That One Time John Lennon, Eric Clapton, Keith Richards, and Mitch Mitchell Played “Yer Blues” Before supergroups, there was ‘The Dirty Mac‘, a name given by John Lennon to a one-time performance with Eric Clapton, Keith Richards and Mitch Mitchell in December 1968.
They played the Lennon Beatles composition “Yer Blues” (from The White Album) for the Rolling Stones’ TV special titled The Rolling Stones Rock and Roll Circus. Recorded before a live audience in London, the original Rolling Stones line up performed six Stones classics. The program also included extraordinary performances by The Who, Jethro Tull, Taj Mahal, Marianne Faithfull, and The Dirty Mac. The show was the first time since the formation of the Beatles that Lennon—who was still in the group—had performed in public without them, and the first time he had performed live since the Beatles’ last tour ended in August 1966. Sonny Boy Williamson II. American blues harmonica player, singer and songwriter Alex or Aleck Miller (né Ford, possibly December 5, 1912[3][a] – May 24, 1965),[4] known later in his career as Sonny Boy Williamson, was an American blues harmonica player, singer and songwriter.[2] He was an early and influential blues harp stylist who recorded successfully in the 1950s and 1960s.
Miller used various names, including Rice Miller and Little Boy Blue, before calling himself Sonny Boy Williamson, which was also the name of a popular Chicago blues singer and harmonica player. To distinguish the two, Miller has been referred to as Sonny Boy Williamson II. (1) ''I'LL COME RUNNING OVER'' - SAMANTHA FISH BAND w/ Horns @ Callahan's, May 2017.

Savoy Brown, originally known as the Savoy Brown Blues Band, are an English blues rock band[1] formed in Battersea, south west London[2] in 1965.
Part of the late 1960s blues rock movement, Savoy Brown primarily achieved success in the United States, where they promoted their albums with non-stop touring.[2] Career[edit] The band was formed by guitarist Kim Simmonds[2] and harmonica player John O'Leary, following a chance meeting at Transat Imports record shop in Lisle Street, Soho, in 1965. The initial constant line-up adjustments were attributed to the "creative accountancy" employed by the band's manager, Harry Simmonds, brother of Kim.[3] Following the release of Raw Sienna (also released in 1969) Youlden departed the band. Singer Dave Walker returned to the group in the late 1980s and recorded two studio albums and one live album as lead vocalist, but left the group for a second time in 1991.
