WEBSITE NEWS
December 2007: We've made
some changes to JohnMayall.com! After a long wait, we have
finally added music clips to the website.
The most important feature we have added is the New-And-Improved
Listen To This! page, featuring 14 music clips of
John Mayall's long and prolific creative output. With 56
official album releases as of 2007, it was hard to sort through such a huge catalogue to come up with a cross-section of material that best represented a career that has spanned over four decades. We think
those wanting to find out what John Mayall is all about for the
first time as well as the long-time John Mayall aficionado
will find this page informative and entertaining.
We have also added jukeboxes to listen to clips in popups on our
merchandise page and brought back the Fanmail guestbook. Thanks go to the expertise
at www.whirledvisions.com for
helping with this website rehab!

THE STORY OF OUR LOGO
The original 1970 logo
design by John Mayall
The
JohnMayall.Com logo was taken from an original design
by John Mayall. This logo, for a short-lived label
called "Crusade Records", is on a very rare
album, "J.B. Lenoir", that John Mayall assembled
for Polygram and includes recordings by Lenoir in Germany
as well as interviews with his widow.
IN MEMORIAM
We sadly mourn the
loss of Steve Thompson and Jeff Healey this year. Bass
player Steve Thompson, an early Bluesbreaker, died early
this year of complications from a lung infection. Guitar
player Jeff Healey, who was featured on 2001's "Along
For The Ride"
album, passed away in March from leukemia.
Everything on this website is posted with John Mayall's personal input
and approval.
Long Live The Blues.
