Alvin Lee,fantastic ripping guitarist and singer;
Mr.Lee was a huge influence on this Los Angeles guitarist Dale as a youth !!ich bin geschockt.Einer der besten Rock-Gitarristen überhaupt... Ten Years After toured the U.S. twenty-eight times in seven years more than any other UK band. Er spielte in Woodstock den Song:"I´m going home" mit einer Wahnsinnsgeschwindigkeit.War glaube ich auch eine zeitlang der schnellste Gitarrist der Welt. Er lieferte mit "Ten Years After" spektakuläre Liveauftritte ab. Tja - nun ging er wirklich home.Lieber Alvin "Grüß mir meine Idole im Musikerhimmel" Ruhe in Frieden. http://www.musicradar.com/news/guitars/ten-years-afters-alvin-lee-dies-571954 http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/entertainment-arts-21688814 http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alvin_Lee http://www.alvinlee.com/ Edited by DaleHauskins - March 06 2013 at 12:35 |

Seeing Ten Years After live was one damn big party! Alvin Lee was a great performer (and only Robin Trower made funnier faces while playing). When you say the words "Rock and Roll" that is what Alvin was playing.
Gone but not forgotten! |
