Album Notes

"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. Best known for his long time partnership with soul singing legend, Al Green. It seems that another Al has come out of Willie's stables.

We present to you, Al Campos. A native of Los Angeles, CA, a current resident of Copenhagen Denmark.

Al Campos is a singer & trombone player, songwriter and producer. He was born into a gospel singing family. His mother, a recording artist herself in the 1950's & 60's with "The Messengers," introduced him to music at the very early age of 1 year old. He began to play music at age 8. Throughout his childhood, Al has had the incredible good fortune to have learned "everything" he knows about great song writing and singing by his uncle, 9 time Grammy award winning gospel artist, Andraé Crouch.

Al has put together this new CD with the help of his good friends, all hand picked to step up and play some serious soul music.
