"I'VE BEEN A BIG FAN OF AL'S FOR 30 YEARS,AND HIS PLACE HAS YET TO BE RECOGNIZED.AS A HARP PLAYER HIS ONLY PEER IS KIM WILSON,WHO IRONICALLY OWNS THE LABLE AL APPEARS ON. THIS IS A BEGINNING TO WHAT COULD PLACE HIM IN HIS RIGHTFUL POSITION AS ONE OF THE PREIMINATE BLUES MUSICIANS OF HIS GENERATION. GENIUS!!"

"I went to high school with Al, and at our 25th reunion he told me that he was one of the top blues harp players in the country. I dabble in blues harp too. I wasn't sure I believed him. Then he showed up on our class's "lost list," and I googled around and found he recorded under a different name than he had in high school. I ordered this CD, and -- no kidding -- he WAS one of the best blues harp players I'd heard. Certainly one of the best living.



I later found him on Classmates dot com, and we exchanged some messages. I highly recommend this CD.
