One the best guitar solos of all time. Rivals Carlos Santana's skill. Alvin Lee was amazing. Being able to replicate that is quite an accomplishment. We'll done, Sir!
I've told people for years that this is one of the most beautiful examples of lead/solo guitar I've ever heard. You've done a remarkable job here. Thank you so much.
Thank you so much for this absolutely stellar performance. I spent an evening with Alvin Lee while he was performing in Austin in 95 and he treated me like an old friend, although we met on a smoke break. I get weepy when I hear this solo. Thank you for such a respectful performance. He even gave me the guitar pic he used that night.
Impressive. This is the first time I have seen this done correctly. (Well, OK, Alvin Lee did it right.) Not just the notes are correct, but so are the fretting positions and every nuance. You rock!
My hat off to you Sir. Thank you. This solo has been living in my heart since the 1st time I heard it as a boy, I"m 51 now. Still ranks #1 from me. I hope to learn it too now - thanks to you (nice SG) I got an Epiphone SG that will do it! Thanks Again - Kent
Tommy ! Dude your ability is off the chain! I knew when you nailed that 38 special caught up in you where you nailed that chromatic into a fast lick and out again with another chromatic you were a force to be reckoned with! This cover comes as no surprise! Guess you like the home life with your wife and not into playing on the road with any band! There's a thousands of them out there I'm sure love to have you as their lead guitarist! Thanks again for total intimidation! Ha Ha
Oh man, ya nailed it.....excellent, thanks for doing this. One of my favorites right out of my time. I was just home from a government sponsored free vacation in lovely South East Asia. Alvin could really tear it up and so do YOU!
What a bad ass solo, sounds just like Alvin. Big Time Kudos my friend, big kudos. The artists of yesteryear were/are truly amazing. Back in 1960's to early 70's my 3 older brothers listened to this music and were always laughing now I know why. Magical.
Of the 25 people that downvoted this, first, it's obvious that you're jealous second, this is at the moment, is free, third, I've known a few people that have figured out certain solos (I won't name them) but these people good or bad will rarely share their knowledge if ever. I can't imagine a guitarist more generous than this person. Thank you once again.
Wow! That's was the best. You just gave me the best rendition of that guitar for Alvin Lee. You nailed it! There are so many guitarist that just play around it. Man,with my ears I heard it true. Thank you.
Me & my friends used to butcher this song, back in the late 70s thinking we were killing it!!! Finally in the early nineties me & Carlos figured it out, we used a hollow body greatch ( not spelled right, I know,) and a 79 Gibson custom. And finally got it almost this close ., this is great !!! Love it 👍🏻
Always loved this song, can tell you do as well. Have been watching this for about an hour now. Think I would be content if this the only song I could ever play. Thank You !
Best song ever taught by one of the best Internet teachers.get Tom’s Lessons.! This song is timeless my mom was a 60s 70s hippie I went to bed with this song playing on the turntable eight tracks then cassettes. Today I got frustrated over all the politics of our country and this world January/7/ 2022 I’m now 62. All I could do was think of this song I cranked it over and over again then I thought I’m gonna learn this on guitar. I was happy to find out, I had purchased a membership to all of tom‘s lessons😃 and found this lesson there I’m learning the song thanks tom
Alvin Lee one of the great 🎸 players of all time. This song is prophetic for the days we are in now ‼️
That's one of the most amazing musical things I've ever seen. and I've been playing for 40 years and I've seen a few things.
+jeff summerton thanks for the comment... much appreciated!
Watching this over and over, can't hardly believe what I'm seeing and hearing.
Would be content, if this is the only song I ever played. ha !
I agree. He's got an impeccable groove going on...
Same here, this guy smokes.
Absolutely amazing love it
One the best guitar solos of all time. Rivals Carlos Santana's skill. Alvin Lee was amazing. Being able to replicate that is quite an accomplishment. We'll done, Sir!
I've told people for years that this is one of the most beautiful examples of lead/solo guitar I've ever heard. You've done a remarkable job here. Thank you so much.

Wow! That's an amazing story.
@@LEADSOLO It was surreal to say the least. I mean, we didn't remain in touch or anything, it was just a great night drinking and talking with him.
One of the greatest songs of all time IMHO. I love how the lead in this song compliments the overall song so well without overpowering it...
Alvin Lee´s smiling from heaven... Amazing cover !!!
Impressive. This is the first time I have seen this done correctly. (Well, OK, Alvin Lee did it right.) Not just the notes are correct, but so are the fretting positions and every nuance. You rock!
Yeah but you never saw Alvin do it
One of the truly great guitar songs in rock history, and you nailed it start to finish. Well done yet again, sir. Impressive to say the least.
WOW! I could try for 1000 years to replicate this and never come close.
GREAT PLAYING,ALVIN WOULD BE SO HUMBLE,AND PROUD OF YOUR PLAYING,HE REALLY WOULD BE.GREAT JOB,LESSON FOR US ALL.😎🎸🎶🔊🎼☮️ BOB

Ditto.
Brilliant!
This is the most acurrated cover on YT
So beautiful performance of such a beautiful song.. ❤🎸
A masterpiece! I love how the electric guitar feed fades into view. What a piece of art for the ages.
The solo at "senators, stop the war" gave me the chills. Killer solos, to my ears, up to Alvin Lee's level.
Tommy !

Carry On!
