Freightrain Posted March 26, 2012 Share Posted March 26, 2012 It's not actually Ten Years After, it's just Alvin Lee solo. Not sure how I found out about the song? Maybe was on the radio back in the 80's? The whole album is good. Quote Larry 1959 B61 Liv'n Large......................

JumperAndSon Posted March 27, 2012 Author Share Posted March 27, 2012 That Alvin Lee song is pretty cool. There was a good George Strait song that mentioned "Sailing Detroit Diesel Pirate Ships" but I can't remember the name of it.Ben Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/24107-detroit-diesel-the-band/#findComment-110475 Share on other sites More sharing options...

I recognized Alvin Lee's name but there is no way I made that connection on my own. 25 years ago maybe, but not now.

Freightrain Posted March 27, 2012 Share Posted March 27, 2012 Actually, the video has "Ten Years After" in the beginning of it. The messages on Youtube note that it is wrong. I'm not that familiar with who he was back in the day, just liked the song/album. Whoever posted the video made the mistake. Quote Larry 1959 B61 Liv'n Large......................

I thought '86 (or '89 as the video states) was kinda late but apparently they were together for quite a few years. I learned that on the ever reliable, always accurate Wikipedia.http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ten_Years_After Quote Jim Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/24107-detroit-diesel-the-band/#findComment-110625 Share on other sites More sharing options...
