- Another day, another Woodstock video. Thank you to our patron Bruce D for this AWESOME pick. If the Santana video was meant for drummers, this one was meant for guitarists. My god. That was so ahead of it's time, it's not even funny. It felt Who-ish at points but not at others. Absolute shred fest.

don't let the idiots get you down, dude
you're doing a great job
Concur. A certain segment of society gets off being assholes. ??? I don't get it. They don't HAVE to come here! 😂😂😂
What are you talking about? I've never seen a single negative comment here.
What would we do if we didn't have the haters
I am the asshole, the idiot, and the hater. I watch alot of reaction videos and there are certain videos that are the chopped versions and they get passed around to all the reactors which drives me mad and I finally snapped and took it out on this poor kid. The 2 most common videos is Ram Jams Black Betty which cuts out the whole guitar lead and Santana's Soul Sacrifice at Wood stock which cuts out MIcheal Shrives amazing drum solo. I also said in the same comment that this kid is doing a good job but he got offended and told me to pound sand. I still think he is a good kid and does a good job or should I say a better job after this full length video.🙂
@@dadmateryn8092I'm sure alot of us understand your meaning. Just keep it mind the reactors don't know if something is missing. I think most of them look for the video with the most views assuming it's the best performance.
Thank God they recorded Woodstock!
truth. So many real good bands. like real good. several that for whatever reason ( different record contract companies... ) weren't on the film. J. Winter, the band. Creedence..... booked as the first performer ( before R.H. ) but lost that spot due to traffic ' Sweetwater'
God had nothing to do with it. Hell, the hippies were hardly religious. No, Woodstock was filmed because it was a good business decision to do so.
They certainly didn't earn any money from the festival itself, so making a film was a potential way of earning back their investments.
true about the business, but there were 'religious hippies'. just not establishment type.@@SpaceCattttt
@@SpaceCatttttnot true a lot of hippies were very spiritual , imo
They called themselves Ten Years After because they formed then years after Elvis Presley came on the scene. This is what you call rock'n'roll.
Well that will do it.... good name.
That is incorrect. They picked the name from a book with that title, as Leo Lyons (the bassist) shares with us on his YT channel.
I wonder why the book was called Ten years after 🤔, maybe because it was written Ten years before the band 🤔
What condition you need woodstock was the greatest show ever happened because it was a new era. will never be allowed to happen again
The 1st shredder.
RIP Alvin. Thank You.
definitely a shredder for sure. What a legacy to leave behind. He should be more widely known among my generation and others. That was insane.
Don't let the Negative Nellies bring ya down Man. like they used to say at Woodstock.@@L33Reacts
You got that right🤘❤️
Alvin Lee's adrenaline-fueled vintage blues and Fifties rock and roll, featuring lightning-fast fretwork and a full-on blues-rocking experience, is old-school jammin' at its best. Songs like
Good morning, Little School Girl", "The Bluest Blues," "Turn Off The TV Blues', "Choo Choo Mama,' and "Rock and Roll Music To The World" are all amazing. He was one of the fastest
guitarists in the world. RIP ALVIN - Thanks for playing Ten Years After; we old Dawgs in our mid-70s were all fans of the band.
Bluest Blues. One of my favorite Alvin songs. Masterpiece!
I might be 70, but I’m 15 again when I hear this. Good to know that in 2024 it is being shared and appreciated. RIP Alvin Lee.
Ignore haters…as a 72 year old woman I cannot tell you how much I loved Alvin Lee. He is such an underrated musician. Do yourself a favor and listen to Bluest Blues by him. You will get chills.
Also, their version of Spoonful is on par with Cream.
Alvin Lee the most underrated guitarist in history!!!
Agree from a 70 year old. All the gteat albums in too short a career. RIP, MASTER LEE.
He's on the list of legends of guitar. RIP Mr. Lee
He wasn‘t underrated. What are you talking about?
@@HarryGuit Alvin lee is one of the greatest guitarists that nobody talks about. Like Roy Buchanan and some others.
@@HarryGuit Have you ever seen his name in any list of good guitar players???? He was one of the best but never mentioned... There are other examples such as YES... Never mentioned as one the great bands in the whole world!
Pete Townshend once said "it's hard for kids today musically, because everything's been done before" Having pioneered so much himself, he knew what he was talking about. Alvin set the bar few could imitate and that era will never be repeated. I'm a 79 year old who is bloody privileged to have been a young man then.
One of the best guitarists ever but underrated by most.
ALVIN was a gift from god. R.I.P. Cheers.🍉
I have long wondered how the bass player, Leo Lyons didn’t throw up or pass out or sustain some sort of injury. He’s fantastic.
Would have been cool to see him play with Angus Young
He was probably whacked lol
Back then it took talent and ability to be a musician. No technical tricks, overdubs, auto-tuning, or other tricks. Talent. What a concept.
I was there ,dead tired,but everyone woke up for this. Mesmerized.
No-one can complain this time Lee. The full performance!!!!
"The Bluest Blues" with Alvin Lee & George Harrison on guitars is fantastic.
In 1969-70 you couldn’t go a week with out discovering a new interesting band. It was a great time to be out discovering the world.
Hey Lee, how crazy is it when you realise your parents were cool once 😊
One of the greatest rock n roll guitar players of all time..and a super nice guy.
I met him a few times I can testify to that. Very humble man
I am glad you showed the longer version from Woodstock. I am 71 and while I was not there, I saw the movie when it came out. When this song came on, the entire theater was rocking.
"I'd Love to Change the World" was their big hit, and it's amazing enough to be on your channel, Lee!
I saw Ten Years After about ten years after Woodstock and they were still smoking hot.
Probably the most underrated and overlooked bands from that era Alvin lee is the same as a guitar player,singer,and songwriter.
Alvin Lee, wonderful guitarist.
That is the ONE that many people don't play. They end up with the shorter edited version and miss all this. When Alvin Lee was introducing the song many people think that the song was written by "helicopter". That was an inside joke because the roads were blocked by thousands of abandoned cars and the only way groups were getting to the event was by helicopter. I was on the west coast and working after 4 years in the Navy when Woodstock happened. Good to hear this I'm now 78 years old and this takes me back. This is pure Rock 'n Roll!
Alvin Lee and Ten Years After!!After all these years, still can't be beat! Mesmerizing!
Cricklewood Green and Space in Time, favorite albums by Ten Years After
Sssshhhhh
The song that put me off of Ten Years After for years...
Listen to Cricklewood Green, no showing off..Just great songs played by a great guitarist...
His playing is incredibly fast and clean, amazing
Actually it was quite warm that day they played - around 30°C ... but the heavy rain cooled it down a lot and TYA performed this around 10 pm, when it was already dark. It might be around 3-5°C, which is actually cooler than my fridge and my beer! :) Great performance as most of the Woodstock Festival! My mom was there and has only good memories (< not that much, because of ...), but ... yeah! *luv&peas! The entire festival was legendary! ♥ There is so much more to explore from Woodstock'69.
Alvin Lee played at lightning speed!
These performers were defining rock-'n'-roll.
Yes, apart from this being a great chunk of rock'n'roll, I love the sense of dedication and absolute passion that fills every moment of the performance. It just radiates passion; Alvin is playing and singing like he can't stop, like he is aiming to unleash a power much greater than himself. The music is flowing through him.
You need to react to I'd love to change the world by Ten Years After also react to fixing to die rag by Country Joe and the Fish live at Woodstock
Alvin Lee always gave 1000 percent onstage!
I met Ten Years After at the Fillmore East... Alvin Lee was a truly warm, caring, and humble man. I've never heard anyone have a bad impression of him. RIP
I also met and talked with him a few times , I concur.
Count the number of great early R&B, Rock & Roll artist he featured and yet made it his own. Sooo much talent, we had sooo much talent.
Woodstock was one big tripping experience. 😊
I rode my 1967 Triumph Bonneville from Pittsburgh to Woodstock. They actually changed the location and I got lost. No Interstates back then, so all secondary roads. It was an experience to say the least. In many ways almost a disaster zone. The NY Governor declared it one!
To top that off, three months later I got drafted....
I was 15 in 1969. Never made it to Woodstock as I lived too far away and a bit too young.
Another amazing performance! Growing up in the 60's and 70's we had the most amazing music and were spoiled for choice.
You are doing a great job! Looking forward to you getting back to more Rush.
Cheers
Me too!
I'm glad I grew up with this fantastic music. 👍🙋♀️
Blues had a baby they called rock n roll. That was one of the best performances at Woodstock , even more impressive is this unrehearsed !
10:46 - the expression when you realize you are listening to pure greatness
I love how you say "1969!!!!" What would be surprising is if someone could to this now.
Killing it in front of a half a million people
Epic!!! ❤
Im 55 years old , when i was 17 and a total metal head my old boss turned me on to Ten years after - i was totally blown away 👍👍
Love Alvin Lee. Never got the notoriety he deserved but he wasn't in it to be rich, he loved the music. He was shredding way before it was a thing Often considered at the time as the fastest in the West. And he kept playing until his last days at 68. RIP Alvin, you done your thing.
When I was a kid, Alvin Lee and Ten Years After was my favorite band. Alvin was a monster on guitar.
RIP Alvin
Saw them once in the early 70´s, a great band. Leo Lyons on the bass was just superb.
Just subbed kid, how can you possibly know things that my 45 year old daughter doesn't know. Got to Alvin in the mid 80's at a small venue, maybe 300 people, the finale was this song, same guitar. One of the best blues guitarist I've seen.
Listen to his latest solo stuff I keep telling everybody this. Alvin can play everything!
Look out babe, I'm coming to get you, one more time...........awesome.
Alvin Lee and Leo Lyons, on bass, were a combination not easy to believe without seeing them. Saw them at the Fillmore East, right around the time of Woodstock. Great band, as exhilarating a show as one could imagine.
They were amazing in concert! I was lucky enough to have seen them in person. And, yes, the bass is insane. "Good Morning, Little Schoolgirl" is another good one.
Saw them in St. Louis in 1971, great show till a riot broke out when they started playing this. This songs one of the reasons I saw it at the drive in 14 nights in a row when the movie came out. All for free, I knew the guy in the box office. RIP Alvin, thanks man. Jim
The late Alvin Lee was an un derrated top 10 guitarist in my opinion.Go down the 10 Years After rabbit hole you wont be disappointed.😅
Alvin is in my top 5 of guitar gods ! Too bad more people haven't heard of them !
I saw ten years after live with Santana. It was great seeing Alvin Lee and Carlos Santana on the stage together.
I've actually really been getting into this band lately, the song 50,000 Miles Beneath My Brain is amazing, Hard Monkeys is fun, too.
50000 miles beneath my brain. Just a chord changes in the background album was on
Thanks for playing the unedited version.
They were an English band. RIP Alvin Lee († 2013) - one of the fastest guitarists. Very popular Live album = Recorded Live. I love their album "Rock & Roll Music To The World"
I've been lucky to meet Alvin Lee in a bar in Brussels in the early nineties, after a concert in town - totally down-to-earth guy, no star syndrom at all. Lovely fellow 👍
I met him twice and agree totally!
guitar by the late great ( very under rated ) Alvin Lee !
For the "Singer" video from Woodstock, check out Joe Cocker's cover of "Get By With a Little Help From My Friends".
"Like blues and hard rock had a baby" love that!!
I remember my 15 year old sister back then was in love with Alvin Lee, the lead guitarist. He sure knew how to play that instrument.
John, many of us were in love with Alvin Lee. RIP, Alvin; he was amazing!
I have to say that I love the look on your face hearing Alvin Lee for the first time!! That expression says it all like "is this for fucking real?!?!" It is baby, it is.
I bet you’ve heard “ I’d love to change the World” you’ll recognize it once it starts👍🏻
I saw Ten Years After several times in the late 60's early 70's at festivals in the U.K. & at concerts, they were always great live. Their "Love Like a Man" is also great. Keep doin' what you do Lee, you are appreciated. Maybe check out the studio versions too for more clarity.
I was 19 in 1969. It truly was a time like no other. The music that surrounded us is still listened to and appreciated today, over half a century later. I suspect it will still be enjoyed in another 50 years.
This performance turned me on to him and TYA. Saw him solo in NYC 1979. Tremendous.
Ten Years After - great band, be sure to listen to more from them. Alvin Lee, the man - was fortunate to get to see him play, one of the best !!
I was 17 in 69 living in Toronto. Woodstock happened before I heard about it. But my buds and I sure saw the movie as soon as it came out. Hit the theatre on acid and sat in the front row. Smoking was happening in movies then and we did hash in small pipes & tokes so that it wasn't noticed. It was so good to be born in the 50's and have music explode all around us.
Ten Years After had one of the best performances at Woodstock. Alvin Lee was amazing on lead guitar...
Alvin Lee, one of the greatest guitarists of the Golden Era of Rock ... when the best guitarists of all time ruled the stages of the world. Sadly his name is seldom among those listed as being a true great, but he was without question one of the greatest of the greats.
He played every blues musician and songs in one. He went Link Ray for a moment. He also seemed to have broke a few strings by the end! 😅 what a performance ALVIN LEE!!! ❤🎉😊
Glad to see you chose the long version for us; the slobbering, foaming and flying sweat only adds to it. Quite a transformation he goes through over the course of a few minutes; from "normal" rocker at the start to Raging Demon at the end. Legend has it the only reason he stopped is bc his machine was catching fire (and the pianist had passed out). I need a toke.
I had the pleasure of seeing Ten Years After at the Legendary Marquee Club on Wardour Street when I was seventeen. We had so many great bands to see around then I was blessed. I still have and listen to Stonedhenge I hear you calling is still my favourite TYA song.
Thank you for playing the whole cut. You just don't get the whole feeling from the 'clipped' versions of this performance. This was the closing number after a two-hour performance. I'm always amazed at Alvin Lee's accuracy of playing - no matter how fast - and the bass player is just amazing. One of my favorite live performances.
Alvin Lee on guitar. I saw The Alvin Lee Band open for Black Sabbath in 1981 & Alvin was still playing that same guitar, & he ended the show with this song & it was as great as ever.
My favorite guitar player seen him in concert 3 times
ALVIN LEE is one of the great guitar players of the 70s. The band kick-ass. Alvin Lee is a blues - soul - rock guirtist. LEO LYONS on bass,RIC LEE on drums, and CHICK CHURCHILL on keyboards.
With all the great acts and performances at Woodstock this one stole the show
I like your videos it’s nice to see an intelligent young dudes take on our great generations music.. thanks!
Got me 1st time i heard it in '70 and still today
That is the definition of rock and roll.
10:34 ~ A minute or two of some of the greatest licks on a guitar ever played.
Into the stratosphere.
Hey Brother, just you do what you do.These punks have nothing better to do than try and bust in you.Keep Rocking dude. 🥁☮☘
72, grew up during that era. Great time. Great reaction. Peace out.
My first concert was Humble Pie (with Frampton) and Ten Years after. Tremendous show.
If someone ever asks to hear a jam from the end of the 1960s, this will do nicely! 😊
This is actually a medley of 50's and 60's blues and rock and roll songs.
Outdoors, live, no auto tune or studio "magic".... now that's talent!!
Alvin Lee is a guitar monster. You should get the movie, Woodstock The Directors Cut, and watch it.
You're right about live performances not being like that anymore, Lee. This was on the edge, taking chances, with total commitment to the moment. I haven't seen anything like this since the 70s.
Alvin Lee...absolutely one of the GOAT guitarists. Thanks for doing this one, but especially for your appreciation of music in general. As always, rock on!
He'd Love To Change The World.... and he did! Awesome.
I got turned on to Ten Years After by a slightly older friend when I would hang out at their place sometimes in junior high. And ultimately, within a year or so I became obsessed with them, I was so in love with it.
I initially bought their A Space In Time album, which became iconic. How many times have I seen them sitting in a field of tall green grass on the cover of a record album in somebody's place; everybody seemed to have it. And yet by then it was already 6 years old I think.
Then I worked my way forward and backward from there, and I just loved everything I heard.
I think you would really really dig their massive hit from the early seventies, I'd Love to Change the World. It's just one of those amazing gems that just cuts across all boundaries. It was so incredibly popular and on the radio constantly and we always played it on records whenever we could. I bet you would really have a great reaction, and I would definitely go for the audio track, since that's what we all heard and that's what we all played on the records, and for the time, the production on that thing is fantastic and it was mostly Alvin Lee and another guy. And by the way all four of those guys had played together for years and years including almost more jazz type stuff early and they've always been so good. And it seems like on some of the older stuff, you actually get more of a sense of the chops of the drums and bass and piano, but they are always evident all the time. Those guys were so amazingly tight together.
Alvin Lee my man glad the newgen hears him this was & is epic im 79 LOVE me some Alvin Lee
Actually an odd twist to Woodstock was Sha Na Na, who did an early rock n roll retro act. A decade later, they had a tv show at the height of the Disco era, another odd twist. Fun times.
Martin Scorcese was assistant director and an editor on Woodstock. He was very young
Corky Laing -- best known as drummer for MOUNTAIN and WEST, BRUCE AND LAING -- received a gold record for this song, even though he wasn't at Woodstock. The story is that the drum mics on Ric Lee's drums malfunctioned and the producers of the film, WOODSTOCK, approached Corky to dub in drums onto the soundtrack. Laing wasn't even aware he was eligible for a gold record for his work until it arrived at his door. Even odder, he also received a gold record for the song FOR YASGER'S FARM performed by Leslie West/Mountain (prior to Corky joining MOUNTAIN). Seems Felix Pappalardi took a song Corky has co-written, tweaked it into FOR YASGER'S FARM, and Corky received a second unexpected gold record as co-writer of the song.
Mountain (and Corky) did indeed play a set at Woodstock. Though they weren't on the first album, there is a second Woodstock album that has Mountain on it. "For Yasgur's Farm" is on the first "Mountain" album (as is Corky), not Leslie's solo album named "Mountain."
@@Joeh1154 Yes, MOUNTAIN that appeared at Woodstock is an uncertain version of the band because N. D. SMART III was playing drums, Laing had not joined yet. The original version of FOR YASGUR'S FARM was from Corky's previous band, ENERGY: "Energy consisted of George Gardos (bass and vocals), Gary Ship (lead vocals, organ and electronic piano), and Corky (drums and vocals). By this time, the guys were writing a lot of their own material and Energy was starting to get recognized in the NYC music scene also. They recorded an album with Felix Pappalardi producing, but in the turmoil of Corky leaving the band to join Mountain, those tracks were lost.* The search for them goes on to this day. The only recording of Energy is from a live show in Nantucket at the end of the summer of 1969. The gig was recorded on a reel-to-reel tape.** While the quality of these recordings is not great, they have considerable historical value as they include versions of “Mississippi Queen” and “For Yasgur’s Farm” before those became Mountain songs***. “For Yasgur’s Farm” was originally called “Who Am I But You and the Sun”, but to honor the farmer who allowed his land to be used for the Woodstock Festival, Felix changed the name of the song."
@@Joeh1154 Corky Laing did not play at Woodstock. This story has been well documented by Corky for quite a while now.
ALL of their music is great, but "Cricklewood Green", "A Space In Time", and "Rock and Roll Music To The World" are the quintessential TYA albums to listen to.
I was there about 50 yards from the stage getting off on acid. The lighting made it surreal as 10 Years After took me to another dimension.
Very cool to see a young Man listening to TYA. I was 13 in 1969 and although I didn't get to Woodstock, My older Sister took me to the premiere of the movie and it just blew my mind. A slight correction though...While Alvin Lee was playing some killer riffs here, the guitar video from Woodstock would be Jimi Hendrix playing the Star Spangled Banner which is shown toward the end of this movie, IMO. Keep it going my friend. Best to all.
Got to see them twice in Miami in late 60's. Always great.
Love your reactions! Alvin was a monster! He was good friends with George Harrison and George does a nifty solo on Alvin's The Bluest Blues. Check it out!
16yr old me went to see Alvin Lee in Chicago.
Came out with same guitar.
Base player had a wild double neck bass.
This song was great.
But later the bass solo was so memorable that I can still remember it.
