Переглядів 2132 роки тому
I was able to sit down and chat with my favorite rock radio person, Cindy Chan, and bare my soul to her talking about my life in music. She is a wonderful woman and took the interview to a place I was both delighted and happy to go. This was filmed by director Stephen Graham in a recording studio. The owner and engineer is Alan Dusel. This is part one of a three part interview.
Alyn Syms at the Tralf - Arthur's Sword from The Lost Art ( 2004 )
Переглядів 2273 роки тому
The last unofficial performance of ASG in 2007. A loose jam but enough to show the firepower and improvisational skills of the fellas. Myself, Paul Mordaunt on Bass, Lenny Potwora on drums, and Peter Galus on vocals. We're playing Arthur's Sword from " The Lost Art. "

I've always had a simple approach to composing music, that of creating a better world than the one we live in. No power on earth can stop dreams and the best dreams are always, in all ways, pleasant ones, like this song...
ALYN SYMS - STORMY MONDAY - LIVE at the Sportsman's Tavern ( HD )
Переглядів 6074 роки тому
LIVE at the Sportsman's Tavern in October of 2019. I must have played this song a thousand times in as many clubs since I started playing professionally in 1967. I played every joint, back room, back alley and many places where the dressing room was a nail on the wall and the light show was a red bulb in a coffee can you had to screw in before you started playing. But it was the best training b...
Alyn Syms featuring Clarence Bradley - Silent Night HD
Переглядів 9226 років тому
A soulful rendition of Silent Night. Clarence Bradley and myself started out together in the mid-sixties, essentially growing up onstage. We used play in bands together doing Otis Redding, James Brown, Wilson Pickett but Otis was Clarence's favorite. This arrangement is reminiscent of something Otis did with Steve Cropper on guitar. I think Clarence's vocals are superb.
Alyn Syms - Passion Play - from Black Forest - A Tribute to Jimmy Page
Переглядів 2427 років тому
One of my favorite guitarists and biggest influence as a guitarist, composer and producer. Passion Play is about the love between a guitarist and their instrument, which is similar to love in a personal relationship, with all of the positive and negative effects with one big exception. The guitar is always there for you and helps you weather the storm of personal relationships and anything else...

Alyn Syms - The Enlightened Path
Переглядів 2317 років тому
I wrote this song after being in a bad car accident in 2003. Seeing the sunset the day after it felt like my first. I wrote this celebrating life, freedom and a new heightened appreciation for the path that I was on. A new and better one, an enlightened path. I played it for a friend in the UK and all she saw in her mind was the American West in all of its glory, a uniquely American gift to the...

Cindy Chan & Alyn Syms, two treasures in WNY!
Clarence 🎤 🎼 To "A", A+
Alyn, this was awesome!!!!
2:29 love this
When do we get Part 2, Alyn?!
Pts II and III should be up in a month or so, sorry for the delay.
Love this song!!
Beautifully done!❤
Great state of Lackawanna. WTF.
Just awesome ! The first time I heard "Good Band Down" was on 97 Rockin Buffalo, and Cindy was the DJ. Since I didn't know the band I called the station and wanted to find out what band this was. She said... a band from Lackawanna named A.S.G.. So I visited Cavages and they had no idea about A.S.G. So I'd check every week awaiting some news. Well....the guy said it would be in next week. And boom..... ASG fan. Saw many of your performances and the were always first rate. Your shows we like a concert and not like a weekly bar band. First saw the band at Shea's Theater in Buffalo. SOLD OUT show. Always good to see and hear great Buffalo talent. And Cindy Chan, well...she's as classy as ever.
I had the 45, played it 30,000 times!!!
Found you!
Alyn I love it!
Always the road trips and moving their equipment from show to show.
Is this the legendary Sly? If so great to hear from you and Lenny sends his regards as well.
@@alynsyms9666 yes it is released 2 years court ordered. Charges dropped. But took a lot of money and time spent behind bars. And not the bars I used to like to visit for a beer and watch you guys play. Will meet up with you as soon I get my license to drive back. Send my regards back to Lenny. Happy Holidays. See you soon.
Best rock group
Loved ASG in the late 70s, would love to see you play now in 2021. Magical❤️
Thank you Becky. So nice of you to say. Wonderful words indeed. I've been trying to get back on stage for over a year now. If I can't get a show off the ground I'm looking at starting 2022 with a theater concert. I'll keep you posted. Thank you again.
You are the best my man
the easiest person to lose in life is also yourself.
I remember waking up early in HS and turning on the stereo in hopes of hearing this song!
So much heart and soul. Your music takes me away to a special place!
One Man and his guitarssss! :-)
The music and photography always meld together nicely! All of your work inspires an inner feeling...an emotion...life!
Classic! Back in the day when people could rock and play! Damn disco, punk, and MTV! ASG could have been the band to rule the 80s and beyond! Damn the suits too for lipsyncing, hair, clothes, dance steps, and all the other money grab BS. As Pete and Roger said, LONG LIVE ROCK!
Wild horses on the prairie on a cool, sunny, refreshing, spring day!
Back To The Future...1st Know Electric Guitar in the early 1830s!
If you told me this was Jimmy Page playing, I wouldn't argue!
WOW! When you need a break from being too busy...THIS is your answer! Soothing, peaceful, loving!
Nothing as much fun as playing the blues. Sounds great! Thanks for sharing
LOOK AT MY DAD. THEY STILL GOT IT.
Over 200 years ago, Fr Joseph Mohr, a priest from Salzburg, composed a poem for his Christmas Service. He wished that it be put to music, so he went to the only musician in town, Franz Xaver Gruber who added the melody on his request. Gruber's instrument ... a guitar. So this is how is how it sounded on that night. Played perfectly by my friend Alyn Syms and sung so beautifully by Clarence Bradley beth
LISTENING TO HIS STRINGS SOUND LIKE 3 OR MORE INSTRUMENTS IN ONE. PURE GENIUS.
A heartfelt thanks Tiph'arah. I can't tell you how much I appreciate your kind words.
@@alynsyms9666 Hello, this is Clarence Bradley's oldest daughter
LOVE THIS GUY :)
A honor!
My Father. I love 💘him so much.
Beautifully Done!!
Saw them @ The Penny Arcade Rochester New York.
This is sick man. You're a very talented player.
Great straight forward rock and roll!
AWESOME !!!!
Exquisite!!! I could listen to this all day. Blown away!
I enjoyed this very much, so positive and upbeat. Photography is really beautiful.
I took guitar lessons from him at Buffalo Guitar Center in the early 80's.
Beautiful music
Got the single at the "record shop" in Fredonia in 79, 80? Wore it out! This band should have gone much further!
