It was Ten years After and Alvin Lee was on of the best guitarists of the day even among all the greats, you know. He was a blues guitarist first. His performance at woodstock of Going Home is in the top five of best recorded performances I have ever seen.

They stole the show at Woodstock.

Not "Ten Years Later" but, correctly, "Ten Years After". The band had a monster set at Woodstock, whereby they became worldwide known.

They were still 'After', 'Later' came after😋🎸

If Alvin were to perform this today (yes, he's passed 2013) I would be appalled if someone tried to force a lyric change to his creation. But I'm sure someone would insist on it in this age of mandated speech.

MOST OF THE BEST GUITARISTS OF THE SIXTIES AND SEVENTIES INCLUDING JEFF BECK JIMMY PAGE AND OTHERS SAID THAT ALVIN LEE HAD THE FASTEST FINGERS OF ANYONE!!!

I remember when I first found this song on the radio and as soon as I heard that riff intro I knew it was gonna be iconic🔥🔥🔥😎👌🏻

Hidden gem LOOL What?? Huge song for many decades. Please turn your mic down. I wanna hear the music at volume and enjoy with you. Hard to do when you come on and are so much louder that music. Go back and listen to your post. They way we want to listen to it. Loud. LOL Keep it up. You are doing a bang up job. But this was a huge band. Remember there was just not many bands then. And there were huge on FM radio and really everywhere. Why they were invited to play at Yasgur's farm.

What does it for me is the guitar. I get goosebumps. Alvin Lee just kills it on this.

first verse(at least) is sarcasm, criticising the anti-hippie and anti-lgbtq bigotry of "these 'different' people are insane". And then criticising the lethargy and lazyness of working class "... so I leave it up to you". Thanks for this.

Saw Alvin Lee perform in a bar in Orlando in 1985. Took my Navy buddies who had no idea what a treat they were in for. Shredded them. 😀

"I'm going home" - Woodstock full length version. A must listen.

Ten Years After’s live performance at Woodstock in 1969 leaves the viewer/listener with an indelible impression of Alvin Lee’s skills.

Always loved the lead guitar from another world, buried in the mix but really driving the song.

The whole album is amazing.✌🏻❤️

I've seen Ten Years After three times. I've seen the Stones twice and Led Zeppelin once. TYA was every bit as enjoyable to me as the others live. And I'm huge Stones and Zeppelin fans. Alvin Lee killing it with his lightning-fast licks, and Leo Lyons matching him on the bass. They'd blow the roof off.

I think a lot of modern listeners don't quite understand the lyrics are about apathy rather than resigning to the idea we can't change anything. The album was a breakthrough into the mainstream for Ten Years After. The band and Alvin Lee did plenty of note and before this album. Fantastic stuff!

One of my all-time favorite LP’s & singles. Alvin Lee was a guitar god who had one of the greatest performances at Woodstock. Loved his solo career, and LP with Mylon Lefevre. Love your reaction. ✌️❤️🎶

I love your videos, honest reactions with someone that actually pays attention to the tracks.

One of my favorite bands when I was a kid. Alvin Lee was great. Along with Humble Pie, Jethro Tull, and The Who.
