I just heard he died following some routine surgery in Spain. He was one of my favorite players when I was in high school. Saw him open for Black Sabbath in the early 80s. He could really rip it up . .
Ten Years After was the first concert I ever saw at Madison Square Garden.
I was fourteen or fifteen, about 40 years ago.
It was a great concert, as I recall. Of course, I saw a few "other" great concerts there over the years!
RIP Alvin Lee. Watch the Woodstock movie if you have not done that yet.
