Review Quotes:
"John Mayall had the wisdom, the insight, the foresight, and the vision to let Eric Clapton do his thing. Turning the guitar up that loud was radical at the time! After that, we were all Mayall fans. He's a big, big hero of ours."
-- "Stevie Van Zandt, E Street Band/Disciples of Soul"
