[2015-04-21] John Mayall's Bluesbreakers "Live In 1967" (Forty Below)

Description
In 1967, before there was a Fleetwood Mac, Peter Green, John McVie and Mick Fleetwood were John Mayall's Bluesbreakers. The four musicians were only together for three months, which makes it even more remarkable that a staunch fan from Holland was able to sneak a one channel reel to reel tape recorder into five London clubs and capture this exciting glimpse into music history. For almost fifty years these tapes have remained unheard until John recently got them and began restoring them with the technical assistance of Eric Corne of Forty Below Records. Corne adds ''While the source recording was very rough and the final result is certainly not hi-fidelity, it does succeed in allowing us to hear how spectacular these performances are.''

I read somewhere these tapes really sounded very poor. I'm going to read more reviews before considering this.

Because I love Green I'll check these out, but I'm just about done with buying music because of it's historical significance. There's just too much other stuff to listen to.

I'm in agreement on the sound; I'd want to hear it before making any decision.
