Ten Years After

Ten Years After

A high-octane debut of British blues. Alvin Lee's breathless guitar speed meets smoky jazz-rock organ for a gritty, late-night club sound.

It's the blues, but played at 1.5x speed with a jazz drummer who won't quit.

A restless, high-velocity exploration of the blues that feels simultaneously sophisticated and raw.

Moments Worth Waiting For
The sudden transition from a traditional blues shuffle into a frantic, jazz-tempo guitar solo on Help Me
The way the organ and guitar trade jagged, improvisational licks during the bridge of I Can't Keep From Crying Sometimes
The sheer speed of the descending guitar runs that close out the final minute of Spoonful
