Ten Years After

Acclaimed UK blues/heavy rock ‘n’ roll outfit from the 60s, led by virtuosic guitarist Alvin Lee.

Biography

Best known for their epic performance of “I'm Going Home” in the WOODSTOCK film, British blues-rock band Ten Years After was a vital part of the U.K./U.S. rock scene in the hippie era, but over time, their legacy hasn't lasted as well as that of their peers. Led by blazing guitarmeister Alvin Lee, the band debuted in 1967, their psych-tinged blues-rock taking a more accessible tone on 1971's A PLACE IN TIME, which contained their biggest hit, “I'd Like To Change The World.” The band broke up in 1974, with Lee going solo, though there were a couple of brief reunions (one without Lee) in later decades.
