Title: Blues From Laurel Canyon Artist: John Mayall Label: Proper Records Uk Product Type: VINYL LP UPC: 805520240352 Genre: Blues Release Date: 2023-07-07 Number of Discs: 1 Additional Details: UNITED KINGDOM - IMPORT
Following the breakup of The Bluesbreakers in 1968, Mayall took a three week break in LA, and it proved an eye- opener for him. As a result, Blues From Laurel Canyon was a concept album of sorts, a view of a Brit Abroad at a time when it wasn't de rigueur to travel. 2401 especially is an incredible confection - acknowledging Cream, foreseeing Led Zeppelin; Mick Taylor's slide guitar would soon be heard in the Rolling Stones. For Tomorrow is a nine- minute blues- rock tour de force. This re- issue faithfully replicates the original 1968 Decca Records UK stereo release with gatefold sleeve and is pressed onto high quality 180g vinyl.
