👏👏👏💕💕💕 What a musician and what a gentleman! This interview needs to be preserved as part of the history of country music. Hats' off the The Captain for letting the great Albert Lee speak without interruptions.
That rendition of Highwayman was enough to give this grown man the chills. What an amazing human and what a wonderful tribute to your late father-in-law. A wonderful reminder of why we do music!
Yes he seems so fresh.. Although he's seen everything, played everything, talked to all the world... he is still a simple man... he could almost say the only person he didn't meet is God, but he remains himself.
Guys, you should probably chop out the performance of Highwayman at the end and re-upload it as a separate video - many people probably won't get to the end of a 2hr video and realise that there's an amazing performance there.
Fair point but fuck em. It’s two hours of pure gold if they don’t want to watch something because it is two hours then they can’t be that interested. I guarantee those people have already wasted two hours today watching cat videos
Yes Albert Lee was and is an amazing guitar player. I had no idea he could play piano so well. Also can’t believe he didn’t sing more. He has a great voice. The performance of highway man was so tasteful done. Loved the interview. Watched it all the way through. Going in now to watch some Albert Lee pickin on u tube. Thank you Albert for the interview and the people who got him to do this. I loved it.
The end of the video, Highwayman, was so, so touching. I had tears in my eyes. And, Albert has a wonderful voice. Thanks for such a wonderful moving interview.
You have to hand it to Albert Lee’s parents for co-signing all those guitar purchases. He sure didn’t let them down. Kudo’s to the captain for this and all the other great interviews and reviews.
Long, long time American fan of Albert's musical talent and guitar chops... but now I'm an even bigger fan, because on top of all that, I see that he's also a fantastic, down to Earth human being. Thank you, Lee, for hosting and posting this video of the brilliant Mr. Albert Lee. As usual, your manners and professionalism were impeccable. Long live, "The Captain Meets..."
I have to say that Captain Lee's interviews have become way more than entertainment. They have become historical documents. Great artists have told there stories here and i believe that the information contained herein will be invaluable to players in the future. Captain Lee has not only become a great interviewer but a custodian of guitar history.
If and when we finally lose Alvin , ( and I hope its not in the next 30 years ) , this could be lifted and played as a straight up homage to his life and amazing career. Fantastic.
For an old guy like me, 72, this stuff is magic. Takes me right back there to the late 50s early 60s. Best time ever to have been a teenager. It's 3 years on 2021 and still worth another look.
Hey Captain if you live forever you will NEVER EVER interview anyone remotely as brilliant and humble as Albert Lee.Im 70 and have never watched a two hour video before this.Love to you from Ireland to you both.
A true guitarhero, a true singer, a true pianoplayer, a true person. I hope Albert Lee keeps playing for many years. And those handful of dislikes should be ashamed of themselves.
I would love to know , from the 29 who gave this the thumbs down , on what planet do you live ? This is pure gold and Highwayman at the end is pure unadulterated pleasure .
Thank you so much!!! This is when grown men cry! This was the interview i was waiting for.....Albert Lee is my biggest influence ever!!!! I bought VHS tapes in the 80/90,s to learn his fingerpicstyle......his "highwayman" version is magic!!!! Thanks to Lee Anderton for make this magical moment to happen!!!! :-) Thanks from Norway!:-)
This version of highwayman is the best EVER. Even better than his own recorded ones. I have to watch this over and over again. This is sooo good. Thank you for this beautiful request.
That was the first time I heard highway man and loved it. I always thought it was another tune without listening to the story and I.was blown away by Albert's rendition. Bravo bravo.
Boy he sure has some great stories. No doubt, he has lived a full life & has played with just about everybody. Never knew he played piano & sang so we'll. Fantastic interview.
Wow. Captain! That was fabulous. Albert is a master musician and entertainer- a talented craftsman who has quietly shaped and influenced music from the inside with decades of hard work and love for the art. Thank you for shining the spotlight on this gem of a man!
what a humble gentleman....well done Andertons...when the dust settles over humanity and names drift off into generational obscurity ...we will have this to reminisce upon. uk.
Ah, me. This interview represents the pinnacle of "Captain Meets..." episodes, and by a long mile as far as I'm concerned. Fantastic stories, a great artist and gentleman, and an ending that brought a tear to more than one eye I am sure. Considering the typically high quality level of these and the great artists that have appeared, I'm not sure I can pay a higher compliment. Bravo, sirs.
How lucky in the world to be in a room with this guy let alone play rhythm on a video!!! This is such an epic look into the honest modesty a guitar genius can have and be so humble and gentle and open with how he got there!! God Save Albert Lee!!
I heard Albert perform live for the first of many times, 27 years ago. I was there early in The Hangar, Galway. He chatted away as he showed me how to properly tie strings so that they would stay best in tune without slipping. At the end of the full-house gig Albert asked me to hold and mind his MusicMan while he wet off to sign autographs ... and yes, I was tempted to run off with the guitar, but of course I didn't. :-) :-)
I can't believe I've only just seen this video. Definitely the best 'Captain Meets' (and that's saying something). Excellently interviewed Lee. Albert Lee is a living legend and such a humble guy. Could've listened to him for another 2 hours. As for Highwayman.. I cried like a baby. It was wonderful. Thank you 🙏
Can't believe i missed this... absolutely beautiful are the only words.... my favorite musician. Albert Lee is a musician's musician and a better human than most. I hope he's around forever! Thanks!
Absolutely fabulous interview thanks so much. Captain gave Albert the odd nudge in typical expert fashion and off we went! What a life and what a musician. I was sobbing all through the Highwayman at the end.
I watched this in silence...loving his stories...loving his guitar work over the years.... then the section at the end struck home with a similar situation I had had a few years ago....got to be honest i was holding it together...just...and then he sang...never heard him sing before...what a voice...lost it completely....wife.."you ok?" ."yes love...I'm fine. .contact lens is just playing up" .......ahem..... absolutely brilliant interview Lee... gave him space to talk ..dropped in at just the right times...best vid on Andertons. Really enjoying the Capt meets series. Thank you.
There are songs I love that I play very seldom because they stimulate my break down and cry reflex. This rendition of The Highwayman by Albert is one of them, . It feels like Albert thought "I remember that clinic and meeting the Captain's pa in law. I'm glad I could make him feel better, This one's for him, and if there is a place we go after we die, maybe he can look down and hear this and be happy." Albert is the kind of guy who would do it and mean it. This was simply the most beautiful things I've heard in some time. Thank you, Albert.
Oh, my goodness! What a treat! Thanks Lee for having Albert there. What an amazing fellow, musician and gentleman! Highwayman was icing on the cake! 😊👍🏻
What a great interview so personable. I saw him back yrs ago in with Emmy Lou. I knew the drummer at the time as well who is now with Dolly. Big time interviewers could in my onion not do the wonderful job you did. You can tell when a guest enjoys the host. And the end I was with you about bought to tears. The mark of true artist. I just took a peek and sat here through the whole thing ... So much for practice tonight . But we all need that inspiration to keep the faith in what we do. Thank You..
What an amazing oral history of early days of British rock. Thanks to the Captain for letting Albert reminisce. Heard Albert recently in LA and he is still fantastic. I could not stay seated when he cut loose. The audience was blown away!
Albert Lee.... It's stunning... Great musician, man and storyteller. Could have listend to his narratives forever. Thanks Anderntons and especially Captain Lee for providing such great and inspiring videos and interviews. Really love it !!
Wow...Albert Lee, I am so blown away...I might just get one of his signature Music Man guitars after watching this video. Such a humble guy for a true Superstar. Don't see that very often anymore, sadly.
Albert ......Old but Gold ............just an amazing musician .Have seen him play many times and felt like burning my guitars afterwards .Ultimately his Piano playing at the end is a great insight into what a talented and sensitive musician he is .Huge Talent and musical feeling .
That was an incredible interview. I feel like I was just taken away back in time to the beginnings of all the musical greats. A great history lesson and wonderful stories ending with a superb piano performance by the great Albert Lee. Well done!
This interview shows us how a humble guitarist from London conquered the world of country music and remains a guitar genius in his 70’s. Next time I visit London, must pop in to Andertons and congratulate the Captain. Alex, in the snowy mountains of Norway.
I've been a fan of Albert since my early teens learning to play the guitar,I had no idea he was such an incredible singer,what a strong voice.I love him even more now which I didn't think was possible.
Captain Lee, now you have to change all the Anderton vid intros to show Albert singing Highway man, I was transfixed, this was the best Captain meets ever! and I am not a country fan
I recently went to see Albert in Liverpool. Absolutely brilliant gig. I met him afterwards and he was remarkably humble. This interview was massively enjoyable and surprisingly moving at the end. Well done Anderson's.
I so enjoyed this interview. I first became a fan of Albert's when I saw him play several times with Chris Farlow & The Thunderbirds in Bedford many years ago and then much later with Hogan's Heroes. Every time I got to chat with him I was struck by his friendliness, his modesty a lack of ego. What a nice person and what a player! I still have an autographed photo of him on display in my studio in which he holds a Music Man Silhouette, a guitar that I too played back in the day. Thanks for posting this.
Had the absolute pleasure to see Albert playing at Lizzotes Newcastle Australia last week. What a talented humble man. He did "Highwayman" on the night. A very moving performance. Thanks Andirons for a great interview.
Saw Albert play in the Kings Hotel in Newport about 25 years ago. I’d never seen anyone play as good as that before right in front of me. Blew me away!
Great to see someone who is such a talented musician is such a lovely, self depreciating fella too. Never knew what a great pianist and singer Albert is either!
I saw Albert Lee, the greatest, the most perfect gentleman of the music world of my days, playing Jimmy Web, in this amazing, unexpected, beautiful presentation, singing like an young man again. I'm old, like him. From where I stand, I can also see the end. This song means a lot to me. I'll never forget this day.
By far the most intriguing and facinating interview on Andertons ever. 2 hours of great stories and what a story teller he is. And yes "those country boys" have incredible techniques. Many many ears ago he did some kind of clinic ( if I remember well) in the Netherlands in which he explained his way of playing. Was stunning to watch & hear.
Great video and what an absolute legend Albert Lee is. I saw his band a couple of years ago and was absolutely blown away!! The sheer musical talent was incredible, along with his story telling etc made the night unforgettable. What a guy! 🙂
Had the privilege of watching this guy play at the Whitstable playhouse with hogans heroes. They were so loud they kept tripping the electricity. After the 3rd or 4th time it happened Albert just picked up his acoustic and finished the set unplugged! what a legend. He also played all the other instruments in the band as well. keyboards drums bass etc etc etc. rock on Albert you are the true hero.
Absolute legend. A monster player, a wonderful musician and a true gent. I was lucky enough to meet him a couple of times in the 90s and he was always so modest and kind. The epitome of tasteful and musical guitar playing.
Wow,that Highwayman rendition was extremely emotional for me.That man sings straight from the center of his heart.
Thank You so much for sharing this.
👏👏👏💕💕💕 What a musician and what a gentleman! This interview needs to be preserved as part of the history of country music. Hats' off the The Captain for letting the great Albert Lee speak without interruptions.
BBC should just give up and start buying these interviews off you. That was...magnificent.
That rendition of Highwayman was enough to give this grown man the chills. What an amazing human and what a wonderful tribute to your late father-in-law. A wonderful reminder of why we do music!
Absolutely.
Albert even at this age has a child in him, making him so full of life!
Awesome job captain!
Yes he seems so fresh.. Although he's seen everything, played everything, talked to all the world... he is still a simple man... he could almost say the only person he didn't meet is God, but he remains himself.
What a life this dude has had. Just Wow!
Guys, you should probably chop out the performance of Highwayman at the end and re-upload it as a separate video - many people probably won't get to the end of a 2hr video and realise that there's an amazing performance there.
I completely agree- it was an incredible performance
Fair point but fuck em. It’s two hours of pure gold if they don’t want to watch something because it is two hours then they can’t be that interested. I guarantee those people have already wasted two hours today watching cat videos
That 2 hours was well worth it to hear Albert tell stories.... What a life!!!
Agreed, absolutely wonderful.
01.57.20
This is the BEST Andertons' video ever.What a gift for guitarists and musicians in general! Thanks so much, Lee!
Easily! One of the most fascinating and amazing interviews I can remember ... TH-cam, TV, or anywhere else
@@Pantalooj couldn't agree more
Still remains the best
Yes Albert Lee was and is an amazing guitar player. I had no idea he could play piano so well. Also can’t believe he didn’t sing more. He has a great voice.

@@jamesmorrow6042 he was also born in the next town over from where I grew up 🙂

Captain Lee has not only become a great interviewer but a custodian of guitar history.
Lee's become a very good interviewer and plays very decent accompaniment too
Yes, he has this weird interview technique whereby he asks a question, and then actually sits and listens to the reply without interrupting.
If and when we finally lose Alvin , ( and I hope its not in the next 30 years ) , this could be lifted and played as a straight up homage to his life and amazing career.
Fantastic.
@@gerrydumbreck2108 It's a little bit less than Ten Years After that we've lost Alvin ;-)
@@bobbynoe1 My bad , I meant Albert.
Wow Albert Lee singing highway man was incredible! What a voice! 🤩🎸
Unreal version of the song....voice sounds unbelievable!
What an honour
That piece at the end was beautiful
For an old guy like me, 72, this stuff is magic. Takes me right back there to the late 50s early 60s. Best time ever to have been a teenager.
It's 3 years on 2021 and still worth another look.
Never heard such a beautiful rendition of Highwayman. What a performance!
Hey Captain if you live forever you will NEVER EVER interview anyone remotely as brilliant and humble as Albert Lee.Im 70 and have never watched a two hour video before this.Love to you from Ireland to you both.
Amazingly talented and humble man. God bless you, Albert.
I always forget what an awesome singer Albert lee is! Such a superb talent
Ladies and gentlemen.......the great Albert Lee......this whole video is just brilliant....a lesson in talent and humbleness.........
A true guitarhero, a true singer, a true pianoplayer, a true person. I hope Albert Lee keeps playing for many years. And those handful of dislikes should be ashamed of themselves.
Fantastic interview with Albert Lee with a superb rendition of Highwayman at the end. 2 hours of sheer bliss from beginning to end. Well done!
I would love to know , from the 29 who gave this the thumbs down , on what planet do you live ? This is pure gold and Highwayman at the end is pure unadulterated pleasure .

Freaking Albert Lee. He came to Nashville and turned us all on our ear. A legend on both sides of the pond. Kudos.
only danny gatton and johnny hiland can come close
A piece of history, a nice, humble man, a supremely fine musician, hats off, folks, hats off....
That was the first time I heard highway man and loved it. I always thought it was another tune without listening to the story and I.was blown away by Albert's rendition. Bravo bravo.
This is classic videography. A true piece of history for guitar players.
What s gifted musician Albert Lee is, amazing.
I'd say skilled more than gifted. He is also a gentleman.
Going to see Albert next week, literally a block from my house and I'm giddy as a child.
Boy he sure has some great stories. No doubt, he has lived a full life & has played with just about everybody. Never knew he played piano & sang so we'll.
Fantastic interview.
Wow. Captain! That was fabulous. Albert is a master musician and entertainer- a talented craftsman who has quietly shaped and influenced music from the inside with decades of hard work and love for the art. Thank you for shining the spotlight on this gem of a man!
What a Storyteller! Brilliant. Loved the show.

I was lucky enough to see and meet Albert the night before he filmed this. What a great musician and a thoroughly nice bloke too boots 👍🏻
The end is absolutely touching and emotional.
Big movie and a great interview of an outstanding musician!
There should have been a disclaimer that the video might make you misty eyed. Dammit!
Highway man is a beautiful song, crying for my own loss but thank you for this amazing interview .
These interviews of guitar legends by The Captain are solid gold.
I can't believe I've only just seen this video. Definitely the best 'Captain Meets' (and that's saying something). Excellently interviewed Lee. Albert Lee is a living legend and such a humble guy. Could've listened to him for another 2 hours. As for Highwayman.. I cried like a baby. It was wonderful. Thank you 🙏
The Best 2Hrs I've Spent In A Long Long Time... Thanks Lee And Albert
Can't believe i missed this... absolutely beautiful are the only words.... my favorite musician. Albert Lee is a musician's musician and a better human than most. I hope he's around forever! Thanks!
Great stories, and fewer and fewer left who can tell them from firsthand. Thank you for letting Albert talk, this is gold.
fossilmatic, you are so correct, that’s a great point. Just letting him talk is what makes it a amazing interview.
Captain, I think we all cried with you at the end. Beautiful tribute to your father-in-law. And thank you for such a great interview with Albert.
If there are awards for interviews this should sweep the boards.
Who hates this? Wow its awesome. What a beautiful tribute from Albert to Claude.Very heart warming. 27 folk with no life or pure hate.
Absolutely fabulous interview thanks so much. Captain gave Albert the odd nudge in typical expert fashion and off we went! What a life and what a musician. I was sobbing all through the Highwayman at the end.
I dunno why, but I could listen to Albert's stories of his life in the music business endlessly. Bring Albert back as a regular if he's game.
I watched this in silence...loving his stories...loving his guitar work over the years.... then the section at the end struck home with a similar situation I had had a few years ago....got to be honest i was holding it together...just...and then he sang...never heard him sing before...what a voice...lost it completely....wife.."you ok?" ."yes love...I'm fine. .contact lens is just playing up" .......ahem..... absolutely brilliant interview Lee... gave him space to talk ..dropped in at just the right times...best vid on Andertons.

This was really enjoyable. Highway man to top it off. What a treat.
What a beautiful interview! This is a fascinating picture of this wonderful man.
This interview shows us how a humble guitarist from London conquered the world of country music and remains a guitar genius in his 70’s. Next time I visit London, must pop in to Andertons and congratulate the Captain. Alex, in the snowy mountains of Norway.
The Captain meets Clapton please! Then I could die in peace.
Angus Young😀
This is my dream too! Such a shame didn't happen.
You only have to call him...he Will come
The Captain meets Macca... ?
Ask Eric why he is so anti Vax!
I've been a fan of Albert since my early teens learning to play the guitar,I had no idea he was such an incredible singer,what a strong voice.I love him even more now which I didn't think was possible.
Captain Lee, now you have to change all the Anderton vid intros to show Albert singing Highway man, I was transfixed, this was the best Captain meets ever! and I am not a country fan
Fully agree!
What a lovely man. When he sings HIGHWAYMAN, he sounds so beautiful, it breaks my heart. Thank you ANDERTON'S.
I recently went to see Albert in Liverpool. Absolutely brilliant gig. I met him afterwards and he was remarkably humble. This interview was massively enjoyable and surprisingly moving at the end. Well done Anderson's.

Lovely guy. And a great performance at the end. Love his voice.
What a treat, the man is a living legend.
I came here because my brother just saw him in Hudson Falls, N,Y. Jan.9th,2019
That piano performance at the end was so special.
The career, the man, the music. Truly inspirational.
Albert Lee, Eric Clapton, Jeff Beck, the Beatles... they all found their inspiration in American music and took it to levels that nobody dreamed of.
You are one very very lucky man Capt. to get to jam with this man Albert Lee !!!
Blessed is more like it though !!!
Fantastic interview, Lee...!
Albert Lee - simply brilliant...No more need be said.
Again, Thanks to all at Anderton's.
Had the absolute pleasure to see Albert playing at Lizzotes Newcastle Australia last week. What a talented humble man. He did "Highwayman" on the night. A very moving performance. Thanks Andirons for a great interview.
We are not Worthy...simply not worthy....a living legend...would still be such a modest statement about Albert Lee....British music legend
I could listen to these stories all day. When these guys are gone, music is just sad, sad, sad.
Mr. Albert Lee, a class act. Great interview Cap10. Getting better and better.
Saw Albert play in the Kings Hotel in Newport about 25 years ago. I’d never seen anyone play as good as that before right in front of me. Blew me away!
What a great interview. Thank you Lee for just letting him talk and the song at the end was just superb.
What a brilliant unrushed unhurried interview astonishing history and time line from Albert..Well done the captain..
Great to see someone who is such a talented musician is such a lovely, self depreciating fella too. Never knew what a great pianist and singer Albert is either!

Many many ears ago he did some kind of clinic ( if I remember well) in the Netherlands in which he explained his way of playing. Was stunning to watch & hear.
This has to be the best Andertons interview ever. Albert Lee is brilliant
Great video and what an absolute legend Albert Lee is. I saw his band a couple of years ago and was absolutely blown away!! The sheer musical talent was incredible, along with his story telling etc made the night unforgettable. What a guy! 🙂

What an absolute wounderful man he is. This is, by far, the best Captain Meets I have seen. An absolute ledgend.
What an amazing interview and insight into Albert Lee’s life ,I feel very honoured to listen to the great man talk.
one of THE MOST RELEVANT interviews in ages. THANK YOU for allowing this man to recount his experiences..!!!
