John Mayall and the Bluesbreakers closed the Blues Tent and did so with tributes to Sonny Boy Williamson and Albert King, among others. Here’s a video of Mayall and some couldn’t-be-restrained boogiers.  I got more than a few inquiries from people who had no idea who he was. Why they thought I’d know anything, I’ll never know. Did I have an expression of great knowledge? Or just the hair as gray as Mayall’s.
