Wow, this definitely caught me off guard.

My nephew is named after this guy. He could'nt have been very old. 62 maybe?

I just googled it. Alvin Lee was 68.

He was a great guitarist.

I was never a huge fan but I do have a handful of Ten Years After albums and Alvin was certainly an impressive guitarist.
