Yes. Half of the band are the original members! Bands change line-ups all the time. Alvin Lee left TYA long before he passed away and TYA continued. Great though he was, TYA were always a four piece that involved all of them in the songs, playing live, and creating the sound they did - the combination of the driving bass lines and fluid keys was always just as much what made them stand out. Should AC/DC stop being AC/DC because Bon Scott died? Just one example but there are hundreds of bands where key personnel chose to leave....
@@trevorcotterell3055 LMBO stop with the comparrison to AC/DC Bon Scott was the singer ALL the others were originals. And none of these guys are i dont see Ric Lee, they didnt have a left handed bass player, I dont see Chick Churchill. This is a JOKE !
I can guarantee that the drummer there is Ric Lee and the keyboard player is Chick Churchill. I booked them for this event, I introduced them, I talked with them before and after the show. Current (and has been for some years now) bass player is Colin Hodgkinson, veteran of numerous hugely influential bands.
It was a very good moment at the festival when they played this.
How can a band without its main MAN call themselves Ten Years After? Is there anyone from the original band in this lineup Roadies dont count

GAWD. I was there. This was a magical moment. Marcus Bonfanti is more than a match for Alvin Lee.
