Alvin Lee – Albums Collection

Alvin Lee - Albums Collection

As with many of the other English beat groups of the ’60s, Alvin Lee cut his musical teeth in Hamburg, Germany in a band called the Jaybirds. By 1966, back in England, he had changed the name of his band to Ten Years After and was rapidly becoming a major attraction because of the virtuosity of his solo work. Most Americans first became familiar with Lee through his appearance at Woodstock, although he remained active throughout the decades that followed; among his releases were 1974’s In Flight, 1986’s Detroit Diesel, and 1996’s Live in Vienna. Alvin Lee died on March 6, 2013 due to complications from a routine surgical procedure. Continue reading “Alvin Lee – Albums Collection”

Texas Hurricane features six of Vaughan’s classic albums – Texas Flood, Couldn’t Stand the Weather, Soul to Soul, In Step, Family Style and The Sky Is Cryin’ – specially remastered for SACD by Sterling Sound.
