He's 83 years old and is playing 130 shows this year - how does John Mayall keep going?

He’s been called the Godfather of the Blues, John Mayall is into his 8th decade of life and yet is showing no sign of slowing down.  His band has been a proving ground for some of the greatest musicians of all time - guitarists like Eric Clapton, Peter Green, Mick Taylor and Sonny Landreth, plus Aynsley Dunbar, Mick Fleetwood, John McVie, and Jack Bruce.

His brand new record is called Talk About That, and it’s a diverse affair, encapsulating the many twists and turns of his career, giving Mayall a chance to play organ, piano, harmonica and guitar.  Out of the 11 tracks, eight are recent songs composed by him.

As is with every Mayall record, there’s a surprise, this time he’s joined by guitar great Joe Walsh for a couple of tracks, including the searing “The Devil Must Be Laughing.”

Mayall unbelievably has 130 shows scheduled for this year - he shares what keeps him going.  Plus, how not surprisingly, he prefers vinyl over digital music.
