In addition to Pun Landlord Al Murray and Paul Simon's lyrics I have identified a few musical Als
We kick off with Al Garner Selma, Alabama born but Detroit based Soul singer with Just a Touch of Your Hand.
Al Kent was born in Scotland but ran off to New York. Here he is with The Disco Love Orchestra on Where Do I Go From Here
You should all be familiar with Al Stewart of Year of the Cat fame. Today's tune is Sand In Your Shoes.
Please be upstanding for the Reverend Al Green and the classic Soul number that is Let's Stay Together.
Our penultimate Al is Al Montgomery with It Wasn't God Who Made Honky Tonk Angels.

ReplyDeleteI forgot to say on sunday that you posted the Caroline Herring track in place of Terri Hendrix (I found the latter track on youtube)
ReplyDeleteThanks
DeleteDon't think I'll go to the trouble of changing it!
That Al Simmons track has to be my favourite. I'll introduce it to my old fellas coffee meet-up next week. As for You Can Call Me Al - that Paul Simon/Chevy Chase vid is a frequent stopping off point on a late night internet music ramble. Tonight may be no exception!
