I don't think its an exaggeration to say that rock and metal as we know it today wouldn't exist without John Mayall. If you think of all the blues rock and guitar driven music that branched off from this band and the massive influence that Peter Green, Eric Clapton and Mick Taylor left on the guitar world alone, none of it would have happened if it weren't for John Mayall. It's interesting looking back because when you listen to artists and bands like SRV, ZZ Top, Jeff Beck,Joe Bonamassa,Johnny Winter, Paul Rodgers, Jeff Healey, Gary Moore and many more you can hear the John Mayall influence all over their work.
That's a very good point and thank you for commenting. The influence and musical footprints that legends leave behind for others to walk in is important to notice and study. Music history and how everything connects together (in one way or another) is so interesting. Those creative torches have been passed around for hundreds of years. : )
In recent weeks, I’ve really come to learn the gargantuan amount of influences you share on this channel. Eric Satie is something I would never have thought to suggest, but you did an amazing job. It really wouldn’t surprise me if you uploaded a two-hand tapping guide to serialism. This channel really is something very special. Thank you.
Thanks for this Enjoyed it Back in the sixties we had a venue in Milwaukee called The Scene I saw Mayall there with Mick Taylor I also saw Hendrix and Cream there
Great player huge influencer of the British blues rock explosion. Can't wait to check this out. Was he the dude that had that Marshall dumble amp??? I'm probably butchering the hell out of the name. Not sure if you covered that, guess I'll find out when I watch it
This is really good, but do you think you could put some charts of the chords you talk about up? Maybe I'm just dumb but those charts would help me out a ton with these. Especially seeing as some of these chords aren't the first voicing that would come up when you Google them.
John Mayall was critical to music as we know it today. RIP Jack Bruce played with Mayall in 65', before forming Cream with Clapton (who obviously played with Mayall) in early 66'. Mick Taylor played guitar for Mayall before becoming a Rolling Stone. Peter Green played with Mayall and met John McVie and Mick Fleetwood there, who later were recruited by Green to another project he made, thus giving it the name Fleetwood Mac. And so on...
I am virtually certain All Your Love guitar riff accompaniment is played by Clapton with subsequent solo overdubs. John is singing and playing organ. Same goes for your other examples. John’s guitar style was different, I’d say simpler. The best sampler is his solo effort The Blues Alone from 1967, on which he plays all instrument except drums.

Mayall never stopped having over the top guitar players
the sheer genius of John Mayall cannot be comprehended. "genius" being an understatement
Another good episode🙂
In 1993, I saw John Mayall, Johnny Winter, and Otis Rush in Toronto. You don't get lineups like that now a days.
Thanks for this Enjoyed it

I think Clapton is playing the rhythm riffs and leads are overdubbed...Not Mayall's guitar style...
Don’t for get Steve Gaines and his interpretation of T for Texas
