RIP Alvin Lee and Kenny Ball

[Prospero]

Two very different british musical talents died this month.

Alvin Lee, guitarist with Ten Years After, after routine surgery went wrong.
The high point of his career - playing Woodstock.

And the trad jazz man Kenny Ball. This was his greatest hit.

RIP both. I'll particularly miss Lee, who has been a fave of mine since 1969 (pre-Woodstock: Sssh and Stonedhenge). TYA's finest album: Cricklewood Green.
