Customer Rating:      Summary: If you like blues, you'll love this Comment: Alvin Lee has always been considered by me to be one of the finest guitarists in the world. I love his old Ten Years After stuff and his solo blues work is just wonderful. I think I have all of his recorded work, but this is my favorite. I may have listened to this collection a hundred times, and have never gotten tired of it, whereas most cds, after 5 or so listenings, I'm ready for a change.
Customer Rating:      Summary: Guitar ecstasy Comment: If you're a fan of blues guitar, this CD will have you with your head back and eyes closed, just lovin' it. Not SRV or KWS, but seriously good guitar and terrific arrangements. I think Alvin Lee found where he belongs with this music.
Customer Rating:      Summary: PURE BLUES Ten Years After Comment: Could not believe how GREAT this cd was!! Anyone who loves the blues and ten years after should have this cd!!
Customer Rating:      Summary: you can name all the styles, but the real style is Alvin Lee Comment: I can see, (hear), now that Lee does indeed use blues, rock, jazz, and rockabilly in his style, after reading mentions of this, but none of this ever occurred to me when I first began listening to him, c.1967. Lee has put all of these influences into seamless personal style that is most accurately communicated by simply calling it "Alvin Lee".
Customer Rating:      Summary: True Blue Comment: True to the title this is Alvin's & (&TYA's) bluest...excellent,throughout. Tracks chosen from past works as well as newer compositions, I think were/are Great choices. My only beef is that more and more people are not aware of the magnificent musicianship of Ten Years After and,of course, Alvin Lee's genius. ...keep playin' on guys there are some of us who live for and appreciate your efforts...a true masterwork or as the French would say a chef-d'oeuvre... WOAH!!!
Peace!!
