That guitar - Alvin Lee. 10 Years After was another of those Brit blues bands, but Lee was special. They tore it up at Woodstock.
I'D LOVE TO CHANGE THE WORLD is genius storytelling. It's a protest song, however it's told from the perspective of a rich, entitled man. He recognizes the woes of the world, but will not sacrifice his own money, time, or effort to solve them.
He's so focused on keeping what he's got, he can't truly empathize with, nor reach out a helping hand to his fellow man. A critique of hypocrisy that rings even truer today.
And DAMN, can Alvin Lee play that guitar.
Ten Years After was fronted by legendary guitarist Alvin Lee who handles the vocals as well. "Change the World" was released Aug. '71 on the A Space in Time album. They stole the show at the Woodstock Festival, the film and the subsequent live album made them superstars. My favorites are the rocking numbers - "Hear Me Calling" with it's nice boogie beat, "Bad Scene" and "Baby Let Me Rock and Roll You" two hard rocking numbers.
My personal favourites are good morning little school girl sugar the road positive vibrations
@@robertperry5832 Yes, when I added my post, I realized I'd forgotten Good Morning Little Schoolgirl. Great tune, as are the others.
Live Album in ‘73 out of control
@@Dirtyharry70585 Haven't thought of that one in years. I had a buddy who owned it and loved it. I need to give it a new listen.
My favorite rock blues group of ALL TIME. Alvin Lee my favorite guitarist of ALL TIME. Saw the Original TYA 6 times and Alvin 4 other times. Check out the double cd Live At The Fillmore East 1970. Their version of Help Me is the best I ever heard. A GREAT CD,every song is GREAT.
A key to listening to music from back then is to think of how it (the overall message) would be received in today's culture and then picture that same thing for us when it was on the radio all day. No iPhones, no computers, just radio and concerts - radio was everything to us. It was the catapult of many marches, protests, and movements. And the talent was a million deep too.
Hey biz, yes Alvin Lee is a wizard on that guitar must see is the Woodstock live performance. Song-I’m going home, rock ‘n’ roll history at its glory and definitely one of the GOATS of all time.
So happy to see you enjoyed this song. You have to remember when Alvin wrote this he was an idealistic kid. Pretty sure when he got older and amassed large sums of money he probable felt a bit differently about wealth redistribution. For me, the real message of this song is "I'd love to change the world, but I don't know what to do. So I'll leave it up to you".
Yeah, to me it's sort of reminiscent of The Who's, "I pick up my guitar and play, just like yesterday." Basically saying I know there's stuff happening, but it's beyond my pay grade, so I'll just keep on trucking
and then rethought the whole wealth thing when he got divorced for all those large sums of money and ended up in an apartment in Spain. RIP Alvin
All time classic tune. Great Groove, makes me want to puff freely.
TYA is one of my favorite bands. I got into them when I was 14 in 1969. Alvin Lee was an
awesome blues player and TYA has a lot of great songs. RIP Alvin
Alvin Lee is one of the greatest blues/rock guitarists of all time, and his band Ten Years After has to be one of the top three live performance bands that ever graced the earth.
This song is as relevant today as it was over 50 years ago.Things never change.
My man Biz hittin all the classics. 70s Rock and Roll 👍
Alvin Lee is one of the greatest guitarists to ever take a stage, for me an easy top 5
I hazard to say, that the lyrics are more relevant today, than ten years after the original release. Timeless song when music was music.
That song is pure genius.
listen very closely at the end of the song and you’ll hear Alvin faintly say “best of luck“
⚡️♥️🎸♥️⚡️
Great band.....Thanks Biz. Listen to these guys do I'm Going Home from Woodstock! Its insane!!!!
Beautiful-- chills allover.
RIP to the Great Alvin Lee! This song is so masterful! And the Woodstock performance will absolutely blow your mind!
Alvin Lee on vocals and that sick guitar solo. Check out the Bluest Blues by Alvin Lee 🔥
in the intro, you accidentally called them Ten Years Later. The band is actually Ten Years After.
However, Alvin Lee formed a band called Ten Years Later, which was a trio. They mostly played Ten Years After songs.
⚡️♥️🎸♥️⚡️
Alvin Lee is why I always say there is not "GOAT." He was one of the top "gunslingers" in classic rock. His performance of "I'm Going Home" at Woodstock was phenomenal.
Alvin Lee, Peter Frampton, Duane Allman, Dicky Betts, Jerry Garcia, Robin Trower, Kenny Wayne Shepherd, Jimi Hendrix, Stevie Ray Vaughan, Richie Blackmore, Jimmy Page, Prince, Frank Zappa, George Benton, Carlos Santana, Eric Liefson, and on and on and on. So many lGREAT guitar players that none truly deserves to be called "GOAT."
Truth.... I don't think Biz has heard any Rory Gallagher yet....
You got to check him out live, the man is phenomenal.
52 Years After….the world is better now in some ways, but is it better than it was during the 1960's/70's? In some important ways we had much more freedom back then. Besides this song is about distributing wealth among all folks so we are all equal and no one goes hungry. It was sort of a theme back in the day. Love and prosperity to all not just the 1%! Peace….
Saw this band in the 1970’s because of this song. I recall them being a one hit wonder. Still like this song, especially the guitar.
Definitely not a one hit wonder....check them out some more I think you'll like them....
Always a part of me this song. When it came out in the early 70s, I was 16. I was lucky to see Alvin Lee at the Celebrity Theater in Phoenix. He was touring calling the band Ten Years Later. They started as Ten Years After reflecting to the original. Phenomenal concert. Lee was a fantastic guitarist. Close up and perfect. 😊
One of best legend guitarist Alvin Lee...
10 yrs after have a great collection, " I'm going home', "woodchopper's ball', there's a lot of variety with Alvin's guitar doing its thing
As children, my generation would get smacked if we envied or coveted what someone else had. We were told to mind our own business. As for the freaks and hairies lines, well, it was 1972, and freedom of speech was a real thing.
That Guitar THO!
Alvin Lee is one of the Goats. So good!
Another great song thank you
This classic song only made it to #40 on the Billboard Hot 100 in 1971. Criminal!
Alvin Lee, lead singer. Gotta do " the bluest blues " 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Hittin' them out of the park lately, young man!
Alvin Lee (guitarist/singer) teamed up with Beatle George Harrison with, (in my opinion), the best blues rock tune ever made, called "The Bluest Blues". Ten Years After is a British blues rock band that played at Woodstock in 1969..
The tune lays it right out there...everything is still relevant today.
Jeff Lynne also was part of Traveling Wilburys
This time in music was the best
Mr. Alvin Lee. Is one of the best. Saw them in the 70’s , never thought I’d say this but I miss those Times.🎤👍🏽😎
Yep, dive on in. It’s worth it.
"Tax the rich, feed the poor" Amen! (I was a young man when this was released and up for the draft) We seem to be worse off today than then unfortunately.
one of the best pure hippy songs ever. never get syck of this one. GREAT choice (again).
That was fun, your pretty cool man
Sweet! Maybe try a cut from their album Cricklewood Green next.
“Sugar The Road”
Or
“Working on the Road”
Are both pretty cool
Love this song. Haunting. The time was revolutionary. Hippie culture.
Look Alvin Lee Bluest blues ,,, fantastic guitar solo
I agree with the understanding of how much does one need to have a happy and healthy life.
Great song I grew up with this song but I would have to agree the lyrics in first verse wouldn’t go over today, but I still love the song and would still listen to it today
If you like acoustics that much, you gotta listen to "from the beginning" by Emerson Lake and Polmer
Greg had a bunch of great acoustic-based cuts with ELP. My favorite is THE SAGE (from Pictures at an Exhibition)
Thanks for reacting to TYA Biz. Don't see many reactions to this great band. Please give "I'm Going Home" live from Woodstock and "Help Me" live a listen, both are awesome.
Alvin Lee was confused by communism vs the Free Enterprises System.
But he was not confused about how to play a guitar!
He and George Harrison were neighbors. George played on many of his tracks.
There is a radio interview with Alvin from back in the 90s from his home… the interviewer said he was surprised that Alvin wrote the line - “Tax the Rich…” because he earlier in the song questioned the sanity of gay people. Alvin asked him to read the part of the phrase - “ ‘till there are no rich no more”. Alvin said if all you do is tax the rich, eventually the rich are gone. Then how do you feed the poor? Then he quoted the Margaret Thatcher line about “other people’s money”. Sorry, I don’t begrudge rich folks their money. Never did scoff at the 1%. Worked my ass off to be one. Not quite there, but working on it.
"tax the rich, feed the poor... til there are no rich no more..." as opposed to til there are no poor no more... important distinction
Dude, if you like this, you'll like "I Can't Keep From Crying" - 8/4/1975 - Winterland (Official) and "Good Morning Little Schoolgirl" 8/4/1975 - Winterland (Official). And then there's the Woodstock "I'm Going Home"....
I was in the Navy in San Diego and bought this album as soon as it came out.
Their Recorded Live Album is one of the Best .. ..
Still holds up today. Same problems...😬🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦
TEN YEARS AFTER DUDE
My generation never to be repeated!! Soon we all will be gone
Awesome take on the song. 60s and 70s was full of great songs that attacked the “establishment” then the 80s flipped the switch and no one cared anymore. You can hear the evolution in the lyrics from 60s to now.
Ten Years AFTER. Ten Years LATER is what they called themselves LATER :)
I live through those times it wasn't fantastic but I always thought things would get better things are not better things are so much worse😢 we're going in reverse God help us all❤
Saw them in 71 at the Kiel in St. Louis, what a great show till a riot broke out when a bunch of ushers stood in front of the stage when the band broke into I'm Going Home. Jim
I forgot too mention, total kick ass guitar and great drumming and great vocals. So many things that were going on years ago and sung about, so many of those issues are just as relevant and still with us now. Change in the human condition takes many years to change.
Although technology races right along and we're really great at creating newer high tech weapons to kill one another with at accelerated paces.
Peace ❤
Check out Cricklewood Green album. There's not a bad song on it.
Btw just such a classic smoking pot as a kid in the early 80s song. Many memories brought back.
Alvin’s an incredibly great guitar player. This song is awesome. Making money by honestly giving people something is cool. The problem comes when companies use the coercive state to rig the game to keep out competitors. Also, the federal reserve really messes things up by inflating the money supply.
Yes you should go down that road Ten Years After
Bro im old and you are killing it with your choice of reactions. Rock on man!
🤘🏿🤘🏿🤘🏿
Got the Ten Years After live album set, 1973. Remember the time the songs were written. Head phone don’t do it justice. Jbl’s and AR9s and Carver M500 power.
This is their only song on my playlist, but it's a great one
Prophetic
This was one of the first songs I fell in love with while listening to my little portable AM radio instead of sleeping. Another great song from the same year (I think) is "Do You Know What I Mean?" by Lee Michaels.
Fantastic reaction, thx!
Thank you
You know the Golden Rule?
Whoever has the gold, makes the rules.
Facts
I received the album for my 13th birthday in August,1971. Loved, Loved, Loved this song. Looking back now this just may be the best song released in 1971,
and there were a lot of great songs that year.
A timeless classic !
Great protest song from the Vietnam war era, Biz. 1971. That was the year I turned 8 😂
Anthem song for a generation that rose up. Anti Vietnam war.
You'll love "I'm Going Home", live at Woodstock. If you play it, please get the whole performance of the song! There are some funky cut up shortened versions out there...
THANK YOU!!
🤘🏿🤘🏿🤘🏿
Me just drinkin’ a shleer, smokin’ a shliff, and readin’ the shlyrics while Biz reacts to my music….💨
Sound like great time 😂 🙌🏿🙌🏿
@@watchbizmatik Do yo’ thing, Bro….I’ll be right here…
React to Ten Years After live at Woodstock performing going home
One of my favorite bands, guitarist ( Alvin Lee), and albums. The song One of These Days from this same album is a good one to check out.
Nice guitar work in this!
A strange fact about this hit song for the band is that guitarist/singer Alvin Lee didn't like it. I think it strayed too far from their roots and catered to psychedelia, which wasn't where they were coming from. I saw TYA three times and they never played it...their biggest hit. I like it myself. Check out the Ten Years After Recorded Live version of I'm Going Home.
In a post I said that I went to a concert of theirs and quite the opposite of your experience they basically only played this song…like for 45 minutes. I think that it was at a crummy venue or they were totally messed up because after the first 10 minutes…& they kept on playing this, I knew that something was up.
Most rich people do pay a lot of taxes. Oh, loved the song and your reaction.
Thank you
They played at Woodstock.
You need to listen to their song "I'm going home"
It was the very early seventies when I first heard this song on the radio and was blown away at the sound of the guitar! I was a very young child the time , about 5yrs old. It sparked a on going life obsession with this beautiful instrument.
Consider the time when this came out and what was going on. Vietnam , the Cold War looming over Europe and the world, the spread of communism and young adults beginning to see the social diversity cropping up that probably contradicted their whole moral belief system that came from a Christian majority in our western civilization. That's a lot for the young adults at this point in time and they were reflecting it in their music. Ten Years After was from across the pond in the UK, I believe. This was their swan song! One to be remembered for the ages! But you can't go wrong with their Woodstock footage doing "I'm Coming Home"
The top ten percent of rich people in America pay 70% of all the taxes. They pay plenty of taxes but they also go by the tax loopholes in the convoluted tax laws.
The Quad mix is more stunnimg.
Song was before it's time.
I always took this to mean as America’s tumultuous times starting in the 60s and continued into the 70s, especially the war. If possible, could you if you haven’t, do a dive into the Isley Brothers 🔥✌🏼
Love this song, although the groovy 60s are before my time (born 64) as a kid you pick up these songs and they stay with you.
It's not a slam, (no 60s) it's actually saying those words for the first time. My sis the fiscal wizard told me we can't tax ourselves out of poverty, but what do I know? I paint pictures.
well, one thing this song shows is the concept of same s**t different day
Check out Alvin Lee doing Bluest Blues w/ George Harrison on slide guitar. Great! 🔥
Ten years LATER
We'd sit around smoking 70 weed and talk about, who's the baddest lead, Hendrix, Clapton, Beck, I always loved Alvin Lee, fastest, Wishbone ash, had a song out, the king will come, 2 leads, then the shit hit the fan, Band out of fla came out 3 leads, never looked back, Skynard, caent smoke the shit now days, caent talk❤🎉😮😂
