Epysode 33: "On The Road To Freedom" In this epysode of the Vinyl Relics podcast, we explore the 1973 album "On The Road To Freedom" by Alvin Lee and Mylon LeFevre. A unique fusion of rock, blues, and gospel, this album brings together two powerful musical forces. Featuring guest musicians like George Harrison, Steve Winwood, Ron Wood, Mick Fleetwood, Boz Burrell, Jim Capaldi and more. We dive into the stories behind the album, its standout tracks, and its place in the evolution of both artists' careers. Don’t miss this deep dive into a classic collaboration that shaped the sound of the early '70s. I hope you dig "On The Road To Freedom" as much as I do. -Farmer John ===CONNECT & SUPPORT=== Transport yourself into the realm of grooviness by supporting us on Patreon using this link --> patreon.com/FarmerJohnMusic Use this link to follow us on Facebook --> https://www.facebook.com/farmerjohnmusic/ Use this link to follow us on Instagram --> https://www.instagram.com/vinyl.relics.podcast/ Use this link to follow us on TikTok --> https://www.tiktok.com/@vinylrelicspodcast Use this link to follow us on BlueSky --> https://bsky.app/profile/farmerjohnmusic.bsky.social And find us on X here --> @VinylRelicsPod Email me here --> farmerjohnmusic@gmail.com ===LINKS=== I referenced several archived interviews throughout this epysode.
