* - Originally on the 'Axis: Bold As Love' LP / Between 1957 and 1961 Hendrix earned a local reputation for frequently showing up at "The Spanish Castle Ballroom" with his guitar and amp, and asking if he could sit in and play along. He attempted this with the Wailers, the Dave Lewis Combo, The Dynamics, and other local bands.... See LINK above/ left for the full story.
Comment:
Thanks to Tully, Harold, Stu, Larry and Ron for suggestions for John Mayall tracks.
This track was originally on _only_ this compilation, and not on any John Mayall album at the time. / This label had only 4 releases in 1966 - 1967, specializing in British Blues. // Click on the Link above, left to view the original single
* - For this album, Mayall invited some former members of his band, notably Clapton, Mick Taylor and drummer Keef Hartley. Cick on the Link above, left to view an original French single, with a picture sleeve.
Chosen by Lawrence Azrin. WHO? - Look at the sub-header on top of this playlist - I'm the one who reveals Rick's tracks (about 2% of the work) and also adds a lot of info to the playlist (98% of the work). - LsA
