Day 49 - John Mayall's Blues Breakers - Blues Breakers with Eric Clapton (1966)


It's a relief to hear a good album after the last fiasco I reviewed. "Blues Breakers with Eric Clapton" (AKA "Beano" because of the children's magazine Eric is reading in the photo) is a great blues rock album. Eric masterfully plays guitar throughout the album as John sings all the songs wonderfully, except for "Ramblin' On My Mind" which Eric sings. Among the songs are several instrumental pieces which I really enjoyed, "Hideaway" and "Steppin' Out" being my favourites. Overall this has become of my favourite blues rock album and i'm sure i'll be playing the songs I like over and over in the future. I give this album 4/5.

Tracks I enjoyed the most: All Your Love, Hideaway, Double Crossing Time, What'd I Say, Key To Love & Steppin' Out.
