Torrent: Alvin Lee - On the Road to Freedom (1973) and Still On the Road to Freedom (2012) mp3@320 {1337x}-kawli
Description:



Born December 19, 1944 England. Died March 6, 2013 in Spain.

ALVIN LEE began playing guitar age 13 and formed the core of the band Ten Years After by aged 15. Originally influenced by his parent's collection of jazz and blues records, it was the advent of rock and roll that truly sparked his interest and creativity, and guitarists like Chuck Berry and Scotty Moore provided his inspiration.

The Jaybirds, as Lee's early band was called, were popular locally and had success in Hamburg, Germany, following the Beatles there in 1962. But it wasn't until the band moved to London in 1966 and changed its name to TYA that international success beckoned. The band secured a residency at the legendary Marquee Club, and an invitation to the famous Windsor Jazz & Blues Festival in 1967 led to their first recording contract. The self titled debut album surprisingly received play on San Francisco's underground radio stations and was enthusiastically embraced by listeners, including concert promoter Bill Graham who invited the band to tour America for the first time in the summer of 1968. Audiences were immediately taken with Lee's distinctive, soulful, rapid fire guitar playing and the band's innovative mix of blues, swing jazz and rock, and an American love affair began. TYA would ultimately tour the USA 28 times in 7 years, more than any other U.K. band.

Appearing at the famed Woodstock Festival, Lee's virtuoso performance was one of the highlights and remains today a standard for many other guitarists. Captured on film in the documentary of the festival, his inspired playing catapulted him into superstardom, and soon the band was playing arenas and stadiums around the globe.

TYA had great success, releasing ten albums together, but by 1973 Lee was feeling limited by the band's style. With American gospel singer Mylon LeFevre and a host of rock talents like George Harrison, Steve Winwood, Ron Wood and Mick Fleetwood , he recorded and released On The Road To Freedom, a highly acclaimed album that was at the forefront of country rock.

Throughout it all, Alvin Lee managed to stay true to himself, making the music without outside influence or expectations. On his 2012 CD "Still On the Road to Freedom" he takes the listener on an musical journey to the past and present and back again, enthralling us with his talent and music and proving without a doubt that he can do it his way...and still deliver the goods.

Still on the Road to Freedom doesn’t rely on an all-star cast. Keeping close to the simplicity of roots traditions, Lee’s group is Pete Pritchard (bass), Richard Newman (drums), and Tim Hinkley (keyboard). Together, they touch quite a few musical bases from very old schools. For example, the beautiful, haunting title track is not only pure Ten Years After, it’s a reminder Lee was and is a lyricist who has something to say, in this case how the road to freedom never ends. “Back in ’69” is another standout where Lee tells us we’ve gotten older and have lost the values of peace and love once so cherished by a generation.

In the main, however, Still on the Road to Freedom is a musical homage to many of Lee’s inspirations. Lee blows Jimmy Reed-ish harp on the straight up blues of “Save My Stuff," a nod to Big Bill Broonzy, Sonny Terry, and Brownie McGhee. The happy, shuffling rockabilly of “I’m a Lucky Man” is another tip to Lee’s early rock mentors. Remember, Ten Years After got its name in 1966 in honor of Elvis Presley’s breakout year, 1956.
