First post!: Old Al or New Al?

Post by MadMarc »

Which era of Al music do you enjoy most? Classic Al (80's) or Ne Al (90's-to the future Al). I enjoy both. How about you?

All of it. But it will probably be another 27 weeks before I move PH into the regular rotation.

I like it all too. I can spend 7-8 hours straight listening to Al's studio albums. I don't think he's had a "low" in the past 20 years. Every album has some really great songs and they're all microcosmic for their eras.



As for Al's look, I like the "new" Al.

Though, I got interested because of RWS, I do love all of his stuff, of course. :)

I like the new look best too, but Al's always been a cutie... :inlove:

ALL of it. And the polkas never go out of style, even if the songs are moldy and decaying in old radio station trash bins.

There's just something about a revved up oom pah beat that will breath life into any old song... :choon:

I like the newer stuff better even though I'm a fan from WAY back. I think Al is one of those artists that truely gets better with age.
You have quickly thought up such matchless phrase?

I think I like his older stuff. I don't know why, maybe it's just the sound of the 80's. I honestly don't know.
