    The  40th  anniversary  deluxe   edition  of  John  Mayall's   classic
    Bluesbreakers with Eric Clapton album, issued in the U.K. in 2006,  is
    a two-CD,  43-song affair,  even though  the original  LP had  just 12
    tracks.  While  the many  extras  aren't nearly  as  essential as  the
    original  LP  itself,  this  reissue  neatly  packages  everything the
    Clapton lineup of the  Bluesbreakers recorded, while still  making the
    Bluesbreakers  with  Eric  Clapton  album  the  centerpiece.  Disc one
    presents both the mono and stereo  mixes of the record, which was  not
    just Mayall's best, but also  a cornerstone of both British  blues and
    blues-rock, as well as being  the first to showcase Clapton's  talents
    in full bloom  (and in a  purer blues context  than anytime before  or
    since). In common with many such mono-stereo packages for CD reissues,
    most  listeners  won't  find the  differences  drastic,  but sometimes
    they're noticeable -- in mono, Mayall's vocal on "All Your Love" has a
    much hollower, echoing  feel, and "Parchman  Farm" has keyboards  that
    are  inaudible  in  the  stereo mix  (which,  in  turn,  has a  longer
    harmonica intro for the same song).

    Of more value, at  least as far as  the extras go, is  disc two, which
    presents no less  than 19 tracks  that the Clapton  lineup recorded in
    1965  and  1966 that  didn't  appear on  the  Bluesbreakers with  Eric
    Clapton   album.   This   includes   the   1965   "I'm   Your    Witch
    Doctor"/"Telephone Blues" single, the A-side of which is not only  one
    of the Bluesbreakers' greatest recordings,  but one of the great  rock
    non-hit  singles  of  the  '60s  by  anyone,  with  searing futuristic
    distorted guitar. Also on hand is the fine late-1965 soul-pop-flavored
    studio recording "On Top of the World," and the less impressive,  more
    traditional  blues  of the  obscure  "Bernard Jenkins"/"Lonely  Years"
    single.  Then  there  are eight  previously  unreleased  1965-1966 BBC
    recordings, only one of them ("Key  to Love") of a song that  appeared
    on  the  Bluesbreakers  with Eric  Clapton  record;  the other  tracks
    include  radio versions  of "I'm  Your Witchdoctor,"  "On Top  of  the
    World," the early Mayall single "Crawling Up a Hill"/"Crocodile Walk,"
    and  three cool  numbers the  Bluesbreakers never  put on   their '60s
    studio  records ("Cheating  Woman," "Bye  Bye Bird,"  and "Nowhere  to
    Turn"). Rounding out the disc are the half-dozen 1966 live  recordings
    (with both Clapton and Jack Bruce  in the band) that have appeared  on
    compilations (five of them on Primal Solos, and the sixth, "They  Call
    It Stormy Monday," on the  Looking Back collection). The sound  on the
    BBC cuts is decent, though the performances not as full and cutting as
    the Clapton  lineup's studio  work; the  live material  is in  fuzzier
    sound,  though listenable.  Despite the  uneven nature  of the  second
    disc, however, it's great to have all of this Mayall-Clapton  material
    in one place, and impossible  to imagine a more definitive  collection
    of the  Mayall-Clapton Bluesbreakers  recordings. [The  Deluxe Edition
    contains live and unreleased versions.]
