BLUESBREAKERS
SONGWRITER: JOHN MAYALL
COUNTRY: U.K.
ALBUM: CRUSADE
LABEL: LONDON RECORDS
GENRE: BLUES
YEAR: 1967
John Mayall & the
Bluesbreakers was an English blues rock band, led by singer, songwriter, and
multi-instrumentalist John Mayall, OBE. While never producing a radio-friendly hit on their own,
the Bluesbreakers greatest legacy is as an incubator for British rock and blues
musicians. Many of the best known bands to come out of Britain in
the 1960s and 1970s had members that came through the Bluesbreakers at one
time, forming the foundation of British blues music that still appears heavily
in classic rock radio. Among those with a tenure in the Bluesbreakers are Eric
Clapton and Jack Bruce (later of Cream), Peter Green, Mick Fleetwood, and John
McVie (who would form Fleetwood Mac), Mick Taylor (the Rolling Stones), Aynsley
Dunbar (Frank Zappa and The Mothers of Invention), and numerous other
musicians.
Mayall used the band name between 1963 and 1967, but then
dropped it for some fifteen years. However, in 1982 a 'Return of the
Bluesbreakers' was announced, and the name was in use until the band again
dissolved in 2008, to be resurrected again in 2009. The name has become
generic, without a clear distinction between recordings that are to be credited
to Mayall alone and recordings that are to be credited to Mayall and his band.
Crusade is the fourth
album and third studio album by the British blues rock band John Mayall &
the Bluesbreakers, released on 1 September 1967 on Decca Records. It was the
follow-up to A Hard Road, also released in 1967. As with their two previous
albums, Crusade was produced by Mike Vernon. The album was the first recordings
of the then-18-year-old guitarist, Mick Taylor.
Tears in my
eyes... and my body is all in pain
Tears in my
eyes... and my body is all in pain
I just can't stop
crying, till i see your face again
If you saw my
heart, you would be seeing how I feel
If you saw my
heart, you would be seeing how I feel
I just can't
believe, that my pain could be so real
Tears in my
eyes... every time you drive me away
Tears in my
eyes... every time you drive me away
Please leave me
alone, till tomorrow is yesterday
