HIDEAWAY (1966) by John Mayall's Bluesbreakers- featuring Eric Clapton

CLAPTON was the first and foremost everyone sought to unseat- and no one came close, not Hendrix, Beck or SRV (who I love). CLAPTON IS THE HANDS DOWN BEST EVER despite Patti...

I just hate Eric Clapton why he changed this guitar!!the sound is simply explosive. Amazing. I can't describe what i feel everytime ihear this tune.😊😊😊

It is not that good.

Too bad EC stopped playing like this after Layla.

I bought The Blues breakers album (Beano) when I was 16, in 1966. I still have it. Brilliant stuff. Dave Clemson Of Colosseum is my all time favourite though.

No gadgets, just fingers, 6 strings & a touch of genius without ego. Clapton at his 'in your face, finest' !

He played it exactly the same as Freddie King did 5 years earlier but with 20% more gain. That's what passes for innovation in Britain. All credit goes to Jim Marshall, who was also copying a genuine American genius but managed to bring something of his own to the table.

… and then there’s Michael Bloomfield ….

THE BASS PLAYING IS GREAT

CARLOS GUITARLOS 90042 USA

Great Freddie King tune. This is back when we called Eric "slow hand".

Mayall blues god.❤❤❤

First guitarist I know that would play double notes in his leads

Clapton is looking for somewhere else to go…I mean….,he hardly ever showed up…. LOL!

John Mayall will be inducted into the Rock n Roll Hall of Fame this year 2024.

No me canso de escuchar este tema.

I once borrowed a friend's album that had this on it. He also loaned me his Peter Greene album. That's what I listened to when I was moving from rhythm guitar and organ over to lead. Pretty good examples, hunh?

Somehow I get more blown away by EC’s guitar play every time I hear this song.

1966/7

Such a beautiful tone - Far removed from that fuzzy cheap Strat sound he favours now - But hey - perhaps his hearing has changed somewhat over the years - Whatever - at least this track off this album will live forever - in the file marked check this out!!!!!

“Killing Floor”(Howlin Wolf)” in the middle bit .

Guitarists: if you want this tone, you want Throbak KZ-115's.
A2. Long. Don't ask me how but they nailed it.
The neck? Might want to consider flipping it. I think they overwind the screw.

Lots of howlin wolf in there.

Like this guy He’s got blues written all over Keep it up man

Stolen Clapton image (Cream at the Marquee Club in 1966) !!

Now that Fleetwood Mac is apparently in limbo with the passing of Christine McVie, I wonder if John and/or Mick would consider working on a blues project with Eric

Still sends shivers down my spine, this song. Great, biting tone. EC really at the top of his game here.

So many great lines here.

He's simply the best - at this sort of stuff.

For me, the reason Clapton is rated among the greats. One of the tracks that inspired me to play the guitar. The volume control alone is masterful. Then factor in the phrasing, tonality and emotional output. Unbeatable.

Clapton does great things with this Freddie King tune.

I used to love blues and still love it. Greetings from Warsaw, Poland

Back in 1966/67 when I started playing GTR this was a must know/play instrumental!!!
