What Are You Listening To?

[gryphon]

This was Als seventh album and the one that propelled him to FM radios immortality......................Clever poetic mysterious ( What is the tile track really about Drugs or an incident that happened to Al?),musically well written( what about that piano inro to the title track?)produced by Alan Parsons this showed that Al had really come of age and knew exactly what his audience was and what they wanted.

I have seen this man live and it is accurate to say he is true troubadour. he and Peter White play every last bit note perfect with little additional help.

Can I bragg? Saw Al in Birmingham in the UK in the 80s poor PR and marketing lead to a small audience but Al put on a wonderful performance .....asking many people in the audience to name a song of his and he played it

I was able to get around to the stage door after and spent a wonderful hour talking candidly to him about his life, his songs and life in general........I have an autographed copy of Chronicles to boot and my impression? What a great man....very human and very approachable
