Our Take
Our Take
Skipping any beatnik pretensions, a bunch of blues-rockers who call themselves Ten Years After hit Seattle in '69 like a ton of bricks. With a sound as heavy as Bonham's drum kit and enough psychedelic vibes to make you think you've accidentally dropped acid, this live album captures the raw energy and virtuosity of a band on the cusp of superstardom.
Frontman Alvin Lee's guitar playing is nothing short of electric, melting faces and breaking ears in the best possible way. His solos are so blistering, you'll swear your speakers are smoking. The rhythm section of Leo Lyons on bass and Ric Lee on drums keep things tight and punchy, giving the whole performance a driving force that is impossible to resist.
Tracks like "Good Morning Little Schoolgirl" and "I Can't Keep from Crying Sometimes" showcase the band's ability to blend traditional blues with garage rock, creating a sound that is uniquely their own. And let's not forget Chick Churchill on keys, adding a touch of psychedelia to the mix that elevates the whole experience.
Sure, the recording quality might be a bit rough around the edges, but that only adds to the charm and authenticity of the album. Ten Years After may not have been as household a name as some of their contemporaries, but on the evidence of this blistering set, they damn well should have been. So plug in, turn up, and let yourself be transported back to a time when rock 'n' roll was king.
