ESSENTIAL ALBUMS
touring around . They wanted to chase girls and drink booze . I get that . So I just immersed myself in records like Jeff Beck Truth , Rory Gallagher Irish Tour ‘ 74 , Fresh Cream , Goodbye Cream . I would immerse myself in the British Blues . John Mayall and the Bluesbreakers with Peter Green ( Hard Road ) and Clapton ( Beano album ) and even some of the stuff with Mick Taylor , Blues from Laurel Canyon . Which , oddly enough , is where I live . It ’ s actually close to where John ( Mayall ) lived back in his time . So it all comes full circle . So those were the real seminal records of my teenage years . ■
