Gone Home

Some would remember this and then, Alvin's now back home for good.

Although I was just a toddler at the time, I still keep in my deepest one of the greatest guitar licks of all time, more than Hendrix at the same venue, sure I tell it inspired a great part of my whole adolescence.

I hope I have more ten years to get back home like he did 11 years 3 weeks ago..

Actually I know very little of Alvin Lee but he does stand out. Remember "Night of the Guitars"? I always liked his contribution most:

it's official: RIP now standing for Rock'In Paradise

go baby go

yeah, after hearing of his death, I had to youtube his Woodstock performance. He played the same lick over and over but it just sounded different every time.. That got me to watch the entire Hendrix performance.

Sad to hear this, but I am sure he is happy now.
I saw him at the Vienna Stadtfest in the late 80's, the show was great!

P.S.:
Is there a chance to meet someone of you (I read that Jereny will be there) for a cup of coffee - not wine ;-) - at the LAC 2013 in Graz?

i'll try to be there, sure. as amatter of fact, there's a workshop which is assigned to yours truly :)

i am a coffee lover as am of beers, wines and single-malt whiskies :P though i don't quite remember austrian coffee being ranked that high last time i've been around (late 80s, Salzburg, some tea/coffee shop beneath alleged Mozart's birth place) :) nevertheless

cheers
