Our Take

In the immortal words of Alvin Lee himself, "I'm going home, back to the place where I belong." And after listening to his electrifying live album, "Live In Vienna," it's clear that home is on stage, shredding his guitar like a man possessed.

From the opening notes of "Good Morning Little Schoolgirl," Lee grabs the audience by the ears and doesn't let go for a moment. His guitar solos are lightning-fast, his vocals soulful and raw. It's like watching a master craftsman at work, weaving intricate tapestries of sound with every strum and every scream.

The energy of the live recording is infectious, making you feel like you're right there in the front row, headbanging along with the crowd. Songs like "Choo Choo Mama" and "I Can't Keep From Crying Sometimes" are delivered with a ferocity that makes you wonder how Lee's fingers don't catch fire from the friction of his playing.

But it's not all about pyrotechnics and virtuoso guitar work. Lee and his band show a softer side on tracks like "Slow Blues in C" and "I Woke Up This Morning," where the emotion in his voice is palpable.

In the end, "Live In Vienna" is a testament to Alvin Lee's enduring talent and showmanship. It may have been recorded decades ago, but the music still feels fresh and vital today. So grab your air guitar, crank up the volume, and get ready to rock out with one of the greatest guitarists of all time.

About the artist

Alvin Lee

Ah, Alvin Lee, where do we even begin? The legendary guitarist and frontman of Ten Years After has been rocking our world since the late 1960s, and he shows no signs of slowing down. With his lightning-fast fingers and distinctive vocal style, Lee has become one of the most iconic figures in the world of blues rock. Born in Nottingham, England, in 1944, Lee first picked up a guitar at the age of 13 and never looked back. His early influences included the likes of Chuck Berry, Buddy Holly, and Elvis Presley, but it was his own unique blend of blues, rock, and jazz that truly set him apart from the pack. In 1967, Lee formed Ten Years After with fellow bandmates Leo Lyons, Ric Lee, and Chick Churchill, and the rest, as they say, is history. Their breakout performance at the Woodstock Music Festival in 1969 catapulted them to international stardom, and Lee's scorching rendition of "I'm Going Home" has since become the stuff of legend. But Lee's musical prowess doesn't stop at the stage - he's also a talented songwriter and producer, with a string of hit albums and singles to his name. From the raw energy of "A Space in Time" to the soulful grooves of "Rock & Roll Music to the World," Lee's discography is a testament to his versatility and creativity. In short, Alvin Lee is a force to be reckoned with in the world of rock music. With his passion, talent, and unrivaled stage presence, he continues to captivate audiences around the globe and inspire generations of musicians to come. So here's to you, Alvin - keep on rocking in the free world.
