 | | Description: | John Mayall stammte aus Macclesfield, Cheshire, und wuchs in Cheadle Hulme auf. Er hatte sich bereits einen Namen in der Bluesszene von Manchester gemacht, bevor er 1963 auf Drängen von Alexis Korner nach London zog.
Nach der Auflösung der Bluesbreakers im Jahr 1968 nahm Mayall eine dreiwöchige Auszeit in LA, die ihm die Augen öffnete.
So war Blues From Laurel Canyon eine Art Konzeptalbum, ein Blick auf einen Briten im Ausland zu einer Zeit, als Reisen noch nicht zum guten Ton gehörte. Vor allem 2401 ist ein unglaubliches Meisterwerk - eine Hommage an Cream und eine Vorwegnahme von Led Zeppelin; Mick Taylors Slide-Gitarre sollte bald bei den Rolling Stones zu hören sein. For Tomorrow ist eine neunminütige Blues-Rock-Tour de Force, die die Original-Stereo-Veröffentlichung von Decca Records aus dem Jahr 1968 originalgetreu nachbildet und auf hochwertigem 180g-Vinyl gepresst ist. - ..CANYON // INCLUDES 2 BONUS TRACKSJohn Mayall's Bluesbreakers classic album from 1968 has been digitally remastered and now boasts an extra two bonus tracks including the single version of '2401' and the song 'Wish You Were Here' only previously available on the Decca compilation, Primal Solos.
