John Mayall & the Bluesbreakers featuring ERIC CLAPTON From The internet:
John Mayall & the Bluesbreakers was an English blues rock band, led by singer, songwriter, and multi-instrumentalist John Mayall, OBE. (WHY NOT A CBE LIKE PROTEGE ERIC?) While never producing a radio-friendly hit on their own, the Bluesbreakers' greatest legacy is as an incubator for British rock and blues musicians. Many of the best known bands to come out of Britain in the 1960s and 1970s had members that came through the Bluesbreakers at one time, forming the foundation of British blues music that still appears heavily in classic rock radio. The album Blues Breakers with Eric Clapton was released in July; it reached the Top Ten in the UK. Among those with a tenure in the Bluesbreakers are Eric Clapton and Jack Bruce (later of Cream), Peter Green, Mick Fleetwood, and John McVie (who would form Fleetwood Mac), Mick Taylor (the Rolling Stones), Aynsley Dunbar (Frank Zappa and The Mothers of Invention), and numerous other musicians.
This copies condition as follows: Front cover has lots of ringwear and cover bending Both front and back cover has a worn and discoloured opening edge and similar bending to the front .Also has someone's name written on the top left edge...basically grubby but rare...Disc condition as follows: surface has lots of stylus marks and trails basically played and loved a lot...Label has owner's name written on it...obviously wanted to make sure she 'got it back' after a party or something and why not it's a brilliant album and introduced me and millions of others to the 'British Blues' Eric Clapton being hailed as a guitar God and sometimes simply as 'God' as in the epithet 'Clapton Is God'...then Peter Green arrived on the scene...to topple him?...Anyway I digress basically both sides are well played ...with lots of marks but still plays! with maybe a pop or two here and there...This album is sought after in any condition Good Luck...
