jff Posted March 6, 2013 Share Posted March 6, 2013 My former boss was a stagehand for Bill Graham Productions in the '70s. He was choked by Alvin Lee once when he dared to enter Ten Years Afters' dressing room at Winterland to see if they needed more beer. RIP Alvin. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
NoJ Posted March 6, 2013 Author Share Posted March 6, 2013 Didnt know Alvin was the testy sort. One can learn all kinds of stuff on the internets. For instance, Lammy hates onions. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Plumplechook Posted March 6, 2013 Share Posted March 6, 2013 Damn that guy could play fast. RIP Alvin Lee. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Moss Posted March 7, 2013 Share Posted March 7, 2013 The first real "shredder". I'm still trying to learn how to play I'm going home. I remember Alex Bennett saying he was one of the smartest guys he ever interviewed. Who knew? RIP Alvin. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
LouieB Posted March 7, 2013 Share Posted March 7, 2013 This is sad news; as always the guy wasnt that old. Despite his reputation for being a fast guitar player, he didn't want to be known as that. LouieB Quote Link to post Share on other sites
