Gaz Mayall DJ's and hosts London's longest running one-nighter Gaz's
Rockin Blues. He occasionally plays live with his ska band The
Trojans. He first began Gaz's Rockin' Blues in July 1980 after a few
guest appearances at the Two-Tone club, Oxford Street in 1979.
The eldest son of Blues legend John Mayall, Gaz was raised on a musical
diet of R&B and was dragged around every beat, pop & rock festival
and venues throughout the sixties as a child. First becoming a lifelong
fan of reggae as a kid on the football terraces in the skin head era circa
1968-72.
Gaz began collecting records aged 17, bluk buying cheap reggae and ska
collections down street markets such as Portbello road and Brick Lane
at a time when it seemed no one wanted them.
Also a great fan of boogie woogie, Rock&Roll, traditional Irish music,
funk and world music, Gaz, heavily influenced by a family friend Radio
One DJ and blues musician Alexis Korner, pursued his love of music in
earnest and now has a world famous collection of predominantly black dance
music ranging from the first tribal drum beats to the latest drum &
bass.
For the last nineteen years Gaz has been running his own record label
Gaz's Rockin' Records producing ska acts and artistes around the world.
Gaz's Rockin' Blues is London's longest running one-nighter club. It
was founded on 2 July 1980 had been held at Gossip's on Dean street for
