Good grief....GOOD GRIEF!!!!!!! This solo is just the sickest guitar solo i've ever heard!!!! And the vocal is amazing also! The fact Alvin Lee was in the shadows of Hendrix, Page, Clapton, and Beck is down right shameful, because Lee was every bit as good as they were.

If you like this type of solo listen to Johnny Winter ESP. a slow blues like It's My Own Fault etc. Or listen to Cream Live alb. version of Sleepy Time Time. Prob. The best the best classic slow blues live solo because the timing is other worldly. Fast isn't what makes your heart go into your throat. BTW I was at this concert.

When I first heard Ten Year After without a doubt as its name reflects, it is a rock band whose music was ahead of its time, well focused sounds, and strident and powerful sticky rhythms indicated that they seemed not to be from this world. Topics such as help me, Good Morning Little School Girl, I´m go Home, I love to chance the world show Alvin Lee's skill and mastery in the Guitar both in accelerated rhythms and in ballads. a great phenomenon! He will always be remembered as a strong pioneer of rock and heavy metal

Thanks for the upload. There are other extraordinary versions of "Help Me" by TYA, for instance the one at The Marquee but IMHO this onenis even better. It is hard to say when Alvin Lee and TYA reached their peak musically speaking but at the end of the 1960s and the early 1970s they were sublime. It'd be great to get the actual videoclip of this performance at Filmore East (1970).

Without question the most extravagant and powerful live version of "Help Me" by TYA. Alvin Lee's performance combines a true feel for jazz and blues rock with some incredibly fast guitar work. ;) The 9-minute guitar solo that everyone in here talks about begins at 3:19, it intensifies at 6:23, and it gets completely distorted at 9:29... But, alas, at 12:37 it's over! Original song credits goes to Sonny Boy Williamson II., Willie Dixon and Ralph Bass.

They were my 4th favorite band, but they didn't have enough outstanding songs, a lot of really good ones. They needed to do more songs like this like Stevie Ray Vaughn did to make it big in other places besides England. Alvin was really into 50s music and even jazz, but that doesn't cut it in the 60s and 70s, and this genre was his best sounding one, yet it seems he wasn't as convinced.

I think I like heavier and melodic songs as a rule, Status Quo was my favorite, and through the album called Status Quo in America, "Blue For (the rest of) You" everywhere else, their sound was almost always heavy and melodic, music to my ears. But they still were my 4th favorite band for the outstanding songs I liked were among my favorites. Status Quo, Nazareth, Foghat, Ten Years After, and then a tie for 5th, with about 5 bands. Lol.
