<P> In 1966, The Jaybirds moved to London to back The Ivy League . In the same year, Chick Churchill joined the group as keyboard player . That November, the quartet signed a manager, Chris Wright, and changed their name to Blues Trip . Using the name Blues Yard they played one show at the Marquee Club supporting the Bonzo Dog Doo - Dah Band . They again changed their name, to Ten Years After--in honour of Elvis Presley, an idol of Lee . (This was ten years after Presley's successful year, 1956). Some sources claim that the name was pulled by Leo Lyons from a magazine, advertising a book, Ten Years After The Suez (referring to the Suez Crisis). </P> <P> The group was the first act booked by the soon - to - be Chrysalis Agency . It secured a residency at the Marquee, and was invited to play at the Windsor Jazz Festival in 1967 . That performance led to a contract with Deram, a subsidiary of Decca--the first band Deram signed without a hit single . In October 1967 they released the self - titled debut album, Ten Years After . </P> <P> In 1968, after touring Scandinavia and the United States, Ten Years After released a second album, the live Undead, with the noteworthy song, "I'm Going Home". They followed this in February 1969 by the studio issue Stonedhenge, a British hit that included another well - known track, "Hear Me Calling" (it was released also as a single, and covered in 1972 by the British glam rock rising stars, Slade). In July 1969, the group appeared at the Newport Jazz Festival, in the first event rock bands were invited to . Between 26--27 July 1969, they appeared at the Seattle Pop Festival held at Gold Creek Park . On 17 August, the band performed a breakthrough American appearance at Woodstock; their rendition of "I'm Going Home" featuring Alvin Lee as lead singer, was featured in both the subsequent film and soundtrack album and catapulted them to star status . </P> <P> In 1970, Ten Years After released "Love Like a Man", the group's only hit in the UK Singles Chart, where it peaked at #10 . It was the first record issued with a different playing speed on each side: a three - minute edit at 45rpm, and a nearly eight - minute live version at 33rpm . This song was on the band's fifth album, Cricklewood Green . In August 1970, Ten Years After played the Strawberry Fields Festival near Toronto, and the Isle of Wight Festival 1970 . </P>
