Alvin Lee- 1 year later

Hi Neal- I thought that was you ;-) I was the guy sitting about 1/2 way back w the long hair, pony tail, and tie-dyed tee shirt. I still have my tickets- thought they might be worth something until the promoters sold off thousands of un-sold tickets they had lying around in a warehouse a few years ago.

Alvin Lee one of the all time greats! Love his music to this day...thanks for bringing up the thread Roscoe1...

Swampwalker,

I thought that was me with the pony tail and tie-dyed shirt! But I truly cannot remember. I do remember the mud after the rain on Sunday. Priceless and unexpected experience.

Neal- Now that you mention it, I think is WAS you. I was having an out of body (and mind) experience at the time. Alvin Lee was amazing; I had seen his band a short time before @ Fillmore East and was very excited to hear them again. I also have vivid memories of Wavy Gravy's "breakfast in bed for 200,000" rap and Grace Slick introducing JA w something like "Now it's time for morning maniac music". Gezz, I sound like an old fart!

I don't usually follow such things, but that "Captain Speed Fingers" (though he was so much more than just that) wasn't included in Rolling Stones 100 greatest guitarists is just so hard to believe, and only goes to show what rubbish such lists are.
