Genre: Album
Grade: A-
Notable People: John Mayall and the most recent version of the Blues Breakers, Produced by: Eric Corne and john Mayall
Title: The Sun is Shining Down
Review: Maybe nothing new or remarkable here –except that the undisputed Godfather of British Blues is still making fine albums well into his ninth decade. Every great British blues musician has done boot camp with Mayall’ s Blues Breakers (think Clapton, Page, Beck, John Mark, Johnny Almond and an endless list that far surpasses my available space)-and this version of the band is as good as ever. Mayall composed al the songs and lends his masterful vocals keyboards and unsurpassed harp to the proceedings (did I mention his uplifting blues songs that play against type?) along with the crackerjack band and surprise guest musician, Scarlett Rivera, on violin. Got Blues????-
