He's my grandpa! I love the seed song and the matchbox song!
Al Barlow is one of the most gifted songwriters around and it's easy to see why some of his more famous friends (e.g. REK and Todd Snider) claim his influence. Al deals in universal truths but still has an obtuse, interesting way of seeing the world. There's something in Al Barlow's songs for everyone: from the young to the old, saints to sinners. You'll find yourself laughing out loud at some of his subject material but touched by what he's trying to say...and singing his lyrics later at the top of your lungs.
We saw Al at a gathering at Oma's Secret Garden. He's incredible in person so we just had to have this CD. His lyrics are very clever and he just oozes joy. You need this CD.
if you just get the cd you are missing out his expression is the best part and if you go to oma gruenes secrete garden you will love it and will never want to leave
Al Barlow is awesome! You have got to hear him! If you can, go see him! You'll never regret it! I promise!
makes me want to smoke the herb
