. Mayall a legendás Bluesbreakers korszak legjobb játékosait gyűjtötte össze – köztük Eric Claptont, Mick Taylort és Harvey Mandelt –, hogy rögzítse ezeket a számokat. Ez a konkrét 2 CD-s kiadás tartalmazza az 1988-as átdolgozások kulcsfontosságú részét, ahol Mayall aprólékosan megmentette az eredeti 8 sávos szalagokat, eltávolította a túlzó rájátszásokat, és újrakeverte a dalokat, hogy pontosan úgy szóljanak, ahogyan mindig is szerette volna. Nyers, fókuszált és hihetetlen gitárjátékot emel ki. Ezen a példányon egy aláírás található a borítófüzeten, így kiváló kiegészítő a történelmi rocktörténelem komoly gyűjtői számára.
Interesting Facts (Érdekességek)
- Az eredeti felvételek Londonban és Los Angelesben készültek 1970 novemberében.
- Mivel a zenészek épp a világ körül turnéztak, Mayallnak az Atlanti-óceánon keresztül kellett szállítania a mesterszalagokat a rögzítéshez.
- A borítón látható dedikálás egyedivé teszi ezt a példányt.
