The Fuel 2000 reissue of
Blues Forever highlights
John Mayall's re-formed
Bluesbreakers of the '80s. This live date is an early showcase for
Coco Montoya and
Walter Trout, the featured guitarists who secured their musical reputations during this stint with
Mayall. While
Blues Forever is mainly a guitarist showcase,
Mayall leads the proceedings but doesn't dominate them. These eight digitally remastered cuts include strong versions of the
Willie Dixon/
Otis Rush classic "All Your Love," "Ridin' on the L & N," and
Mayall's signature tune, "Room to Move."
