This is one of the most talented groups of all time. Albert Lee is one of those guitarists that just blows my mind. He's out of this world, but every one in this group was that good too.
That was "Alvin Lee" with 10 years after at Woodstock. Albert Lee toured with Clapton in the 70's when EC was all strung out and couldn't play, please don't confuse the two... there's no comparison... Lee rules. heheheh
Wow, what a set and the energy here is as good as it gets. Emmy always picks such great bands; Alberts solo is one of the greatest. thanks so much for sharing. I can listen to this over and over; never tiring.
Actually, it is the band that had command. They hadn't practised whatsoever. Emmylou walked on stage and the band filled in without notes. They just blended and ohhhhh...how they blended.
Albert lee the best country picker of them all.The bass player was,nt so hot though he hits some bum notes but it did,nt put Albert off.Emmy Lou,s a beautiful singer and great song writer country music at its best.
I agree, I've never heard anything better than the original ISB, not even the remaster which kind of has some bits of the excellent guitar work a little buried in the back.
Agreed w/luciobar1980 and lol poor Emmy I've never seen her with a perm and mullet. Her voice is always great though, super guitar is right too. I don't like covers either but it's fine when she covers anything involving Gram's work.
Oh god... the glorious voice of Emmylou, AND Albert Lee at full bore... It's almost too much. Albert is one of those guys who can almost make me want to quit playing guitar.
HEYY have you heard the version on Albert's Heartbreak Hill Album. Al starts on acoustic then you get solos from Brad Paisley & Vince Gill,Buddy Emmons and a trademark echo solo from Albie.
Vince Gill takes the prize imo , his tone just stings
Nice to you mnemonyxx , to share those vids here , from that definitely " Legendary Wembley Show " !!! I must add , it ' s really one of the biggest live version i heard ( so Far ) ... from that Gram's classic !!! Thanks Emmy , thanks Albert , tank ya all ; D ... We can find the Emmylou " Enactron Truck Studio Version " ; ) on the " Luxury Liner " album .... of course , andaaa ... recommend it , oooh yeah !!!
I do believe albert hit a bum note on the end bar, but i'm just being picky. Still wonderful

Impressed! I shudder to recall how much effort and expense went into finding a copy of LHI 20001 in 1977. :-)

But would you know about it if Ms. Harris hadn't covered? Just musing hypothetically. Thanks for the comment.

My favorite version of "Luxury Liner" -- Emmylou and Albert, flawless and the rest of the band, solid. Perfection ... What fun to watch.
