Alvin Lee one of the most underrated guitarists of all time. I could go on and on but if you know him, you know how I feel.

I won't post any video here. Not what this thread is for. I will post it in the January Music thread.

Here's a link though for you ruel24. One that might have slipped by you.

It is so hard to pick a top 10 listing - some of my favourite bands have several albums that I would hate to be without or to have never heard. Still, here's my must-have list:

01. Midnight Oil - 10,9,8,7,6,5,4,3,2,1
02. KISS - Alive! (the first of their 4 live releases)
03. Pink Floyd - The Wall
04. The Doors - L.A. Woman
05. Red Hot Chilli Peppers - Californication
06. Cream - Disraeli Gears
07. AC/DC - Dirty Deeds Done Dirt Cheap (gotta love an album with "Big Balls" on it's track list)
08. Deep Purple - Machine Head
09. Iron Maiden - The Number of the Beast
10. Sex Pistols - Never Mind the Bollocks, Here's the Sex Pistols

 Hello Ika. I've seen TD probably 25 to 30 times since 1977. They always have the most perfect sound quality for live gigs.

I still can't give anything even remotely definitive but these would probably fit in there somewhere

(in no order)
Uriah Heep, Magicians birthday
Deep Purple, Made in Japan
Soundgarden, Badmotorfinger
Ozzy, The Ozzman commeth
Iron Maiden, Stranger in a strange land
Led Zeppelin, The song remains the same
Johnny Cash (too hard to pick one)
Chris Rea, Road to Hell
Larry Norman, So Long Ago the Garden

This will need to be revised tomorrow, or possibly in a few minutes ;D 
Plan to be spontaneous tomorrow.

4. The Ilse of Wight Festival, the one with Alvin Lee doing "I'm Goin' Home", just to hear that again!

You sure you weren't referring to the classic Woodstock version? God I love me some Alvin Lee! What a freakin' guitarist...

No, in fact the Woodstock one was "great". The Ilse of Wight one went a couple of light years further!

joechimp, thanks for that one, I'm listening now.

and again
