   About BIG AL: In Loving Memory

In loving memory of Big Al, a gentle giant, a great friend and all round good guy. Too young, too soon, too precious, too much to do. Rest in peace mate.

30 November 2009

'Jumping Jacks', Sinah Warren Boogaloo weekender, March 2008

'Caldonia'. Too fast for the dancers, but at least one person in the audience was diggin' it. Hell yeah!

'Jumping East of Java'

'Big Ten Inch'. You know what we're talking about. Record.

'Let the Good Times Roll'. And they did.

A fantastic drummer and friend,
I feel honoured to have known you and worked with you musically and I know you'll be deeply missed by so many.
I hope the spirit of the music you loved so much will be kept on so that we can always have that memory of you and smile when we hear it too.
Until we meet again

Thanks for everything, Al - you'll be sorely missed by us all. I remember you far more from our time in the County Line days than with the Fireflys (only worked with you briefly then), but what a time that was! I can never hear Copperhead Road without thinking of you - we really made it our own. Thanks for all the good times, big fella. Thinking of you and your family, and Karl, Shez, John and Dave. With love from the old crew - Carl, Jon and Mike.

Hi Guys AL, Neil, hope the band is going well. The demo sounds great.
I'm playing for the Cheese Doctors (who I think borrowed your trombone player!).
Are you doing the muscle car and rock n roll thing again?

Hi,
Nice surprise, didn't know you were on the Gunton Hall bill!!
But SORRY we def. need our rooms. (It's got something to do with not driving when you're legless!)
BTW good stuff with Bloater.
