john_mayall raze with all his famous nurturing of iconic guitarists when they were in their embryonic stages, maybe it's fitting that my favourite album he made is one on which he played the lead guitar himself. low volume music, he called it. no drummer. no overdrive. no stars in the making. just acoustic guitar played without a pick, bass, woodwinds, mouth percussion, and john's own harmonica, slide, and telecaster plugged straight into the pa system, without a single pedal in the signal path. the two long songs that start the second side are the ones i always come back to. some days i think i wish they would never end. 240725 what's it to you? who go blather from
