John Mayall (Room to Move)
Mayall's group, The Bluesbreakers was a sort of training ground for British Blues musicians. Among the musicians who played in this revolving door of a band were Eric Clapton, Peter Green, Mick Fleetwood, John McVie, Jack Bruce, Aynsley Dunbar and Mick Taylor.

Unfortunately this isn't an actual video of Mayall but one of his songs, one of my favorites, as background to a LeMans race:

I don't know a whole lotta Mayall but what I do know, I definitely like. I probably could have found many better vids but I do love this song and couldn't find it otherwise.

4. Love him! I've seen him in concert about 4 times.
Also have some Bluesbreakers albums on vinyl. I think the guy's still gigging and is around 70 years old now.

6. I saw him once, and thoroughly enjoyed his band.
I had the Bluesbreakers With Eric Clapton on vinyl, but it, along with the rest of my collection was melted down in a house fire some years back.
