Hi all,

One of my favourite bands of all time is John Mayall and The Bluesbreakers. Many of the finest blues musician's passed through the band which was a 'breeding ground' for the British blues explosion of the mid-to-late 1960s. The line-up often resembled a who's who of British blues. Just some of the great musician's who passed through the band at some stage, or who have worked with John Mayall, are:

John Mayall - keyboards, harmonica, guitar, vocals
Eric Clapton - guitar, vocals
Peter Green - guitar
Mick Taylor - guitar
Harvey Mandel - guitar
Albert King - guitar
John McVie - bass guitar
Jack Bruce - bass guitar
Larry Taylor - bass guitar
Hughie Flint - drums
Keef Hartley - drums
Ron Selico - drums
Dick Heckstall-Smith - saxophone
Ernie Watts - saxophone
