Would anyone like to do a musical family tree of Alexis Korner? I don't think Pete Frame even would tempt it.

I got to meet John Mayall briefly when I saw him in 2001 (I think it was). Excellent show...!

He's one of the greats, definitely.

Alexis Korner's Blues Incorporated - Hoochie Coochie Man

Alexis Korner (19 April 1928 1 January 1984), born Alexis Andrew Nicholas Koerner, was a pioneering blues musician and broadcaster who has sometimes been referred to as "the Founding Father of British Blues". A major influence on the sound of the British music scene in the 1960s, Korner was instrumental in bringing together various English blues musicians.

GRAHAM BOND - Love is the Law

Graham John Clifton Bond (b. in Romford, Essex, 28 October 1937 8 May 1974 at Finsbury Park station, North London) was an English musician, considered a founding father of the English rhythm and blues boom of the 1960s. Along with John Mayall and Alexis Korner, Bond was one of the great catalytic figures of '60s rock in England.
Technologically and musically, Bond was an innovator, perhaps the first English musician to use the Hammond organ and Leslie speaker combination (in an R&B context), the first to "split" the instrument for portability, the first to build an electronic keyboard, and the first rock musician to use a mellotron, which can be heard on his first two LPs.
