John Mayall & the Bluesbreakers are a pioneering English blues band, led by singer, songwriter, and multi-instrumentalist John Mayall, OBE. Mayall used the band name between 1963 and ‘67 then dropped it for some fifteen years, but in 1982 a ‘Return of the Bluesbreakers’ was announced and it has been kept since then. The name has become generic without a clear distinction which recordings are to be credited just to the leader or to leader and his band. The Bluesbreakers have included luminaries such as:
* Eric Clapton (April–August 1965, November 1965–July 1966[1]) and Jack Bruce, who both left to form Cream,
* Peter Green, who had replaced Clapton, played until August 1967, when he departed with Mick Fleetwood and then also enticed Bluesbreaker John McVie a few weeks later to form Fleetwood Mac
* Mick Taylor (August 1967–July 1969) who later joined The Rolling Stones, and reunion tours in 1982–83 and 2004,
* Harvey Mandel, Walter Trout, Larry Taylor (later in Canned Heat),
* Don “Sugarcane” Harris, Randy Resnick, Aynsley Dunbar, Dick Heckstall-Smith, Andy Fraser (Free), Chris Mercer, Henry Lowther, Johnny Almond and Jon Mark (later of Mark-Almond).
The Bluesbreakers were formed in January 1963 and became an ever-evolving lineup of more than 100 different combinations of musicians performing under that name. Eric Clapton joined in 1965 just a few months after the release of their first album. Clapton brought the blues influences to the forefront of the group, as he had left The Yardbirds in order to play the blues.

Mayall es el mejor pero con mucha diferencia, vengo escuchando desde el año 72, se ha rodeado de los mejores músicos com Mick Taylor,Peter Green,Eric Clapton.Lo ví actuar personalmente en Murcia(España) en el año 87, y pienso volver a verlo y disfrutar de una agradable velada.

great blues. you might want to check out B.C. Williamson, who is a fictional blues artist with an endlessly complicated backstory, spanning over 60 years. and now he has a 22-track compilation album coming out. "The Greatest Blues Singer Who Never Lived."

Mayall was fortunate to have such great musicians backing him because he sucked.

"It really bothers me that Peter Green isn't noted in the biography. He's just under the category "most of fleetwood mac", which he interestingly enough pioneered. All Bull." Now all fixed thanks to a bit of copying and pasting from Wikipedia which is acceptable.

eblink, well you would expect that because Hard Road is harder to find. Only imports here in America, and presumably elsewhere.
