Undead is a live album by Ten Years After, recorded at the small jazz club, Klooks Kleek, in London, May 1968, and released in July of that year. The show combined blues, boogie and jazz playing that merged more traditional rock and roll with 1950s-style jump blues. The album "amply illustrates" Alvin Lee's "eclectic" use of the pentatonic scale mixed with other modalities.[7]

Undead — концертный альбом Ten Years After, записанный в мае 1968 года в небольшом джазовом клубе, Klooks Kleek  (англ.) (рус. в Лондоне и выпущенный в августе того же года. Выступление объединило блюз, буги и джаз, соединившихся с более традиционным рок-н-роллом со стилем джамп-блюза 1950-х годов. Альбом «наглядно иллюстрирует» «эклектичное» использование Элвином Ли пентатонической шкалы, смешанной с другими модальностями[6].
