Hi Terence, the 4 albums I recorded were "Say it with flowers" from 1960, "Dorothy sings squires", "The Seasons of", both from the late 60's/early 70's and "Rain, Rain, Go Away" from 1977. They are all geat albums, and funnily enough Lena and Harry, the "Poppy" one you mentioned is on the "Say It With Flowers" one.
8)
I also love the concerts, I think there were about 3 or 4 live albums made.

Unfortunately we didn't ever get to see Dorothy Squires in concert Terence, but from what we have heard about her London Palladium concert in 1977 that she herself funded it was a night to remember. :lol: :lol: :lol:
She had an army of loyal and devoted fans...... very few could capture or warm to an audience like she could. :lol:

I would have loved to have seen Dorothy Squires perform in concert. But with the "live" concerts on cd you can almost visualize it, if you know what I mean.

John, Al's "Once Upon A Time" is really special. It was requested by so many that he sang it on his tour the following year.

We are listening to Jerry Vale singing Stardust on Eric's show. Brilliant.!!!

Yes, Lena and Harry, I remember Al singing it, I think he has sung it each of the three times I have seen him. My favourite version! :D

Matt singing Hello Dolly, it's on track repeat on my i-pod, I just love the feel, the ambience and the arrangement of this version. :)
