The Blues Bloggers

"The Godfater of British Blues" features contributions from Mayall, his family, fellow musicians, colleagues, and friends in interviews and performances. Rare archive film from all periods of his life marks his achievements and some of the events that formed them. "The Turning Point" is the earliest rockumentary of Mayall and his musicians filmed in their homes, dressing rooms, motorways, airports, clubs, concert halls, and at festivals. In 1969, Mayall was changing the emphasis of his band away from the "electric circus" of lead guitar and drums to a more gentler approach without drums and acoustic guitar, flutes, and saxophones.

This release offers a candid portrait of John Mayall, combining archival material with tour footage and concert performances. Mayall's music has provided a major source of inspiration for many artists, including Fleetwood Mac and Eric Clapton. Charting the ever-evolving blues style that Mayall is constantly honing and perfecting, this is a great way to experience the man behind the music.
