Alvin Lee is in the top 3 🎸 players 👍‼️

The Drummer was Alan Young and the slide guitar was none other than George Harrison.

I saw Ten Years After in the early 70's. Alvin was one of the greatest guitarist of all time.

Done properly, music is not heard, but felt. This was done properly.

This song is a MASTERPIECE.

The great slide guitar work of George Harrison. Alvin Lee even tones down his playing to fit the mood of That Beautiful Slide. One of my all time favorites. Thank you.

George Harrison’s slide guitar in the middle is fantastic!

One of the greatest guitarist our generation ever heard. His years with Ten Years After were legend. I put him in that special catagory of axemen w/ Rory Gallager, Prince, Billy Gibons, Jimi, Carlos Santana, Gary Moore, Jeff Beck and even today's Joe Bonamassa.

It was a sad day when Alvin Lee passed away...and from all things after a minor routine surgery.

Alvin Lee is definitely one of Blues Greats but has often been overlooked and underrated. I am a blues guitarist and it surprises me how many other blues guitarists that I know have not heard of him. By the way, it's OK to let a tear flow. I am a 6ft 250lb man and I cannot get through listening to or playing this song without tears flowing. The guitar work just pierces through and rips at your heart.

This is so insanely good, I can't believe I have not heard this before... wow!!!

This is a masterpiece from Alvin.

Never heard this one before. Just gorgeous

I had an older friend who turned me onto Ten Years After (Alvin Lee) back in very early 80's and I never looked back. What a favor he did for me....

George & Alvin...!!! LEGENDS...!!! 🎸🎤🎼

Alvin Lee has always been my favorite guitarist, and Ten Years After in my top 5 favorite bands of all time. R.I.P.

I really enjoyed seeing you react to Alvin Lee's most overlooked song. And kudos to George Harrison on slide guitar. This song hit me right between the eyes!

I'm 67 years old and I was Totally blessed to be In the Era of the Greatest Music ever made . I GREW Up listening to this stuff. I can that.feel the Groove that I did when I first heard this music ..Elvis was master guitar player .and song composer . Thank you for sharing. This.once again. Great to hear. It.again.

Maybe you would like Alvin Lee with 10 Years After playing Woodstock, the song is titled, "I'm Going Home". Just wear seat belts ☮️🌹🎼🎸🎵🎶🎵

Thank you for reviewing Alvin Lee - The Bluest Blues. I was there in 1969 at the old Red Sox stadium, where 25 of the greatest bands of that era played over the weekend. Alvin Lee and Ten Years After were the opening band. Such an amazing performance!

Alvin Lee was a super fav guitarist/singer of mine after he released "I'd love to change the world" and " I'm goin home" from Woodstock. RIP Alvin. Thx Rogue :)

Your emotions are as pure as your beauty. I get lost in your expressions. Music has this otherworldly power. ;-)

The combination of Alvin and George is absolutely mind blowing here. ❤❤🎉🎉

The amazing Tim Hinkley was on keyboards. George Harrison (Beatles) did the first guitar solo.

So glad you did this, Alvin Lee ( and his band "Ten Years After" ) seem to be much overlooked. Alvin never seems to get a mention in Greatest Guitarists lists but for me he has to be at least included in the conversation. I have as much a prejudiced musical ear as everyone else and my goto guitar players all emerged from the glorious decade of the early sixties / early seventies from the UK, they are not necessarily the greatest but they were all pretty unique in their playing styles - Hank Marvin, George Harrison, Eric Clapton, Jeff Beck, Jimmy Page, Peter Green, Paul Kossoff, Jimi Hendrix ( honorary Brit), David Gilmour, Alvin Lee, Albert Lee, Robert Fripp, Richard Thompon and I'm sure there are others that my aged brain has forgootton. Love your reactions you beautiful lady.

Love this song!! Great choice. Alvin Lee is such a good guitarist. And, we get to listen along with one of the prettiest smiles on the internet too?!! Woooo! Now we're cookin' with bacon!! 😃

Alvin Lee was one of the greatest, you must remember George Harrison was also on guitar for this song

Well done RR, yes Alvin is a legend and your reaction is totally on point. Beautiful magic from Alvin and his band..

This for me is one of the greatest love songs ever.

I've played congas wih the man, back in 1983, not far from the Thames river. Reading Festival. Blowing off some steam. Blowing other stuff too. Nice guy, really. And a more than decent guitar player. Fuck yeah.

Perfect song, performed so well. Words can't describe the feelings.

Thank you, a great musician and an amazing guitarist! R.I.P. Alvin Lee!

Never got the recognition he deserved...

Holy crap, where have i been, no clue who Alvin Lee was. I’m so going to have to listen to more!! Thank You for introducing him to us all!!!!!

YEAH !! ALVIN LEE AND GEORGE HARRISON TOGETHER ON THIS GREAT HEART STRING PULLING BLUES SONG!! ALVIN HAS ALWAYS BEEN IN MY TOP 5 TASTY ROCK AND BLUES GUITAR PLAYERSHE SCORCHED AT WOODSTOCK AND THIS IS A GREAT EXAMPLE OF A DEEP EMOTIONALLY LADEN BLUES SONG THAT EXEMPLIFIES THE FORM IN A TRUELY PURE HEART FORM. THIS IS MY FIRST VISIT TO YOUR SITE, AND I LOVED WATCHING YOUR FACIAL EXPRESSIONS AND HAND MOVEMENTS IN RESPONSE TO THE VARIOUS PASSAGES, YOU ARE SO IMMERSED EMOTIONALLY IN THE SONG THAT YOUR MOVEMENTS BECOME AN EXTENSION AND PHYSICAL REPRESENTATION OR INTERPETATION OF THE EMOTIONAL CONTENT OF THE SONG, I AM 71 NOW AND A GUITAR PLAYER AND I STILL CANNOT GET THAT GREAT TONE THAT ALVIN SEEMS TO BRING FROM THE CORE OF HIS BEING...SOMETIMES I WILL GET A FEW NOTES THAT APPROACH THIS SOUGHT AFTER TONAL PLATAU IF ONLY FOR A FEW SECONDS, BUT DURING THOSE SECONDS I FEEL TRANSPORTED TO A HIGHER REALM OF CONSCIONESS ( sic) AND GET TO FEEL IF ONLY FOR A FEW MOMENTS THE CELESTIAL HARMONY THAT MUSIC CAN DELIVER. KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK!!

The BEST Melodic Blues: Slide guitar, pinch harmonics, powerful lead lines, great percussion and keyboard pads-Awesome! By the way, George Harrison played the slide guitar. "While their guitars gently weep"

You my dear are....... AWESOME !!!!

Love your reaction 🤗. Robin Trower, Carlos Santana, Gary Moore, Javier Vargas, etc. You are in for a great treat 🎂 ahead.

I have been listening to this song daily, probably the most underrated song. Didn't know people reacted to songs, but that solo is worth a reaction

I can`t believe, that I did not know this song, so much emotion, both guitars play so intense,with their bare souls, but you are right, behind every emotional song is a sad story... I must admit, I really like your reactions on such great songs, did not know, that people are actually reacting on songs online, but surprisingly I like it...Keep up your emotional work, it is appreciated.

Even Vivaldi and Bach were playing their air guitars in Heaven along with this one!

I consider this song as the perfect blues song. Use to see Ten Years After every time they come through Atlanta. One of the best of the best. May you R.I.P. Alvin Lee

Miss you RogueRxyce! Your approach to the music was always enthusuastic and honest and you were a treasure! I hope you are well!

Masterpiece!

Pretty close to "Blues" perfection!

There is JOY in the blues and it was written all over your face. As a young man in the 70's I heard BB King's "Thrill Is Gone" and my life forever change. Yes, I love most every genre of music. But in most modern music of 20th century was born of the blues. Never in my wildest imagination did I ever think this song would become a reaction but you not only did it justice you gave it GRACE. Thank You! The light from your smile/soul would illuminate anyone's darkest day. It does mine every time I chance by!!!

Saw him in Pittsburgh many, many years ago - an absolutely amazing show.

Back in the day he was criticized as being a one trick pony, Play fast! But no heart no soul. But he just needed some age. He matured wonderfully!

Again!! Why have I not heard about Alvin Lee.....such a lovely blues song, heard so many but this is one of my favourite now....thanks for introducing yet another artist I have never heard before 👍👍👍

If you get the chance, check out “I’d Love To Change the World” that same group. We sang it as an anthem when it was first released and some of the “young ones” today are quite familiar with various covers of it without realizing how long ago it was written. It has timeless lyrics that we still need to hear today. Thoroughly enjoying your reactions. Thank you.

My gosh, one of greatest songs of our day. The vocals and guitar are on spot. This song really resonates his true heart felt emotions. Still brings tears to my eyes. Thanks for playing this classic again, loved it.

Alvin definetely in my top 10 of world best musicians ever.

I believe the drummer is Steve Grant. He performed this quite often with Alvin Lee.

Thanks....we needed that. Alvin Lee.... Been years....

Hey R R....the way you dissect and enjoy the recent reactions, gives me a better appreciation for what I have been listening to for decades...thanks !

Beautiful reaction to a beautiful song. Anyone who listens to this and feels nothing must be devoid of feelings entirely. RIP Alvin, thank you for all your wonderful music you left us with.

Wow so cool to see someone who gets the blues and an old blues master....saw him live once back in 1970

Thank you so much for bringing back so many great memories of Bristol colston hall in the 70a 80s,saw ten years after prob half dozen times back then,last time was night of the guitars in the 80s,much underrated and still loved by all my generation,sadly missed Alvin,one of the true British greats,RIO

You can feel the pain

Alvin one the Best so is George.Thanks for a great reaction. You looked like you enjoyed.Keep up the great reactions.

Thank you so much for this reaction. I haven't seen any reactions to Alvin or 10 Years After other than I'd Like To Change the World and that's is a shame. The other reactors are missing out on some great music. Alvin is one of favorite guitarist and much like David Gilmour can make you feel every note. Thanks again!!

Atmospheric classic from the late Alvin Lee.Did not know about this guy until I saw him on the Woodstock footage!

good for you ,it's good to listen to all kinds of music ,heals the soul

One of the greatest pieces of art ever recorded!!! A profound masterpiece!!!!

I so much love that song and kudos to George Harrison for that tasty slide guitar solo (he is so good at that). And for your genuine touch and softness you got a new subscriber. Very much like how you react, it's not frantic and over the top. Simple and fresh. Keep up reacting to cool songs (and don't hesitate trying songs that have not been reacted to a million times before already).

Never heard this song until today. WOW. Huge fan of Harrison. Touched on Ten Years After in the early 70's but then they slipped under my radar. Harrison's solo is exquisite. The song and Alvin's playing are amazing. How could you improve on either of those solos. impossible. RIP AL and GH

You make this so amazing -- you're feeling the blues as we listen, too, what a marvelous experience! Back in the day, we'd sit around listening to whole records, just immersed, and talk about them, too, as you do. This is so lovely, thank you for putting this up and grooving with us!

Gary Moore...."Still Got The Blues" live. Another masterful guitar player. He and Alvin Lee are 2 of the best in the business.

Alvin Lee is king!

Alvin once said he learned everything he needed to know about guitar playing from Scotty Moore who played for Elvis Presley.

The first concert I went to was in 1972 ten years after and zz top opened...i was a fan ever since...alvin Lee is The Man....please listen to Ten Years After Live....one of best live albums ever....luv your reaction to this number....thanks....

WOW, the last time I listened to 10 Years After was on the Woodstock LP. They were playing "I'm Going Home" and Alvin Lee was remarkable!!! Thanks for sharing!!! Loved that song.

Ah , what a beautiful 10 minutes !! Lovely to hear this masterpiece , and great to see your appreciation . Double win !! Thank you.

Saw Alvin Lee way back in the late 70s he was underrated as a guitarist.

Thank you for reacting to my favorite guitarist ! Grew up with his music in the 60's and it was fabulous to hear this unique talented artist perform ! I so happy that you have such a variety in your reactions ! This one was so unexpected and I loved your reaction ! Thank you thank you so so much appreciated ! You're the best and Alvin would have loved your reaction ! Beautiful to witness ! 🤗👍🇨🇦🇨🇦❤️❤️❤️

I saw Alvin in the '70s, he was always one of favorites. Thanks for this

Alvin Lee has been one of my greatest influences to play the guitar..Not only was his versatility, speed, accuracy and clarity of sound legendary, but also as a composer he was a very humble person and (funny thing) the only one who accepted a watermelon from the public after his performance in Woodstock 69 .. RIP Alvin Lee . You rest among the Guitar Gods

Thank you for introducing me to this song-longtime fan of electric blues, but I did not know this one and have now played it about 50 times in the last 2 days!

Say what you want, You are a blues hound. Love your reaction to this classic.

So happy to see you like Alvin Lee's guitar. I remember buying this CD years ago, like 15 years ago in downtown Portland. I used to jam on this song on my guitar! His live performance at Woodstock is legendary!! I'm glad you like rock music, I owned 600 albums at one time. In the 90's.

Fantastic!! Love the blues and he does it brilliantly!! Thanks for this! 😊🌹

The first solo ... the guitar was gently weeping ...

Wow! What a great choice! Haven't heard this in forever. Love your reaction.

Wow..loved Alvin Lee and Ten Years After ...50 thousand miles beneath my brain, and the whole Crickle wood album....fantastic choice you played...thanks .

Thx , Pure deep Soul . Love it and your Reaction always great .💖

That's Alvin makin it cry like only Alvin can....

Another great talent thats been so under rated. First time i heard him was at woodstock, i was 14 yo

I have loved this song for so long, what perfect guitar, and in times of strife this song has loved me right back!!

Makes you feel the pain. That guitar is saying how could you hurt me!!!

Rxyce.... I'd listen to anything so long as you were presenting it... your smile your genuine emotion😘

There is a select group of bluesmen that stand out above any others, and Alvin Lee is a member of that group. A mesh of blues and soul that cannot be compared or duplicated.

Una de las mejores canciones de blues rock de todos los tiempos ,,y los dos solos de guitarra son historicos,,,plenitud de sentimiento,ejecución y técnica a raudales,,

I know when a song is good when I get goosebumps when the lyrics comes on. This was one of those songs. The guitar solo was amazing!!! Music isn't the same as it used to be and I'm not even old to say that. The lyrics wow

IAM HAPPY THAT YOU ENJOYED IT> MUSIC HAS NO CULTURAL BOUNDRIES< THIS SONG PIERCES MY SOUL AND COMFORTS MY HEART

I had the chance to see him live. He was great in concert. He was actually the opening act. and he was better than the Headliner . anyone that was at that concert still talks about how he was better than the headliner.

The album this was released and included the Ten Years After as back up . It is called Pure Blues and it is one of his very best albums; showcases his talent other than known talent as the fastest guitar player; about every song is exceptional. "Bluest Blues" is my favorite and you might really like " Outside My Window". Many versions of "I am going home" out there from his Woodstock cut, but his last album called the "Last Show" has a very nice cut as well. RIP Alvin.

I always loved the way he uses the tremolo gently in his guitar playing. and his slide is also soft but clear.. thanks for the reaction. i do think you would love the master of the guitar. "''steve vai" tender surrender live

Great Music and a beautiful host

You are a great listener. You have a sincere reaction and understand great musicianship

Somehow I missed this reaction when it first came out. Well done. I first heard this song about a year ago or so, unbelievable.
