Good morning! I'm looking for information on the band Ten Years After. I remember it from my teen years, but haven't heard much about it since.
I think they stopped after the guitartist died after surgery.
Alvin Lee? I'm sorry to hear that! Terrific lead guitarist! When did he die? Was the band still together at the time he died?
I don't know what year he died.  He was 68 when he died.  He did leave the band in 1973 to focus on a solo career.
Ah, OK. So the band broke up in '73, not too long after I lost touch with them. They were very good, and Lee was an underrated Blues guitarist, stuck in the shadow of Hendrix, Clapton, Page, and Beck.  
I hear his solos at Woodstock were amazing.
They were. You can find them online, I think. If you're into guitar, I believe they're essential!
His part in I'm Going Home was phenomenal.
Yep. One of many great solos! I hope he's rediscovered one day. It would be a real shame for his playing to go unnoticed or get lost.
He released Still on the Road to Freedom right before he died.
Didn't know that. I'll have to pick it up if it's still available. I probably missed a lot of his work over the years, and I feel like I need to catch up now.
