"said watch out baby, baby I'm coming home"

had an album way back (loaned out & duh!, never returned) - Alvin w/ a Mississippi gospel singer, Mylon. Had George Harrison, Winwood, some other rockers on it too.

don't remember a lot except I wore the grooves off it and it was good enough to be ripped off by a friend

bet some of you Arkies still have the vinyl...

Is this the same Alvin Lee in "Ten Years After"? Just curious. Oh, to answer your question, this Arkie doesn't have the vinyl, I've progressed to the cassette player.

One and the same.

Ditto Roger! I had the ' Ten Years After' album myself, and later athe cassette recording. Alvin Lee was in the same class with just a handfull of the very best guitar players of the late sixties and seventies, bar none. To qoute a phrase from earlier, country music hits, I ran a needle through B-56, when it came to this album, this artist, and band!
Sorry to hear this news, thanks Butch.

Best Regards

For all of you folks who know what we are talking about. It's only pertinent if you play or love or appreciate the music!

I looked for that video & couldn't find it - thanks Roger

forgot about that great split screen & Alvin walking off with that watermelon on his shoulder and a grin that kind of summed up what that era tried to be about

if I remember right the name Ten Years After referred to the progression music had gone thru during the decade after Buddy Holly's death - "Going Home" was a great homage to everyone from Berry & Didley to Hooker & Howlin Wolf

Lee was among the greats

Thanks to Amazon dot com, you boyz can relive those fun times when things were a lot simpler to deal with!

and, I just ordered one of those el cheapo gizmos that is supposed to easily convert cassettes (I got a box full of em) to CD just plug into USB port and let it rip. Remind me if I forget and I will post up how it works.

Alvin Lee could rock !!!!

This Arkie has on Ten Years After double album on vinly with Alvin Lee. I also have the man on Woodstock vinyl. I listened to the TYA album just a couple days ago, in tribute.
