Guitar Heroes: The Decca Years 1965–1967

Guitar Heroes: The Decca Years 1965–1967 catches the point where John Mayall’s The Bluesbreakers became a vital training ground for a new wave of great guitarists.

Across four key albums, from the live charge of Klooks Kleek to the landmark Blues Breakers with Eric Clapton, this set maps out the birth of British blues-rock.

With Eric Clapton of Cream, Peter Green of Fleetwood Mac and Mick Taylor of The Rolling Stones, these recordings helped shape some of rock’s most important bands. The package also includes a new extended essay and a visual family tree tracing those connections.

The vinyl edition is cut AAA at Abbey Road Studios from the original Decca master tapes, keeping the dynamics, tone and character of these recordings intact.
