John Mayall is gone after a long productive life on the world stage at the age 90. Several days ago I was thinking about him. This foggy Saturday morning I learned of his passing.

On March 1, 1969 after attending the Chinese New Year parade in San Francisco I went into a record store in North Beach and purchased his classic album, “The Blues Alone.” At that moment I became a Mayall fan. This LP is one of my all time favorites.
