R.I.P. John Mayall

Historically pivotal player and musician. 90 years old!

 

[Dave Merrill]

Oh man.
Another one down.
Listened to various bands of his a bit back in the day, and some great players went through.
Had a good run though, he was 90.

Many legendary players passed thru his band and on to stellar careers …amongst them Clapton, and most notably , Mick Taylor made some beautiful music with him before his stint with the Stones. His influence is underappreciated.

 

[Whistler]

Yep, sad news indeed. However, as already mentioned, passing at 90 is a fair crack of the whip.
I’ve always enjoyed this clip with Gary Moore as guest guitarist. ……….

Good run for an influential musician and mentor to some of the best. Sad to lose him, but I’m glad he lived a long life.

I did get to see his band in his later years. Glad to have.

Very sad news. I always loved his music.

Wow, this Clapton tribute was beautiful.

I was thinking while watching that Eric is really showing the years, but got a real lift with “I will see you soon, but not yet”.
