REST IN MIGHTY, BOOMING BLUES POWER, JOHN MAYALL, ANOTHER LEGEND LOST.

PIC(S) INFO: Mega spotlight on English bluesman, guitarist, vocalist, bandleader, and the reigning undisputed "Godfather of British blues," the now late, great John Mayall (1933-2024), photographed in London, UK, c. 1970. 📸: Michael Putland.

PIC #5: One of the last surviving shots of the now deceased John Mayall, British bluesman & pioneer of the electric blues, another legend lost.

LIFE & DEATH: "British guitarist and Bluesbreakers leader John Mayall has died. Mayall’s family announced the news on his official social media accounts, stating that the musician died in his California home on Monday, July 22, “surrounded by loving family.” The statement cited unspecified health issues, but did not reveal an exact cause of death. John Mayall was 90 years old.

Dubbed “the Godfather of British Blues,” John Mayall was a nurturing figure to a slew of musicians at the start of their careers. Mayall formed THE BLUESBREAKERS in the early 1960s after moving to London, and the band’s shifting lineup included a post-Yardbirds, pre-CREAM Eric Clapton, who recorded with Mayall on the highly influential 1966 LP "Blues Breakers With Eric Clapton." When Clapton left to start CREAM, he was replaced by eventual FLEETWOOD MAC guitarist Peter Green and Mick Taylor, who was ultimately snatched up by THE ROLLING STONES."

"THE FIRST, AND PERHAPS THE MOST IMPORTANT GUITAR IN HIS LIFE, IS THE 1972 GIBSON LES PAUL DELUXE..x

PIC INFO: Spotlight on the late, great "Fast" Eddie Clarke (1950-2018), former lead guitarist of the mighty MOTÖRHEAD, seen here playing a 1972 Gibson Les Paul Deluxe electric guitar, c. 1979, during the band's "Overkill" UK tour.

LES PAUL OVERVIEW: "The first, and perhaps the most important guitar in his life, is the 1972 Gibson Les Paul Deluxe that he bought new in that same year for just over 200 pounds and from which he soon removed its original pick ups to replace them with a DiMarzio."

By the way, even if you fully plan to vote for Biden in November (because Trump would be worse and has declared that if elected he would ban Palestinians from entering the US x, x, x, x)...

You can and I would argue should call or email Biden or whatever other Democrats represent you and just straight up lie about it. Tell them "I'm a constituent, and I've voted for you in x number of elections, and thanks to your support for the genocide of the Palestinian people, I will never, ever vote for you again."

Politicians, Democrats, and especially Biden need a fire lit under their asses, because the vast majority of them clearly aren't going to do shit without one. Or, worse, be like Biden and actively be the reason that Israel can continue its genocide on a political, monetary, and military level.

Tell Biden and other politicians that you will never vote for them again. It doesn't matter if it's true. It will help pressure US politicians to stop this genocide, and therefore it's the right thing to do.

Obviously this also applies to other countries where politicians are supporting Israel's genocide, especially countries that have cut funding to UNRWA (list here).

Rainbow Bridge - I can't wait to get on the road again

La copertina rappresenta un po' tutto questo, i chilometri che abbiamo percorso e che contiamo ancora di fare anche in senso metaforico

Più che una copertina, un manifesto di vita! Quella macchina che “veleggia” verso il sole, immortalata nella cover del nuovo disco, la dice lunga sull’attitudine dei Rainbow Bridge, che di chilometri in questi anni ne hanno macinati per raggiungere anche la più improbabile sala concerti. Una predilezione per le soluzioni live che è sempre apparsa palese nei dischi precedenti dei pugliesi e che,…
