"Road Show Blues" (1981) was John Mayall's third album for the U.K.'s DJM Records, following "Bottom Line" (1979) and "No More Interviews" (1980).
At this time, his backup band included guitarist/singer James Quill Smith, bassist Kevin McCormick, drummer Soko Richardson, and singer Maggie Parker.
Through some corporate legerdemain, the record has bounced around from one company to another and been reissued several times under different titles. These reissues include "The Adventures Of John Mayall", "Road Show (opens in a new tab)", "Bluesbreaker (opens in a new tab)", "Lost And Gone (opens in a new tab)", "Big Man Blues" (opens in a new tab)" and "Why Worry (opens in a new tab)" among others.
