Blues musician John Mayall, the "godfather of British blues" whose bands included some of the most famous and virtuosic rock musicians of the past 60 years, died on Monday at the age of 90. A singer, songwriter and multi-instrumentalist, Mayall has been at the heart of the British blues scene since the 1960s. His band The Bluesbreakers at various times included Clapton and Jack Bruce, later of Cream; Peter Green, Mick Fleetwood and John McVie of Fleetwood Mac; Mick Taylor, Jon Hiseman, Dick Heckstall Smith and Harvey Mandel. Although Mayall never approached the fame of some of his illustrious alumni, he was still performing in his late 80s.

I really had no expectations when I saw him live a few years back and was pleasantly surprised. He still gave a great show.
