JOHN MAYALL - 'BACK TO THE ROOTS'
1971 U.S.A.1st PRESSING DOUBLE LP
My listings a this week include an extensive collection of albums by the 'Godfather of the British Blues' scene - John Mayall.
His musical career spans fifty years and he has just released his 57th album. However, most notable period of his work ocurred during the late '60s, which is where most of this collection dates from.
He was the founder of John Mayall & the Bluesbreakers and has been influential in the careers of many instrumentalists, including: Eric Clapton, Jack Bruce, Peter Green, John McVie, Mick Fleetwood, Mick Taylor, Don "Sugarcane" Harris, Harvey Mandel, Larry Taylor, Aynsley Dunbar, Hughie Flint, Jon Hiseman, Dick Heckstall-Smith, Andy Fraser, Johnny Almond, Jon Mark, Walter Trout, Coco Montoya, and Buddy Whittington. & his Bluesbreakers.
All discs in this collection have been put together by a single collector over many years and represent a rare opportunity to acquire most of his greatest LPs, all in outstanding condition.
This *MINT* double album is a U.S. pressing dating from 1971 on the red Polydor label: 25-3002
It is housed within a textured, heavy card stock gatefold cover complete with a superb deluxe 24-page colour inner-booklet printed on heavy, textured paper.
This disc also comes with its original blue Polydor advertising inner-sleeves + a Polydor/Blue Horizon 'Album & Tape Catalog' leaflet.
