  • Alvin Lee - Hey Joe 1979
    Hey Joe, where you goin' with that gun of your hand
    Hey Joe, I said where you goin' with that gun in your hand, oh
    I'm goin' down to shoot my old lady
    You know I caught her messin' 'round with another man
    You know I caught her messin' 'round with another man
    Huh! and that ain't cool
    Hey hoe, I heard you shot your wowan down
    Hey hoe, I heard you shot your wowan down
    Yes, I did, I shot
    ....
    Yes I did I shot her
    ....
    (Instrumental)
    Hey Joe,
    Where you gonna run to
    ....
    ....
    (Instrumental)

    I was listening recently to some of TEN YEARS AFTER’S earlier albums, and was incredibly impressed at the high level of musicianship each band member possessed, especially ALVIN LEE. Could that man play!!! It STILL amazes me how he never seemed to get the respect he so deserved as a guitarist. No one could touch Alvin... He could smoke some of the best right off the stage playing just ONE note, he was that good!

    One of the biggest surprises to come out of the Woodstock festival - TYA just blew us away. Alvin Lee must have been born in the middle of a lightening storm on a dark and bluesy night - 'cause he had the blues and the power in every inch of his body. He died way, way, way too soon.

    remember seeing ten years after at the spectrum (philly) around holloween 1971. a female fan sprayed alvin with crazy string and started yelling "you're gonna pay for this alvin". Mr. lee stopped playing while pulling crazy string off of himself as his guitar spewed feedback. Thought the show was over, fan removed ,feedback ceased and the show went on.

    Hey people- This song wasn't written by Jimi. It was registered for copyright by a folk singer from California named Billy Roberts in 1962. People believe Hendrix wrote the song because he was the first person to introduce it on a great album. This being the North American edition of Are You Experienced. Hendrix gives credit to Roberts for writing the song. It also doesn't hurt that it is one of ( if not the) best versions around depending on who you talk to.

      +Don DoRondo -Just saw your reply today. Yes the leaves attended some byrds concerts and heard "Hey Joe" played there. They recorded three versions with the 3rd actually reaching the charts so it must have had some zing. Roberts copyrighted version still pre-dates all others.

    I have been into Rock music since I was just a kid during the '60s. Sometimes, something is a part of your life so long and you get so used to hearing the names associated with whatever it is, that you don't think about the association ending. Many, many Rock musicians have died in many different ways, since I was a kid, teenager and adult. But I have a few that I think about often. Marc Bolan(T Rex), Johnny Thunder(NYDolls), Tommy Bolin, and Glen Buxton(Alice Cooper). But the most recent, that really hit home, were Lonesome Dave Peverett , Rod Price(Foghat), Peter Steele(Type O Negative) and most of all Alvin Lee. I was so sorry that surgery in Spain cost him his life. Alvin Lee was a GUITAR MASTER, who's style, sound and approach to Rock and Blues, set him apart. I was familiar with his performance, with Ten Years After, at Woodstock, and some of the cuts from albums, but my Mom gave me 'Rock and Roll Music To The World' on my 15 birthday, the first TYA album in my collection. That was a great album, and then I saw Alvin Lee and Company in the last half of the '70s. The man had a lot of guitar work left in him. What a loss!

PS: My 1st TYA Show w/ ZZ Top Opening @ MSG on 5/13/74, I sat in Row # 2 (Up Close and Personal) where Both Alvin and Leo were Awesome. What a Pair!!!

    The great Mick Hawksworth (RIP) on bass...during the early 70's he played with John Du Cann in Andromeda, and a short while later in Fuzzy Duck. Fans of early 70's UK hard rock might be familiar with those bands. The drummer is Tom Compton, who would later play with Johnny Winter during the 1980's-90's-00's.
