Description

Albert Lee: A Life in Music Albert Lee is a name synonymous with exceptional guitar playing, and this comprehensive biography tells the story of his remarkable career and personal experiences. Born in south London, Lee's musical journey began with skiffle music, a genre that laid the foundations for his unique style and technique. From his early days with Chris Farlowe's Thunderbirds and the British rock and country group Heads, Hands, and Feet, to his work with Eric Clapton, Emmylou Harris, and the Everly Brothers, Lee's career has been marked by collaboration and innovation. This biography explores how Lee's British roots and nomadic Romany heritage have influenced American musical genres, and features 66 photographs from his personal collection.
