Perhaps more from "my generation"....??..??? But Alvin Lee from 10 Years after passed away today.. An amazing guitarist and perhaps more important, someones Dad.

Read about him here.. Reverb Music Blog

I loved 10 Years After and his guitar playing. Now he's goin' home.

What generation are you, 34_40? (I'm 63 y.o. so I was 20 y.o. when Woodstock happened)

I'm just a babe in the woods at 55! I had a cousin your age, while I was growing up I hung around him constantly, he was a huge influence on all things automotive and musically. He had a convertible Mustang with a tape player in the dash and we listened to Big Brother, The Who, Beatles, Stones, Sly Stone and on and on...... so I grew up listening to music older than I was and it became "my" music.

My cousin played bass (stand up), trombone, trumpet and got me started on drums but later I took up guitar. He passed a few years back from Alzhimers... I miss him terribly..

Truly One of the Greats.
