1. RARE 1970 PROMO Original first pressing in grainy textured gatefold cover . The classic HARD ROCK album released just after standout performance at WOODSTOCK '69 festival .   
2. includes the original printed London/DERAM Records inner sleeve...
3.  
4. One of the most noted of the progressive blues bands to emerge from the U.K.'s Summer Of Love in 1967, Ten Years After arguably reached its peak with its appearance at the Woodstock festival in 1969. 
5. 
   
6. First 1970 release, CRICKLEWOOD GREEN contains the band's hit single, "Love Like a Man," as well as sizzling bluesy guitar workouts by virtuoso Alvin Lee, making it famous. 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. 
7. 
   
8. 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. 
9. 
   
10. "50,000 Miles Beneath My Brain" and "Love Like a Man" are classics of Ten Year After's jam genre, with lyrically meanful verses setting up extended guitar workouts building with intensity, rhythmically and sonically. The latter was an FM-radio staple in the early '70s. 
11. 
    
12. "Year 3000 Blues" is a cool romp sprinkled with Lee's trippy lyrics, while "Me and My Baby" concisely showcases the band's complex licks better than any other Ten Years After studio track, and features a tasty keyboard solo by Chick Churchill. 
13. 
    
14. "Circles" is a hippie-ish 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
