5.0 out of 5 stars An Essential (But Often Overlooked) Document of Its Time, January 14, 2008
By Caesar M. Warrington (Lansdowne, PA United States) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)    (VINE VOICE)   
Before degenerating into the musical masturbation of whining heavy metal guitars and boring drum solos, the socalled British Blues Boom of the mid-60s was a passionate and innovative scene. Ten Years After's 1967 eponymous debut is a remarkable albeit often overlooked document of that time.

Hearing of Ten Years After's reputation as one of the best live blues-rock acts around, Decca's A&R man/producer Mike Vernon snapped them up without having so much as a demo. Once they got into the studio, the group put together an album showing themselves as firmly grounded in jazz as they were in blues: "Advenures of a Young Organ," an original collaboration between organist Chick Churchill and guitarist Alvin Lee, owes more to Jimmy Smith and Wes Montgomery than Booker T and Steve Cropper; the band's version of Al Kooper's "I Can't Keep From Crying," goes even further, proving Alvin Lee's debt to George Benson as well.

In it's original format the album opened with the speedy blues of "I Want To Know" (a number credited to one 'McLeod,' who was actually Manfred Mann vocalist Paul Jones); it closed with "Help Me," a chilling 10 minute rendition of Sonny Boy Williamson's "Help Me, Baby."

This CD reissue includes the original debut album, plus six bonus tracks from 1968. Except for the previously unreleased version of Woody Herman's "Woodchoppers Ball," these additional songs are all Alvin Lee originals: "Portable People," "The Sounds," "Rock Your Mama," and "Spider In My Web," come from the group's first two singles, while "Hold Me Tight," was previously available only on the 1972 compilation ALVIN LEE & COMPANY.

For this reissue, along with the original scribblings of Marquee Club manager John C. Gee, are updated liner notes from group drummer Ric Lee, who provides a track-by-track commentary and some interesting insight into the band's early history.

5.0 out of 5 stars Groovy cd, July 25, 2005
By bigchet "fergenstein1386" (Madison, Ohio United States) - See all my reviews
Ten years after is one of the most underated bands around. Mostly known for there performance at woodstock or there FM hit "i'd like to change the world". This there first album is pure blues and jazz unlike there later rock and psychedelia. I've played this cd at work and around family and friends and everyone likes it. They're like who are these guys? Great cd from a great band.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great feeling, July 3, 2007
As for the other CD's of Ten Years After I bought in the last months I am enthusiast of the great feeling this record gives me.
The quality of their music is already full throttle as they are off their excellent start: no need for gradual growth of their thypical style.
The risk in this my personal opinion is that I'm influenced by my hystorical musical background: are really TYA a great group? May be their cultural impact wasn't as revolutionary as other English groups in the 60/70's but I do hope that new generations will enjoy this sound
