Grande entre los grandes. El señor Alvin Lee✌️🤟

70s: was a frequency of music: freedom: we were all so blessed !! Never happen again:

He was pretty ripped and still played it!

yES 100 X 100%

They were Tight

THAT'S HIS JOB , TO KEEP THE BEAT !

The bass player was killing it too! 💓

Learned it by putting the record on 16

I saw him in a club in '83 and he and his were specTACular !n fact, he played 2! sets that night and BOTH were spectacular !

I saw him in Scarborough Maine 77 or 78. He was my favorite growing up.

No musicians. Kids are dumb

Ten Years After is my favorite Blues Rock group of ALL TIME. Alvin Lee my favorite guitarist of ALL TIME. I was fortunate enough to c the original Ten Years After 6 times and Alvin 4 times without Ten Years After. The first time I saw them was on April 4th 1970 at the Capitol Theater in Portchester NY. Scott Muni the Legendary DJ for WNEW-FM introduced them. He was telling us of their performance at WOODSTOCK and go c the movie. But this line I'll never forget. "AND HERE THEY ARE THE GROUP THAT TORE UP WOODSTOCK TEN YEARS AFTER". At 18 that made a big IMPRESSION ON ME. They opened up with Love Like A Man. Finished with I'm Going Home. Then for their encore did the best version of Sweet Little Sixteen. It is to this day a night I'll never forget. The best version of Help Me is from the album Live At The Fillmore East from 1970.

Loved Alvin too. Give a listen to Alvin Lee's "Bluest Blues" featuring his future bandmate George Harrison. Masterpiece.

How did you not fall for the bass player in that Woodstock set? Looked like he was playing for his life. Ten Years After definitely one of my favorite bands back then and Alvin Lee is the reason I started using head. Didn’t have to hear ‘TURN THAT DOWN’ from my mom.

​@@kge420Right on sister

No way he hits every note ... Lol. I'm listening and he don't. And I love it. Almost human thank God

FAST AND GREAT 👍

How do you think Eric Clapton got the name slow hand?

They did steal the show and then someone probably stole their money.

Well, there was Jimi. But ya cant mention Jimi, Clapton, etc. without mentioning Alvin. Yes, I know Clapton didnt play at Woodstock

Did he always play a double neck bass? That thing must have weighed a ton

The took the song of the original artist, the Hellacopters and made it a worldwide hit.

I was 16 when I gave him a bunch of flowers on the stage after a concert in Darmstadt, Germany. He gave me a hug and I did not wash for a whole week!

I was there also at Bethel with my good friend Steve and we are still best friends and reminisce about Woodstock often. Going Home with Alvin and Ten Years After is certainly one of the iconic songs of the Festival. We were 18 years old and the memories still last our lifetime!

Seen him n he rocked my world ❤

❤❤❤

One of the best indeed!!!!

cool

@@tadeuszwozniak609 boa dia ! meu amigo toda familia grato, em ler minha poesia meu livro arte e poesia em breve na editora autografia.com.br/publique feliz dia das maes.....

Si... En calidad musical, en el sonido, un cantante mas maduro, afinado y sobretodo rítmicamente mucho mejor, pero el otro fue mas mediático.

I still prefer Alvin Lee & 10y after

100+++++++++1000

I was also privileged to see them live. Amazing

I'm sure that was a great memory for you. Keep On Rocking

Que suerte..que envidia!!!!!!!

Hola Vivian demasiado espectacular que hayas conocido a Alvin Lee. Yo toda la vida lo he querido un montón y ni te imaginas amiga cuánto he lamentado que se gata ido sin haberlo conocido....sinembargo siempre está presente en mi vida❤

I was that close to him when I seen them early 70's.

It's a medley of some songs of the 50ies

I agree with you.

We definitely were musically blessed growing up.

I know, I am approaching 74 in 2022. Saw TWA at the Albert Hall in London I think 1968 ish. Supported by a band called 'Clouds' Then I was at the 1970 IOW festival for 5 days. TYA were top band on Sat. evening. I have something that the kids today could only dream of! The poor sods think oasis & take that have talent.

I agree that the music mostly was better but to tell the truth the rock & roll bands played a lot of covers and mostly from southern blues or folk songs, today most rock & roll bands write and arrange all there songs themselves alot even doing most of the producing and engineering of course today's artist have more freedom compared to past artist that being said this is still my favorite generation of music Alvin Lee is a beast

Totally agree

Greetings form weert a southern country of the netherlands smoking weed stay healthy music lover

Same here

Alvin did not hold anything back. He just went for it. Saw him in the Alvin Lee Band with Mick Taylor in a Champaign Illinois music/bar in the 80's. Nice joint. Also saw Kim Simmons and Savoy Brown there. I somehow missed Leslie West and Mountain. My bad.

@@edhorton2766 True

​@@edhorton2766😂😂

3000-TIMES & MUCH MORE

Великолепно. Гений.

Neighbors called the police. Said I was playing "10 y a" too loud. Police arrested the neighbors.

Improved mine quite a bit. Love that my generation’s music was the best❣️

@@pcpete911 - coolest comment ever😂👍

Winterland All the Greats played there among other long gone venues! ... So Blessed with growing up in SanFrancisco with SanFrancisco Music Nothing like it anywhere else in the entire musical world!!!!🎶💚🎶🗝🎶💚🎶👀🗝🧝‍♂️🌲🧝‍♂️

Bien sur vitales pour la suite 49 3

Esttr grupo es de los 60

I'm with you Brother. We grew up in some very different times. So many Great Rock Bands Hard To Keep Up With Them!! Then. All The Baddest Coolest Ol Muscle And Classic Cars. Then. Something on a Totally Different Level. So Many Drugs. Prescription Drugs. Street Drugs. Drugs Here Drugs There and Freakin Drugs Everywhere. If You Were Fortunate Enough To Skated Through Without At Least Experimenti. Consider Your Self Extremely Blessed. I'm s Walking Talking Miracle Cause God Spared My Life So Many Times I Can't Begin To Count Them. And My Dear Godly Mother Praying Countless Prayers!!! Thank you Dear Lord!!!

Equal as... Lory Gallagher ..the same league .

I was thinking the same, way fast

Back in the day when I was in high school (graduated 70) Alvin Lee, Frank Zappa and Johnny Winters were my top guys as far a speed goes. But Hendrix? Another story and of course there was Jimmy Page.

I think Les Paul might have argued that point!

Torbjørn Anderson some farken monster bass players came out of the UK during that era!

There's that underrated comment again. If he was so underrated then why has he sold millions of records?

@@gogoyubari366 it's simple: how often do you hear Alvin's name mentioned when people talk about great blues and rock guitarists? You hear Jimi Hendrix, Eric Clapton, Jimmy Page, Jeff Beck, Stevie Ray, but you rarely hear Alvin's name. He and Rory Gallagher should be the first mentioned when people talk about amazing guitarists

@@RoryGFan-39 you have to add Johnny Winter

@@RoryGFan-39 but you dont hear Buggs Henderson and JJ kale either despite the fact they were great. It comes down to how many popular pieces of music they put out, and despite a very long career and a great deal of talent most people dont recall Creeklewood green. They remember soliet green but not Cricklewood. And bands that were on their heyday in the early 70s, unless they made the midnight special, or Don Kirshners rock concert there is likely very little video and video keeps you relevant much longer than audio only.

Càctus@@robertamcelwain1448

3 piece bands are the shit.

@@happydazeharvick4399 Cream, ZZ Top are perfect examples. Too many egos to deal with. Two other egos are my limit. '

OUTRAGEOUS, Brother. I was on the other coast, and saw many shows, many groups. Great memories .... yeah!

How awesome! I wish I could have seen these guys I downloaded this live album and it's pretty much what's been playing in my car for almost two years

My favorite act at Woodstock too! Alvin means every note he plays. Passion pouring from him. Gives me chills.

Yes, I!

Damn- I COULDN'T AGREE MORE!!!

Totally agree!!! Sly and Family Stone also put on a great show. "I want to take you higher" is my second Woodstock favorite.

and walks off the Stage with a Juicy Watermelon like the Fat Rockin' Grooves, they Jammed out.

In my little click, he was The Best. I've always loved Alvin Lee & TYA!! RIP guitar man. You were amazing!!!

Crappy management and a very weak label. He was as good a guitarist as it gets in rock or blues. TYA "Recorded Live" ia Top 5 Live LP of all time..

@@jaysantos536 Well, it is so odd that Alvin Lee never or rarely mentioned as one of the guitar greats.

@@dr.barrycohn5461 He is by other guitarists and that's what matters, not some goofy magazine like Rolling Stone or the idiots that run the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. Same with Rory Gallagher. Everybody has heard of Brian May and what a great guitarist, he is right? Well guess who was his PRIMARY guitar idol growing up? Rory freaking Gallagher...

@@jaysantos536 Good point.

​@@dr.barrycohn5461❤❤

Top

Fuck that. "Shredding"? It ain't mindless metal crap, Alvin Lee played guitar and many before him did as well. Broaden your horizons.

Good on ya Cyndy.

Yes thats right Alvin Lee is the One and Only for all times R.I.P.

bakio

I saw the movie back in the day wood stock I thought this song stole the show .

Neighbors called the police. Said I was playing "10 y a" too loud. Police arrested the neighbors.

😆😆 I thought the same thing right before I read this.

Hoy en dia las generaciones NO SABEN NADA DE MUSICA.MENOS LA VALORARAN.

Legend!!!! 😂😂😂😂

Mi época de Colegio,,, genial....

semper fi

qua patet orbis

that´s right one of the greatest thanks Ten Years After with the one and only Alvin Lee R.I.P.

Hardly

the poor man's Ted Nugent

im 67 and still cant believe what i hear sometimes....HELP ME..at the fillmore 1970....talk about endurance!!!

Ten years later is the zombie version

First ten years after then became ten years later then Alvin Lee went solo

Late 80s A.Lee/10 years later with Black Sabbath/Mob Rules one of the best overall concerts I've ever been too

@Chief Big Bob dam skippy. ... And no didn't.
