    I was privileged to see Bluesbreakers with Eric Clapton, then Peter Green then Mick Taylor. John Mayall certainly had the knack. A really special era.

    Beano tribute gig at the Railway... awesome idea. Play the album from start to finish with various people playing each song.... and lots of Les Pauls obviously ❤️ This series is great for Bluesbreakers anoraks like me.

    Thanks man, I still have my Beano album. I'm 70 now, spent my life as a freelance guitarist. The Beano album was the gold standard of the day. Clapton full of passion and arrogance, but that's what it was...total dedication. Serious tone. Tubes and speakers being pushed hard.

      There's a live Cream version of "Sleepy Time Time" (audio only) on youtube, black & white pic of the three of them, Winterland S.F. Clapton's playing and tone are similar, mppossibly more intense because of the audience size.

    Kudos to you for rocking up there only last night I was thinking about my old 1962 and how unbearably loud it was ( I sold it after 3 months in 1979) not because it was too loud but because it was , and still is , too wobbly. But thanks for taking the time for a little wonder man . It gave me a warm smile , if only the chip shops were open.

    Nice work. So much history there. Another favourite blues album "Undead" by Ten Years After was also recorded at Klooks Kleek with the cables running to the Decca studios next door. Klooks Kleek of course took its name from "Klook's Clique" the 1956 album by jazz drummer Kenny Clarke

    Very cool and interesting. Love the history of buildings such as this. Can just imagine what it was like in its heyday with all those different artists passing through those doors. Just being on the steps I imagine gives one a thrill knowing so many amazing musicians walked on those steps. Or going to the pub where Led Zeppelin played. I imagine it was around the time of their 1st album. Thanks for the tour!! ..I hope to make it to England one day and stand on those steps..and have a drink at the Railway Tavern!!!

    Really enjoyed seeing this legendary venue. It looks like the building probably hasn't changed much since the '60s on the inside. Was the Railway another name for Klooks Kleek, or are they two separate venues? I think The Who played at the Railway as well in their early years. All of your videos are absolutely outstanding. Thank you very much for all that you do.

    would make for a good project (?) as well as what a crap shoot recording our guitar heroes
    and Brit Blues Bands wuz back in the day... cheers mate

    Great mythic place, however, they really dropped the ball with this one ..: “We don’t like their sound. Groups of guitars are on the way out,” a recording executive at Decca told the Beatles in 1962.

      To be fair to Decca's Mike Vernon, though, this wasn't the only label to turn the Beatles down - including other EMI labels. It was only the vision of George Martin (plus the fact that he had little to lose) that brought the recorded music of the Beatles to the public at large. George Harrison tipped Vernon off about the Rolling Stones, later on.
