By the time John Mayall recorded this album in Los Angeles mid-1980 the core line-up of his band had played hundreds of shows together over the previous year, and were a tight and well-oiled electric Blues machine. This album encompasses the absolute contemporary experience, complete with airtight rhythm section, piercing guitar licks and Mayall’s fierce harmonica, and distinctively soulful vocals. “Big Man Blues” is a more than worthy addition to any Blues fan’s collection.
