Cricklewood Green provides the best example of Ten Years After's recorded sound. On this album, the band and engineer Andy Johns mix studio tricks and sound effects, blues-based song structures, a driving rhythm section, and Alvin Lee's signature lightning-fast guitar licks into a unified album that flows nicely from start to finish. Cricklewood Green opens with a pair of bluesy rockers, with "Working on the Road" propelled by a guitar and organ riff that holds the listener's attention through the use of tape manipulation as the song develops. "50,000 Miles Beneath My Brain" and "Love Like a Man" are classics of TYA's jam genre, with lyrical verses setting up extended guitar workouts that build in intensity, rhythmically and sonically. The latter was an FM-underground radio staple in the early '70s. "Year 3000 Blues" is a rural edged romp sprinkled with Lee's sci-fi lyrics, while "Me and My Baby" concisely showcases the band's complex licks better than any other TYA studio track, and features a tasty keys solo by Chick Churchill. It has a feel similar to the extended pieces on side one of the live album Undead. "Circles" is a hippie-ish acoustic guitar piece, while "As the Sun Still Burns Away" closes the album by building on another classic guitar-organ riff and more sci-fi sound effects.
All said it's one of Ten Years After's best Lp's...complete release form here with the RARE poster!!!
