Playlist: • Alvin Lee
Alvin Lee (born Graham Anthony Barnes 19.12.1944 - 6.03.2013) was an English singer and guitarist, best known as the lead vocalist and lead guitarist of the blues rock band Ten Years After / Alvin says “… this is one of my favourite tracks from my album ‘1994’. It has George Harrison on slide guitar and is one of the best solos he ever played (George's solo 2:13 - 3:08) . It’s a masterpiece, so sensitive. Hearing George made me play more sensitive too! I’m very proud of this one.” (Alvin's genius solo 4:00 - 7:27)

I couldn't wait to see you - waiting by the door
There's no one there to meet me - and your clothes are on the floor
Sorry if I hurt you - and I made you cry
Couldn't stand to see you - with another guy
It's the bluest blues - and it cuts me like a knife
It's the bluest blues - since you walked out of my life
Couldn't really tell you - how you hurt my pride
Something broke within me - down inside
I never knew I loved you - til you went away
Now the loneliness surrounds me - everyday
It's the bluest blues - since you walked out of the door
It's the bluest blues - cause I won't see you no more
I'm sorry if I failed you - if somehow I'm to blame
It's the bluest blues I'm feeling - it's a cryin' shame
I just can't live without you - face another day
It's the bluest blues I'm feeling, and it's here to stay
It's the bluest blues, and it cuts me to the bone
It's the bluest blues, when you can't find your way home

#AlvinLee#BluestBlues
I was lucky to be playing piano and organ on this track and also in the studio when George laid down the slide. Alvin was my friend for over 50 years and we loved playing music together. I played on many of his records and co wrote a lot of songs with him. As many have said eat yer heart out Eric😉 Tim Hinkley
Brilliant job! Thank you for the comment, Tim. Long creative years to you!
yea,,seen Ten Years After once
,,always loved Alvin
You played with a legend in my book...your a lucky man
My dad took me too see him in MODESTO CALIF. I WAS 16 ,BACK IN 1974. I love too change the world was the song he sang. My first concert. (I JUST LOVE HIM!!!)THANK-YOU✌😛💖
They don’t get any better than this Tim - Wonderful Job ! And to be there helping produce it - your a lucky man !
I'm 65 years old, and that is probably one of the greatest blues songs I have ever heard in my entire life
78 years and I ve never heard it before. Really one of the best pieces of blues ever. Thanks.
I'm 81 and totally agree with you.
Приветствую Вас!Это произведение моей молодости.Настольгия моих родителях. Мне 62 года исполниться 7 марта, без музыки не живу!Ленинград❤❤❤
It is bitchin..
I'm 72 agree
I'm 75 years old, and that is probably one of the greatest blues songs I have ever heard in my entire life!!!!!!!!
My dad showed me this song when I was just a kid, now I’m 45 and keep listening to this song from time to time, one of my favorites.
In the 60s every body was listening to the Beatles I listened to the blues and I never looked back
What to say...hard to find words ....our generation was lucky to enjoy this music..
Good luck to next ones
Я ВОСХИЩАЮСЬ ВСЮ ЖИЗНЬ, МНЕ 62 ГОДА, ЛЮБЛЮ ОЧЕНЬ РАЗНУЮ МУЗЫКУ, НО , КОГДА СЛЫШУ БЛЮЗ, Я ПРОКРУЧИВАЮ ВСЮ ЖИЗНЬ, СЛЕЗЫ СЧАСТЬЯ И Я ЖИВУ ВНОВЬ!Ленинград❤❤❤
George’s solo with slide is one of the best and emotional tone i ever heard.
These kids today have no idea the era of true blues and rockin roll us baby boomers grew up with. Dying breed of artist this world will never see again. AI will change it. I was so sad when Alvin Lee perished from this screwed up world. I lived in the best of times and we enjoyed the greatest musicians and music.
I'd love to change the world! But I don't know what to do!
RIP ALVIN LEE! 😉🙏🙏🕊✌✌
✨💙✌️💙✨
Agreed at 60.....never again
My absolute, all-time, favorite blues song. Forever and always. Love you Alvin.
Unless you have lost someone truly special, idk if you can hear this song ....truly
Well said.
My new favorite blues recording. One commenter said it was too short - he could listen to it for hours! I agree. Too short...
I hope you all have heard this song before. And it's new to me and I'm 64years old and my father who did not care for rock music Would have been sooooo into this song and I wish I could have been able to let him here and enjoy this song 😢 because I don't have my father anymore 😢 But I'm happy to hear this song and I will never forget the first time I heard those blues.
@WildBill-ur6jp This is an epic blues number. I've been a fan of Alvin Lee, and Ten Years After since 1970 when I bought their LP "Sssh." Alvin is a very underrated guitarist. I like to think he was "shredding" before it was a thing.
Losing a Father is a hard blow. Mine gave me the love of music. He left in 1985. Sometimes it seems like yesterday.
Truly, this is a great song.
Quand j'avais 15 ans Alvin Lee était mon guitariste préféré ; aujourd'hui je me dis que j'avais sacrément bon gout !
Both RIP To Alvin and George one of the best Blus songs Ever Rock-on
Alvin Lee and George Harrison, it don't get any better than that.
Two amazing artists we are blessed to have in our lives! Amazing!!!
I've known 10 years after for a very long time but this video touched me till my d... long live rock n roll!!!
Sentire questa musica ti fa venire i brividi . Bravo Alvin
I was fortunate enough to see Alvin Lee play in a small club in Brooklyn, NY, in the 80s. Does anyone remember the club Lamores . I saw many a great bands there. RIP Alvin and George.
My friend's told me that Alvin Lee was at Woodstock and even though Jimi Hendrix was there that it was that young Mr Alvin Lee that made the crowd at Woodstock go crazy and he was the best thing ever and I think he still has the best 😊 stage presence personality on stage of any performance that I've ever seen and then you could find Randy Hansen into the 1980s tell present-day kicking some ass on stage with his guitar 🎸 and I saw Randy Hansen play the Fairfield California bowling alley and a week later the Dead Kennedys on in San Francisco. And when I 🤔 think about it I have been sooooo Lucky and grateful for the rest of my life for the past few years because if I look back in that time of my life 🧬 I would not believe that anyone else could have been sooooo blessed to witness those things😂❤ and now that I'm older and living with a lot of pain and 😊 from generative bone disease I can put on music like this and the pain is not so bad and for another few minutes I feel like I'm only top of the world and that I'm 20years young and my father and mother are both alive in my heart and I will live forever 😅 thank you all soooo much for keeping the music alive and allowing me 🙏 to amazed at your awesome collection of songs that keep me alive with feeling like I can make it One more day 🎉🎉😢 and may God bless you all.
George's slide is amazing.
This is one of those generational songs that leaves you wondering if you just heard the best Blues song of all time.
Wundetfull
I think you did!
Very true!
This isn't really even a blues tune- it's a power ballad. Only someone who's never listened to Wolf or Muddy or Buddy Guy or Robert Johnson, or Son House or Little Walter or BB or Elmore James would say something this dumb. This is a great song with wonderful performances, but claiming a white guy from England wrote and performed a better blues song than the guys I mentioned is just ridiculous.
@@craighumphrey8287 I'll go with this version if you don't mind.
A dog laying by your feet and good music will always be mans best friends. Magnificent piece of Music. ☮
Has to be a german shepherd dog……
And with a good 12 year old scotch..... single malt or double doesn't matter....
@@johnkumeu811... so you never had an Akita Inu as a companion walking at your side. 😊
A dog actually LYING by your feet (as we say in English), is even better!
Great, great, great slide "solo" of George Harrison!
Now, that's how u write, sing, play and bleed music🤘,RIP mr. Alvin ✝
If could play like that I would be sooooo happy and excited to be alive and then my life would be complete.
...George Harrison plays the slide solo!!!two of the best british musicians of all time..rip both
WOW! ABSOLUTELY OUTSTANDING! RIP ALVIN LEE AND GEORGE HARRISON!
Man.... George layin down some sweet blues slide. Great song with great players makes for great music. Thanks to all involved, but especially Alvin and George.
Love Alvin Lee so underappreciated and Ten years After were an iconic band.This song is sooo good
yep. unfortunately. BUT - WE KNOW HE BELONGS TO THE ABSOLUTELY TOP OF THE TOPS ::: and nobody will change it ;-)
I saw Alvin Lee and Ten Years After as a young man in San Francisco....I was left in awe and knew immediately that he was a cut above and something rare and special. Today I'm left to question why he together with Ten Years After are not in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame.....especially when you consider some who occupy places of prominence there.....this is the man who stole Woodstock among other things.....it boggles my mind that he continues to occupy the hearts of so many, but is unrecognized by his peers.
You are so right. People don't know how great Alvin was.
Alvin Lee was one of the greatest, I saw him in Frankfurt.
Noting about Alvin Lee is {under appreciated} is this some new lingo for the overused (underrated), ugh say it ain’t sooo 😑
Found this when seeking consultation after my two sons left to live their own lives.
Just expressed how I felt at that time trying to fill the void and silence.
A chair is just a chair.
When no one's sitting there.🤔
This is one of the most beautiful songs in the blues world. So much emotion felt from this ballad.... To take sadness and put it in the voice and instruments to where the listener understands the meaning is a gift Alvin Lee truly has. 🤗🎸❤️
Is there a more prefect blues tune? Blues guitar, slide guitar and pitch-perfect blues vocals. Pure blues perfection! Thank God He blessed us all with Alvin Lee! Lee's music will live forever in the hearts of rock and blues fans.
Здорово сказано!Привет Санкт Петербург
I could spend my entire night listening to Alvin and Gary Moore
For me one of the most emotional blues ever! Missed that times🥲
Rory Gallagher, Gary Moore, and Alvin Lee, they left their lives but still living in our mind.
Those Brothers left a massive void behind,Less We Forget by cranking up the volume ..
Gone not forgotten
👊🏾🇳🇿👊🏾
Beautifully said and all so similar talents. Well done.
萩原さん 同感です‼️
@@user-ko1ws1rc6h 特にゲイリームーアと僕は同い年なもので、彼が公演をしていたスペインで急逝したというニュースは、とてもショックでした。
Could I have said it any better? Absolutely not. This music is the binding tie that unites us as brothers and sisters. The universal peacemaker. Amor y Paz. Rock till you drop!!!!
Harrison played slide on this? Jeez, respect. Now I love it even more.
who plays slide like that!
Chris Ray?
Rea
With all the hits and deep cuts from TYA and Alvin, I think this is my favorite.
Obłędny utwór,po prostu -pelny" jaazz".Tim jesteś ikoną tego utworu! Pozdrawiam🙂
I love Alvin Lee!!!!💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
A master with a humble heart.
I was just saying the other day that George Harrison was a great guitar player and my buddy said he didn't think he was. Gotta have him listen to this. Alvin Lee played some great live shows and yes made great records.
Never heard this...thanx,I really miss George.
Just to see a Peace sign there is all that you need to fell free , Thanks
Credo che ognuno in fondo abbia un blues nel cuore, questo di Alvin è tra quelli a me più cari
This year marks 50 years, was the last time I got to see TEN YEARS AFTER. ALWAYS IN MY HEART!
I remember the first time I heard this song I thought how could something so beautiful be so sad. I was floored.
I’m embarrassed to admit it: I’m 61 and have never really paid much attention to Alvin Lee or TYA. Thanks to this video, that will be changing, effective immediately.
I’ll never forget the first time I heard this - I was absolutely stunned, and I am every time I hear it. It is an absolute masterpiece!!
Me neither. Alvin Lee to me was always a great player who could shred unbelievably ala Goin' Home.A beautiful song and beautiful solo by Harrison. Alvin's solo is a melodic masterpiece and completely different from what I'd come to expect from him having listened to him over the years. I was shocked when I first heard it.
Where has this been all my life? What a great song.
hogula you know what’s good music my friend 👍
I have listened as a term of 14 years old 🙏
You have missed it now you now it 🙏
What an amazing piece of work.
Alvin Lee was something special and underrated, this song has got to be one of the greatest pieces of work in this genre.
It goes straight to the top of my list.
Such a heart opener.
How to climb up and out of the metaphoric grave and into the grace of meaning.
Sadness, is not the end, its just a new beginning.
AT 77 THIS IS STILL ONE OF THE VERY BEST PIECES OF MUSIC EVER.....
Same at 74 🥰. Take care Dear Friend 🙏🏻
At 79 here, not bad at all...
The greatest solo on electric guitar I've ever heard. Absolutely off the chain 🔥♥️
Then you never heard or seen Tina S playing the Moonlight Sonate from Beethoven ;-)

Genius.
I couldn't wait to see you
waiting by the door
There's no one there to meet me
and your clothes are on the floor
Sorry if I hurt you
and I made you cry
Couldn't stand to see you
with another guy
It's the bluest blues
and it cuts me like a knife
It's the bluest blues
since you walked out of my life
Couldn't really tell you
how you hurt my pride
Something broke within me
down inside
I never knew I loved you
'til you went away
Now the loneliness surrounds me
everyday
It's the bluest blues
since you walked out of the door
It's the bluest blues
cause I won't see you no more
I'm sorry if I failed you
if somehow I'm to blame
It's the bluest blues I'm feeling
it's a cry'en shame
I just can't live without you
face another day
It's the bluest blues I'm feeling
and it's here to stay
It's the bluest blues
and it cuts me to the bone
It's the bluest blues
when you can't find your way home
❤

Beautiful slide guitar solo by the late great George Harrison. Absolutely brilliant!!
HLT - I have loved everything George Harrison has played; he has a very unique sound that is identifiable.
I had no idea that was George Harrison 😳 epic
My favorite Beatle. For my Father/Daughter dance at my daughters wedding, she picked Here Comes the Sun, it reminds her of happier times!
@@maxperry1635
I don’t play the guitar 🎸 but imo Derek Trucks is THE best slide player that I’ve ever heard!
Just beautiful!!! Brought tears.....hearing George's slide guitar solo. The singing....everything about this song is just perfect!!!!
Wow. Just heard this for the first time. What an amazing piece of music. The guitar tone is 11/10 and the notes are sublime. Wish I'd followed Alvin through his career. I feel that I've missed out. And that everyone else has too.
Alvin Lee and Ten Years After are vastly underrated. Alvin belongs in the top 10 guitarists of all time and Ten Years After belongs in the top ten bands of all time.
Абсолютно верно !
Totally agree, have loved their stuff since I was in my teens (70s), Alvin long my hero @Scott McGrew
You are so wright Scott!!
Awesome blues
bravo!!! fully agree
Alvin Lee...my only inspiration for 55 years and absolute guitar hero. I'm very sad that I never got to see him perform live. This track is beautifully composed and will touch anyone's heart. Thanks Oleg for posting. Wonderful keyboard contribution.
This is the Bluest Blues I've ever listened to,so beautiful! RIP Alvin Lee
Hello Robbie, How are you doing?
Unreal, Bluest Blues. Red house, life doesnt get much better.
This is the one song that gets to me every time . Thank you Alvin 💕
Yeah,man! Wild times,Good times& Sad times! During those early years,50some years back then the 1960's1970's the 1980's! The best times of Smash Hits from those Wild Woolly Rock Bands! Several favorites way back then: Alvin Lee&TenYearsAfter,Cream,The Jimi Hendrix Experience,The Who,Joe Cocker:A little help from my friends! Deep Purple The Book of Taliysen,The Rolling stones,still going,John Kay of Steppenwolf one my favorites! So many more Great Bands over the last 65years! The songs,the legends,the greatest Bands of Rock&Roll Blues still here and will never die!
Alvin cut many a great Albums. He was very versatile and played a variety of styles. Known primarily for His lightning rock blues riffs. But Alvin’s Collaboration with others is a great tribute to his love and friendships. Alvin was just as happy playing country stuff and even gospel. He made a great album with Mylon Lefevere’ -the great southern born rock gospel singer and many other great albums. George plays such tasty slide on this song. Alvin plays the tastiest soulful blues at lightning speed. Honestly how this recording is not more well known is a hard to fathom
Didnt know George Harrison collaborated on this masterpiece. Now I love it more than ever.
Me too, 🤣🤣
Amen
Slide guitar..it's beautiful... perfect
Alvin and George were neighbors. Well actually… they still are. ❤️
Two great masters, and humble Heart. God bess both of them!
Two of the Greatest Two of the Best, Thank You
My God fantastically done...
I always loved this song but assumed Alvin played the slide solo. Great to learn it was Harrison. Alvin was amazing and sadly so under appreciated. Definitely in the pantheon of blues and rock guitarists.
Alvin is probably the most underappreciated blues guitarist. He was amazingly talented and his lyrics either lift you up to heaven, make you reflective or fill you with joy. He and Gary Moore leave you breathless with their talent and their ability. A great loss to us all.
@honestmark102 you an Alvin fan?
@honestmark102 Britain
@honestmark102 am good thanks, you? Its been a glorious day, listening to Alvin, yet again!
Sad to say but this is the first time I've ever heard this. Absolutely beautiful
George Harrison plays the first guitar solo
Really hits home. Divorced after 40 years together
@@johnshuler8688 Sorry Friend. It rips your heart out.
Das beste was ich je von ihm gehört habe Gruß
You know a lot of people have never got a chance to experience ten years after, the band this man made famous , my only comment is Edward Van Halen had Eric Clapton and Cream , I had Alvin Lee and Ten Years After they were incredible never ever made a bad song everything was like how is that even possible, incredible talent that never got the recognition that it deserved, most people don't even know this guy really out played Jimi Hendrix at woodstock, but who knows it could have been the rain and Hendrix having to play early in the AM ,but we got a legendary performance out of both of them ,I'm going home and the star spangled banner!!! (Love You All, Peace and Love Forever!!!
Thank you for this weeping joy.
Mr. George Harrison is playing the 1st slide guitar lead and it is just touching how good he was. Awesome! RIP both of you guys!
Must b jammin up in Heaven. Can't wait to get their.
@@paulcota5465 Magic isn't real.
The one minute slide solo from George is simply beautiful and fits the song perfectly.
I am from México, I live in Cancún and i am 65 years old, Alvin Lee for me is One of best guitar man for all times, you are a luki man of you know him
Just clicked this by chance - best 7 mins+ I've heard in a long long time -- question is -- why isn't this track/artist more "out there". Going to have to rethink my "bests" listening list.
I can never get enough of this tune. It is so soul stirring.
One of the most beautiful songs ever
This is my favorite blues 💙
One of the most beautiful songs, one of my favorites.
I have listened to Alvin Lee for as long as he's put out music. This song is daily play lately, my wife passed end of March. The bluest Blues without her. His guitar skills are vastly under rated. I can lose myself while he's playing. I can't ask for more. Thanks for posting
I have not heard anyone come close to playing guitar . It moves you deeply. some will cry.
Sorry for your loss.

@@sandydority2532 I appreciate your taking the time to express sympathy to someone you'll likely never meet. I've used music to help get through the death of my wife, which followed the death of our daughter and my father all within the space of 15 months. Music was an essential part of our marriage, helping to bring us together and create many important memories to share. Karen, my wife's name but nothing like the stereotype that name has acquired, was a trained contralto voice and a conductor as well. My complete lack of musical talent gave me a sense of awe towards her beautiful vocal skills. For all of the performances she was involved in, I only possess one recording of her singing as a soloist. But that song sung in classical German evokes tears of joy and loss every time I play it. It's a perfect match to her vocal range, and allows her natural talent and love for music to be given it's best possible expression. Obviously I'm not neutral in my review of signing, but I will always take some pride in being her partner in life.
Thanks for giving me an opportunity to put down in words what we shared in life and what I've lost when she passed away. If this attempt at writing a comment in reply to you is successful, it will be the fourth time I've tried to put into words how our time together made me a better person. I've been using the comment sections as a kind of personal therapy. Telling others about the grief I feel and the constant fog daily life has become, has kept me from bottling everything inside. Being able to vent has probably stopped me from spiraling down and out. So I thank you and so many others for reminding me that life can still have moments of beauty and hope even though I've lost those who gave it meaning and purpose. When you take the time to express sympathy because you can understand what it might feel like to be in their shoes, it helps to remind me that my life isn't over because of what I've lost. The world is still full of beauty and good people if I can keep going. What I've lived through is preparation for what comes next. Thanks again, hope your day goes well. Also wanted to mention that I love the font you used in your comment. Could you tell me where you found it? Peace
🌃😢🌃
I really love this song ,it's ...Too much !! Alvin was extraordinary...❤
Wow, first time I hear that one....always like Alvin «I'd like to change the world but I don't know what to do so I 'll leave it up to you»...Great Blues and great slide by Harrison.
They sure don't make guitarist like this anymore!!!!! RIP✌🎸
George è come un grande fiume da cui si diramano infiniti corsi d'acqua...Più leggo,conosco, ascolto di lui ,piu scopro cose meravigliose come questa..Tante preziose collaborazioni, una miniera di esperienze,uno sconfinato talento...e tutto senza fare tanto rumore.Grazie per tutto al dolce george, chi lo segue e lo ama è oggi più ricco
I've seen Alvin...3 times with Ten Years After and 1 time with Ten Years Later. He always played with feeling, heart, and passion. He always gave you your "money's worth." One of the "great guitar legends"...now gone, but, never will be forgotten.
sunking2001 amen to that sublime guitarist
twice with 10 years later- awesome shows, both
twice with 10 years later- awesome shows, both
sunking2001 I saw him once with After and 3 times with Later. He had zero ego and attitude. Zero hype or pretentiousness. He played till his fingers bled. He was the best guitarist at Woodstock that weekend
Ahh such a beautifull song ! Text, music,everything. I suddenly get this pressure on my tear glands....
This is what makes me cry ...
George Harrison's slide guitar made me cry.
Alvin Lee was one of the greatest guitar players of our time.God rest his soul
Absolutely
So was so many others before .
Oh fuck ya he was. Lucky to see 10 yrs aft 4 times in mid 70's
Yes,all time! Khamid.
@@rikaroo Rick you lucky guy,saw him alive, be proud,it,s your remember,l am glad for you.good luck.Khamid.
No one makes a guitar cry like Alvin!
If Lee is not in your top 10 guitar stingers, we won't be talking!
Great guitar Master of the craft. Loved how he pretty much used a Gibson 335 model for his career, and was a testament to how many sounds/tones that guitar can make. He was a genius and is sorely missed, RIP Alvin
Joe B. has his guitar.
Could this be the greatest guitar solo ever? Jaw dropping in its beauty and intensity.
Same league as Comfortably Numb
@@davidanboo1205 My exact same thought.
Not only a masterpiece for Lee but Harrison as well. I actually have to remember to breath while listening to this.
Could be... it takes you off to infinity.
Forever the blues Bet they are Playing the blues in heaven.
If you don't Love this Song .....
You haven't been in Love.
I often talk about slow guitar, which in many ways is just as difficult to play properly as speed guitar. This track shows that perfectly. Two awesome, but completely different solos. RIP to two sorely missed geniuses.
I saw Alvin Lee at the Golden Bear on Coast Hwy in Huntington Beach. He left the stage and kicked the door open and was shredding on the highway...awesome memories.
