A true testament to the power grace and fire of Alvin Lee in all his glory loud blazing and heartfelt a moment and magical time now crystallized in our hearts forevermore
"Here's a bit of culture for you" the late great Alvin Lee says. And then what a blast of a jam session those TYA guys get into right there on stage!! I have this on vinyl LP and listening to this again after all these years brings back such memories of those long ago days. Thanks for posting this.
My parents had this lp so I picked it up in 1976 when I was in high school and discovered Cactus, also love the JW And version of Mean Mistreator even if it is probably heavily edited, The beautiful film footage of Ten Years After I Can't Keep From Crying is unfortunately heavily edited from the 19 minute lp version and I have just found here on RUclips a few seconds of Cactus video!! so they were filmed too, don't know if they will ever release all this video footage, maybe long after we all kick the bucket.
Yep, I really find the heavily-edited version of the Ten Years After song unlistenable after growing up on the longer version on this album. I can't keep from crying every time I hear either version though -- for separate reasons.😉
I'm from Detroit (blow the reveille)! For all you _'wanna-be-a-Rock-Star'_ guitar players out there; There is actually a very easy song to copy within the core of this AMAZING display by Alvin. The 'core' is just a Blues shuffle in 'A'. You can improvise on your own from there. For music fans who want to know more about what Mr. Lee was actually playing here; Find my (3-yr. old) string somewhere else in this Comment section. (IMHO) This was a monumentally *HISTORIC* moment for Music! _"Hendrix-still-better."_ (but not by much) **ROX ON!** - Dave B.
Era un niño y fue mi héroe. Cuando un niño de once años podía estar 10 minutos concentrado en algo, musical literatura. Que épocas. Imaginen ahora un tema de más de dos minutos. No lo escucha nadie.
The 2 songs on this video are NOT from the 1970 Pop Festival. They are from the 1970 Isle of Wight Festival and are taken from a 3-LP set of music from both festivals. This is clearly stated on the back cover of the LP.
I'm from Detroit (blow the reveille)! At 9:25 he starts 'doing riffs' from other guitarists. Toward the end he does 'Sunshine of Your Love'. And he finishes his 'tribute-medley' with 'Foxy Lady'. Can anyone identify who he's channeling on the rest? I think one of them is a Yardbirds tune w/Jeff Beck. Another might be Peter Green. Any ideas? - Dave B.
Great question! The first riff is (I think) from the old blues "You Don't Love Me" by Willie Cobb. Most famous version is the Allman Brothers Live at Fillmore. ruclips.net/video/0wsUNMSiIII/видео.html At about 9:50 (I think) he quotes the opening of Carry On by CSNY. ruclips.net/video/BAkMlzOBFbc/видео.html Not sure about anything else but you're right about Hendrix.
Thanks for the help (from this, & other sources). Definitely getting closer. *To clarify:* The R&R 'Guitar God' concept had been building for a couple of years. And, Alvin considered himself a member of that exclusive club. I believe he was _'channeling'_ a few people he considered his contemporaries. 00.22-01:17: "Here's a bit of culture ...."/ classical riffing. 01:17-02:07: that 'scat' thing. 02:07: The song (proper) begins. 04:10-08:01: He leaves the song (proper) and begins solo riffing. (Just 'Alvin-solos'?) 08:01-09:05:'plinking-notes' high on the neck. 09:05-09:25:'sliding-chords' high on the neck. 09:25-09:35(1): 'You Don't Love Me' (Duane Allman-Allman Brothers) 09:35-09:48(2): 'Steppin' Out' (Eric Clapton-Bluesbreakers) 09:48-09:58(3): 'Cat's Squirrel' (Eric Clapton-Cream?) or ('Carry On'-Stephen Stills-CSNY?) 09:58-10;18(4): 'Sunshine of Your Love' (Eric Clapton-Cream) 10:18-10:25(5): ????? 10:25-10:42(6): 'Foxy Lady' (Jimi Hendrix) *So, it breaks down like this:* 1-Allman 2-Clapton 3-Clapton? (or Stills?) 4-Clapton 5-????? 6-Hendrix I still can't connect Jeff Beck or Peter Green to anything. I know Alvin was aware of them. Some others, like Jimmy Page, Carlos Santana, Rory Gallagher, Johnny Winter, Richie Blackmore, etc. were still considered 'newbies' on the scene in 1970 (fair or not). #5 is _S-O-o-o_ familiar to me. But, I can't I.D. it. -Dave B.
jello biafra, just before 'sunshine of your love' alvin lee is playing 'cat's squirrel' by doctor ross,cream and jethro tull recorded this as an instrumental on their first albums(fresh cream and this was).
I used to play this to Death, in the early 70's..brings back knockout memories, such a great guitarist was Mr.Lee!
I was going to write the same thing. Loved this and Woodstock I & II and 4 Way Street by CSN&Y

Great album
My favorite (out of many choices) Ten Years After song.
