    A Space in Time was one of my first own vinyls (after some Beatles) and I loved it.

    I was at this concert, one of the best bass, guitar jams ever and it is never mentioned, if you look when Alvin does like a kicking motion at about 3:10, he was kicking a pair of women's underwear that was thrown on stage, I remember it vividly, this was at Winterland in SF, CA. US, I was sitting in the balcony just about where Alvin's Guitar is pointing

    Maybe the greatest guitarist of the entire era of classic rock that nobody ever seems to talk about, and what a sad commentary that is. Alvin Lee was pure fireball in his fingertips and pure God-given talent in his approach. Alvin's tone was so unique because he did it without the use of foot pedals, wah-wah bars, fuzz boxes, or any of the other gimmicks of the day. Just pure ability and incredible, at times bordering on almost unbelievable finger speed. There's a reason that this late, great rocker carried the same 3 nicknames his entire career. "Captain Speedfingers", "Fastest Guitar In The West", and my personal favorite "The Man Who Played Faster Than His Shadow." Along with Stevie Ray Vaughan, Johnny Winter, Duane Allman, & Jimi Hendrix, Alvin Lee makes my top 5 all-time greatest guitarists 7 days a week and twice on Sunday!

    "Recorded Live" 2 LP is the best of Ten Years After. Song " Standing At The Station" is one of the greatest "jamming song" ever recorded!!!! Great band!!!

    Sadly I discovered Alvin Lee to late, so I never had the chance to see him live. Wish I could have. I just love the energy TYA had, especially Leo and Alvin, not something you see very often. It all comes straight out of the body/heart/brain, no scripts involved. But the band, all of them were great, sadly they broke up. Both Leo and Ric gave their view on the reason on youtube. I think Leo always kept a bit more love for Alvin, than Ric and Chick did, could very well be the reason why your father did not mention Alvin. Thanks for this video!

    TYA was one of my favorite "gangs" especially first 2 albums. saw them in NYC Central Park summer ocncerts A bit fuzzy on that one. But not on Fillmore East show. What a performance. Alvin shredding before shredding was a concept. Leo Lyons bonkers on Woodchoppers Ball. Help Me was the showstopper. Help Me can be done very fast ala Johnny Winter, medium ala Van, or slow like TYA. It went on seemingly forever like Ravel's Bolero with Alvin using mic stand as a slide. My fav guitarists mostly gone now, Jimi, Alvin, Rory,Duane. I wonder if the angels lend the boys some harpstrings. Gonna have a wee cry. night

      @@TheThamesmen they were a raucous bunch, Ric Lee wasn't the daintiest drummer. Chick got smothered except on things like I can't keep from crying. You are aware of the backstory of how Al Kooper played the intro to like a Rolling Stone? Before I was a guitar god know it all, I was an organ god know it all jazz Jimmy Smith, Jack McDuff and rock ie Felix Caviliere, Ray Manzarek BTW do you know why JS Bach had 17 kids?

    On my opinion Alvin lee embodies the skill, passion, the whole body mind immersion of a guitar 🎸 God. Hendrix just didn't do enough and after cream Clapton became a stiff, perfect guitar mannequin. Jimmy Page and Rory Gallagher were extraordinary but just don't elicit the same emotions for me.
