At the age of 68 Alvin Lee passed away in Spain after “unforeseen complications following a routine surgical procedure” to correct an atrial arrhythmia. His extensive career saw him tour the world multiple times, release 21 studio albums, record 4 live albums and earned him the title “the fastest guitar in the West”. Through all of that, he stayed true to himself, making the music he wanted without outside influence or expectations earning him fans across the globe. At the time of his death, he had a sold-out show booked in Paris for early April and talked about recording a blues album with top musicians in the U.S.
