john mayall - 'somebody's acting like a child'

It's difficult to believe that he's British, he's so totally part of the blues fabric and his name is, with a lot of justification, up there with the very best. I picked up his 'Blues From Laurel Canyon' album today and I am so glad I did. It's jaw-droppingly good and I'm going to make sure both my children listen to it too. I've made it my mission to introduce them to as much great music from as many genres as possible and the blues features very highly. We've done Johnson, Leadbelly, Howling Wolf, Big Mama Thornton, Peter Green and I can't wait until they get to hear this.
