Alvin Lee - RIP

[Midpack]

I like that. Can I steal I mean borrow that one? Reality for me is that my pile of dirt tends to be a lot higher before I stop digging.

You'll have to ask Denis, good luck, he was born in 1917...

Tis only a song of the 60s folks.

I never saw them (Ten Years After) but I did listen to them all the time. Gods he was good. Any lists of great guitar players has to include him in it. Of course there are so many fabulous ones.

So here is one so that some can read about him and his passing.

Good slow blues.

My first concert was Ten Years After in 1972 in Boston. Also saw him in the 80's playing with a backup band. And, coincidentally, I've been listening to tracks from "A Space In Time" recently..a great album.

He will be missed.

Heard the news last night on the radio and it felt like someone suckerpunched me in the gut.
I saw Ten Years After live with Edgar Winter for a backup. They were more polished and faster than at Woodstock. Probably the best concert I ever saw.
I have a few of the old albums: Cricklewood Green, Space In Time and another one. Perhaps it is time to break out the old record player.
