Pure Blues - Alvin Lee is one of the greatest guitar players of all time and when he plays blues he is at his best. I will be listening to this CD over and over again
If you like blues, you ll love this - 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.
Guitar ecstasy - 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.
PURE BLUES Ten Years After - Could not believe how GREAT this cd was!! Anyone who loves the blues and ten years after should have this cd!!
you can name all the styles, but the real style is Alvin Lee - 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.
