    Saw him at Green Hotel in Kinross, Fife , Scotland. Took my disco chick girlfriend who had no idea who he was. She loved what he played and how he played commenting on his age. It was a small audience and we all went to the bar after. He sat down with his family and friends. Looked like his wife was in a wheelchair. One of the most influential guitarists in history was so understated and unassuming. We just left him in peace. Awesome.

      We were there also , great night , intimate venue . Steve Gibbons , Martin Barre , Wishbone Ash , Uli Jon Roth , Eric Bell , Lindisfarne . . . We’ve seen some of the best there over the past few years . Bloody long drive from Manchester , but worth it .

    Imagine if one in a thousand people on earth was as nice as Albert, the world would a place worth living in then because you'd meet that person at least once every few years.

    Friend of mine who does front of house at a big venue told me when Albert Lee plays it's written into the contract that the house sound guy can't tell him to turn down his guitar amp!

    Albert Lee is one of the better pickers out there.That country twang of his makes any song worth a listen to.I love how he doesn’t use distortion.

    The Audience are wearing mask, and the band is not...????
    I don’t get it...? Are these people afraid of getting germs from Albert Lee’s fantastic playing...???
    If I thought I could catch his legendary guitar talent from breathing the same air he is....!
    Hell Albert should bottle his breath then..............! 🎶❤️🎸👍

    Albert playing and singing on a great version of Gram Parsons song “Wheels”. Doesn’t get any better than that. Hard to believe it was April 1967 when I first saw Albert playing live. At that time he was playing guitar with Chris Farlowe and the Thunderbirds.

    Surprise: Jen is a one person production company! She is doing the work of a dozen skilled people and doing it well! Whatever Norm is paying her, it's not enough. Brandon did a great job on audio as well. Albert and the band did great, as expected.

    Albert is a musician's musician. I saw him in Phoenix tearing up a concert piano playing Bach, Beethoven, Chopin!
    Most of us never see this side of him.
    Super sweet guy tops it off.

    Awesome, 😊 the rhythm section is locked in and nailin it tight n tasteful. That’s half the battle for any pro guitarist conveying tunes. A legend in his own right to country and rock on his Tele in as much as Chet was to his style on his Gretsch.

  • @rickbroderick9146
    @rickbroderick9146 Рік тому +11

    Great players great band. Albert playing with cold hands,while a little subdued, subtly making a face about his playing, is still Hands Down, one of the Great Nashville guitar slingers. Great vocalist also!

      I was at that show as well. The non-verbal/musical communication between the four musicians while playing was astounding. Similar to this video, I was amazed how much the younger, female audience members were singing & dancing to Albert's music with glee.
