"New Year, New Band, New Company" is a studio album by British blues musician John Mayall, released in 1975. It marked a transitional period for Mayall, as it was his first album following the dissolution of his previous band, the Bluesbreakers. The album features a new lineup of musicians, including former members of the band Stone the Crows.
With this album, Mayall continued to explore various blues styles, incorporating elements of rock, jazz, and funk. Tracks like "Rocky Road Blues" and "Congo Square" showcase Mayall's signature blues sound, while also experimenting with new musical influences.
While "New Year, New Band, New Company" may not be as widely recognized as some of Mayall's earlier work, it remains a notable release in his extensive discography, reflecting his ongoing musical evolution and his ability to adapt to changing trends in the blues genre.
