I met Albert a few times back in the Sixties when he played in Chris's Band, great player even back then, and such a humble person, and from what I have seen and heard about him since he has not changed. I went to watch him a few years ago when he played in Spalding, Lincolnshire where I live, great show!! I was going to have a word with him after the show but he was very busy signing autographs, so I did not bother him. I also saw Chris his old Band leader at the same Venue a few years after, and the Promoter of the show who is a friend of mine took me back-stage to meet up with him again, we had a long chat about 'the old days' at 'The Flamingo'., when Chris, Zoot Money, and Georgie Fame were regulars there, what great days!!
