Mayall played a key role, for his missionary work came a generation of young British musicians in touch with the blues. This generation poplandschap changed forever. Mayall had a good nose for talent. Eric Clapton and Jack Bruce (Cream), Peter Green, Mick Fleetwood and John McVie (Fleetwood Mac) and Walter Trout learned the trade in his band The Bluesbrakers.
