Synopsis

John Mayall, widely acknowledged as the father of British blues, baptised a generation of British musicians and an audience who might otherwise never have discovered the blues.

Apart from having discovered - in Eric Clapton, Peter Green, and Mick Taylor - three of the most acclaimed guitarists of the rock era, his "blues school" fostered the talents of a roster of artists who have since profoundly influenced the course of Rock 'n' Roll.

Mayall's new incarnation of the Bluesbreakers, officially launched in 1984, included guitarists Coco Montoya and Walter Trout who quickly proved to be as innovative and technically gifted as their peers and future stars in their own right.
