   About Al Campos

Available at:        
CD Baby Amazon.com Al Campos - Old School Lovin'

positiveSOUL Productions Announces the Release of “Old School Lovin,' the Debut Album from Al Campos.

Old School Lovin' was recorded in Copenhagen Denmark.
During the final listening of the recorded tracks, it was clear to Al Campos that the album could only be mixed in USA in order to achieve the authentic sound, energy and vibe he was going for. The only question was, who could that be? Who could mix this album and give it that soulful and authentic sound in the mix?

Turn to Memphis, Tennessee. It is here at Willie Mitchell's Royal Recording Studios where Al Campos would find his authentic sound and mixes. Willie Mitchell and his son Boo Mitchell would honor Al Campos by mixing all 11 songs on the album. Willie Mitchell is best known as the producer and songwriter for the great American legend in soul music, Al Green.

Quote:
“Al, you may not know what you got, but I do. What you have here is a SMASH HIT record.”
“The torch has been passed to you. I love your music. You've got something for everyone.”

These are the words of Mr. Willie Mitchell, legendary producer and songwriter at Royal Recording Studios in Memphis, Tennessee.


positiveSOUL Productions present Al Campos

Al Campos is a singer, trombone player, songwriter, producer, teacher and Gospel instructor/vocalist/director. Al was born and raised in Highland Park, Los Angeles, CA. After meeting and marrying his Danish wife in 1988, the couple relocated to Copenhagen in 1990. Now, Al is living and working in both USA and Europe.
He was born into the Royal Family of Gospel Singers and Praise Warriors. His mother, Adela was a recording artist herself in the 1950's & 60's with “The Messengers.”
It was his mother who first introduced him to music. He began to play music at age 8.

Although Al Campos is a “new” solo artist to the world, he is a veteran musician, trombone player and vocalist with over 30 years of experience.
Rooted deeply in soul, r&b, gospel and jazz, Al Campos has written all the lyrics and music on Old School Lovin'.
He has also co-written some of the tracks on Old School Lovin' with his European band members.

Hello Al,
Thank you!
Have an inspiring week!
XX~

Aim for your star,
no matter how far,
you must reach high above
and touch your life with love,
you must never look back,
but charge on! Attack!

See your goal your star of desire,
see it red hot, feel it burning,
you must be obsessed with it
to make it your true yearning,
be ready my friends for when you truly believe it,
you will certainly achieve it
and by all of God’s universal laws
you will always receive it!


Have an inspiring week!
Much Love Always Anita
