    Did my due diligence so I don't think that his is a db, ect ect.

    Alvin Lee the lead guitarist for Ten Years After - one of the great late 60's bands.

    I'd Love To Change The World was their signature song which I was surprised to read in obit that Lee did not like because he considered it pop music.

    If it's not posted in the Anything Goes section, it doesn't count.

    I'd Love To Change The World may have been Ten Years After's biggest hit, but their signature moment was the performance of I'm Going Home at Woodstock.

    Anyway, RIP to a damn fine guitarist.

    Nice link. After reacquainting myself with his work it seems like Alvin Lee was under appreciated as one of the greats. I would take Ten Years After over The Band any day.

    Nice part of the late 60's soundtrack.
