From "The Turning Point" album...lost count the number of times I saw John Mayall at the Green's Playhouse/ Apollo Glasgow..musicians were always top class.One guy who really surprised me was Jimmy McCulloch (great blues guitarist) from Thunderclap Newman / Wings.
Proud to be a John Mayall fan. He always surrounded himself with first class musicians & 'inspired' the best from them. This video is mighty !!! Thanks for posting.
@fendermac , I'm not sure that this was supposed to be a Bluesbreakers album, as Mayall was taking a break from all that at the time. It was more a Mayall effort to broaden his own musical horizons.
@jaht3z ...Is this not the 'Turning Point' line up? I don't consider the fact that Bluesbreakers wasn't in the title to be particularly significant.Mayall has had so many band members down the years that the handle seems irrelevant somehow.
@fendermac The Turning Point lineup, yes. But That wasn't the Bluebreakers lineup, or a Bluesbreakers project. It was a conscious effort by Mayall to do something more low key, no electric guitars or drums, and in a different direction.
The Bluesbreakers broke up in May '69, Turning Point was recorded at the Fillmore in July '69.

It's always great to see the smile on someone's face when you ask them if they've ever listened to John Mayall, and they have.

Somehow I just discovered JM and while I am going on 50 now, I feel like I have just begun to live... and this music is a great help.
