      Yeah, Alvin Lee/Ten Years After were an amazing guitarist and band! I have a few albums here, and on one of them they talk about four musical gymnastics, which they were ..a-mazing! And Yes too of course, I remember a friend in the '80's with who I listened a lot to Over The Edge, it was a period that we used to get a bunch of magic mushrooms in the fall and dried them so we had a big pot filled for the year, so we could trip a little whenever we wanted and sell some for weed. Music was a special experience if you were tripping, it could lift you up very high, with the sunshine coming in, and he had this fantastic hippie-ish room with many colours and great things around, painted walls, floors, etc. It all made for a wonderful experience!

    This is great, this was never on Dutch television, so I don't know the series, but I love it! In the '70s/80s we still saw things like Are You Being Served, Fawlty Towers, Monty Python, Tommy Cooper, Catweazle, The Young Ones, Benny Hill, Lucy Ball, Laurel & Hardy, Charlie Chaplin, etc. and Dutch series and programs. The VPRO was always great (and still is, but that period was very good!) They made progressive/intellectual and confronting television with lots of amazing (&rough) humor, great period!

'72 Cleveland Auditorium, the other half of Symphony Hall where you performed Journey to the Center of the Earth! American commerical theme songs was the encore which got you another standing ovation. You said thanks but we have no more material for a band with orchestra. The fellow next to me yelled out, Play it Again and you performed the entire first half of the Journey album again! My introduction to Rick Wakeman as a solo performer.

    When it comes to blues, quite often less is more with guitar but Alvin Lee somehow gets away with throwing

      @@oldtimetinfoilhatwearer I never said that throwing out 100 notes when 10 will do is a good thing. I said Alvin got away with it.
      If I'm understanding you correctly you're not saying that old blues should be copied verbatim. If that was the case blues
      would have died off a long time ago. Think of how Stevie Ray Vaughan's debut record gave the blues a much needed
      boost. Unfortunately, it also produced a flock of uninspiring copy cats. Most African/American bluesmen didn't change
      their ways, with the major exception of Buddy Guy, who seemed to want to become a rock star. Thankfully, he's back to
      playing blues. Fortunately, again, there are white players like Ronnie Earl and Anson Funderburgh, to name a couple, who
      play blues without pyrotechnics. White fans of blues music should take a trip back to Johnny Guitar Watson, Jimmy Dawkins,
      Philip Walker, Albert King, Long John Hunter and others to see how blues was played before SRV gave it a kick in the butt.
