JOHN MAYALL’S BLUESBREAKERS LIVE IN 1967- VOLUME THREE

LOS ANGELES, CA – The Godfather of British Blues, John Mayall, is proud to announce the upcoming release of his newly restored album, John Mayall & the Bluesbreakers, Live in 1967 – Volume Three. It is the 3rd and final Volume in the series and will be released on September 8, 2023, via Forty Below Records. This recording features the original lineup of Fleetwood Mac – Peter Green, John McVie, and Mick Fleetwood.  2016’s Live in 1967 – Volume Two was hailed as a “welcome second helping” by Rolling Stone. The first single, “Stand Baby Baby” will be released on Friday, July 14th, pre-save the track here. Pre-Order Volume Three Here.

One of the most influential bands in Classic Rock history, recorded by dedicated fan Tom Huissen who took his one-channel reel-to-reel tape recorder to five London clubs in 1967, these historical performances were unheard of for fifty years. Recently, Mayall obtained the tapes & began restoring them with technical assistance from Eric Corne of Forty Below Records. Corne adds, “While the source recording was very rough and the final result is certainly not hi-fidelity, it does succeed in allowing us to hear how spectacular these performances are.” Over a 2-year period, the band also featured Eric Clapton and Mick Taylor of The Rolling Stones.

Mayall, who turned 89 last November, earned his 2nd Grammy® nomination in 2023 for his last album, The Sun is Shining Down. The Sun is Shining Down was Mayall’s 5th studio album co-produced with Eric Corne, for Forty Below Records, a fruitful partnership that began with 2014’s A Special Life. Mayall’s recent Forty Below Releases have featured a diverse group of guests, including Joe Walsh, Todd Rundgren, Little Steven Van Zandt, Joe Bonamassa, Marcus King, Rush’s Alex Lifeson, and  The Heartbreakers’ Mike Campbell.
