Just curious, are you claiming that Leslie west is even in the same league as Alvin Lee? Wow, I have heard everything now.

[@loulasher]

@@david1044 As I understand it, Leslie was always the loudest guitarist on stage in these kinds of situations. I think that's what he's referring. I think Leslie's phrasing, and his playing Felix's tunes, is inspiring, though he had limitations that are easy for some to focus on. It seems like people who took lessons with him found it changed their playing and their approach to building solos (it seems that was his focus, unsurprisingly)

[@sylvesterbestertester1013]

Leslie's had his guitar hooked up to an old simple style of effect and it always sounded so powerful. He could play one note and it sounded like a freight train just rolled in. He said once he liked playing leads you could remember them and basically hum every note. Just loved his sound. And of course Lee will always be one of the most underrated rock and blues guitarist ever. When the greats are mentioned, you can't leave him out or your list is incomplete. Can't believe these guys are gone.

What a treat to see Leslie West, great player with a kick ass style, almost like he's playing with a slide. I like how he moves about the stage so easily like he would in his own living room. The one guitarist up there that I think about all the time is (who else?) Alvin Lee. R I P mate!

[@spiderreed350]

If I had to pick 2 I'd go with Led and Alvin,no doubt.

[@lastrada52]

I always enjoyed Alvin Lee's vocals & guitar. Lee really shines as vocalist in this live show. What a true rock voice. Up there with Presley, Jim Morrison, John Lennon & yeah, even Jerry Lee Lewis. Many of his tracks were fiery. Leslie West is always incredible. Steve Hunter & the others all monsters of guitar. I also admired the reason Alvin called his band Ten Years After. He said the band formed 10 years after Elvis Presley. Appropriate. RIP Spirit's Randy California also.

[@roberthamill1277]

Steve Hunter, Steve Howe of Yes, two of my favorites. Hunter, along with Dick Wagner, provide the greatest dual lead guitars I've ever heard on the Intro to Sweet Jane, on Lou Reed Rock and Roll Animal, and, starting with Billion Dollar Babies, joined Alice Cooper along with Wagner.

[@andrewcarpenter3991]

The guitar solos on the non acoustic version of 'Heroin' on 'Rock and Roll Animal' live is some of my favorite guitar work ever. I still love the acoustic version by The Velvet Underground but this live version makes me so happy.

[@ElrondHubbard_1]

Yes, it's interesting how Steve could have ended up as "the acoustic rhythm guitar guy". I'm wondering if he volunteered for some sort of "Steve Howe reason". Howe can certainly play and write rock and roll tunes, but maybe he thought his lead style would stand out too much / not fit in or something.
