Album Notes & Community Reviews

Stepping away from the frantic, high-speed boogie of their Woodstock era, Alvin Lee and company embraced a remarkably mellow, significantly more acoustic direction. 'A Space in Time' is wonderfully melodic and subtly psychedelic, utilizing beautifully uplifting, deeply conscious folk-blues textures to drive its iconic, radio-friendly smash 'I'd Love to Change the World'.

Genres

Descriptors: melodic, political, conscious, bluesy, guitar-led
