    "I want you - she's so heavy", from his 1994 solo album - George Harrison played with him on this one.

      A 1975 version of "One of these days", Ten Years After at their best, arguably.

        Alvin Lee interviewed in 1988. Pretty interesting. He speaks about his influences, young guitarists of that period, his own playing "from adrenaline", about his way of playing the guitar.
        He was nicknamed "Captain Speed Fingers" because of his fast guitar playing.

        To me, if there was but one who could illustrate what a 20st century guitar player was in a couple of centuries, Alvin Lee would be te one. 100% musician.
