One of the times I saw him then, featured a young Mick Taylor (later joined The Stones), and a fifteen-year-old Andy Fraser on bass. Andy went on to form 'Free'.
Mayall was one of those people who seemed to have always been around.
R.I.P. John Mayall. He was the nucleus, that all the other protons and neutrons, of what we now know was the big bang of British music, revolved around, and were drawn to for powerful influence. I saw him two or three times in the 60s at the Twisted wheel and the Torch, perhaps, and was priveleged then without even realising it. Great life well lived. There is a good wiki profile that tells of all the band members that he nurtured and influenced. We will not see his like again.
