Sleep well Alvin. Guitar and singer great. We saw him and Ten Years After in the bay area in 1973 sitting about 40 ft. away! Behind the neck and playing with his teeth solo and all. Rock On forever! painman.

What a shame. He will be missed. Yesterday I bought his album In Tennessee - great album with a rockabilly theme featuring some of Elvis' side men.

One of my favorites, sorry to hear he's gone. I think every song on A Space in Time is good and listen to 'em all the time.

And if I don't

Get to Heaven.

And I go down,

There below.

Better be a guitar,

When I get there.

Or I will

Refuse to go!

Brings new meaning to his famous words, "I'm going home."

I'd love to change the world, but I don't know what to
Do. So I'll leave it up to you.

Thanks a lot Alvin, R.I.P.
