Al is a gift to music lovers everywhere. Please , do your ears a favor and listen to "On The Border". The bass line and Spanish guitar are priceless.

I still remember when this song came out. I was 16 and still trying to find out where I fit in. It helped me through it all. I never let anything interrupt me while it's playing.

You gentlemen are soooo cute with good hearts. I’m glad you gave this wonderful song a chance. So many gems from the 70’s are incredible. Music has the power to bring us together.

Its important to know who Peter Lorre is to appreciate the lyrics.

What aspect of him do you mean? I remember him from the movie M, where he played a desperate, dangerous but also helpless person. According to wiki not his only disturbing character. It makes sense though.

Off by one year, YOTC was released in 76, I auditioned to play bass for Al shortly before it came out.
@joydunn2109 3 жыл бұрын
It did not come out until February, 1977 the reason I know this is because it played all the time and it was very popular when my friend from school and her Dad were both killed together in a car accident on February 9, 1977, I was 15 years old. Brings back some Bad memories for me, but I still Like this song.

Sorry about your friend and her dad but I am certain it was released in 1976, I auditioned to play bass for Al Stewart for the upcoming tour for YOTC and the album was released several weeks later, summer of 76 I was 21 years old

@@fatlizzard9927 You're probably right about the release date so sorry, what I was talking about is when it started getting played on the Radio, (Billboards charts etc.) I do Remember hearing "Dancing Queen" by ABBA, as well as Boston "Long Time" Kansas "Carry on" but "Year of the Cat" is the one me and my Brother every time we hear it think of Sonja and her Dad, probably because they played it soooo much on the Radio. Thank you for your kind comment. Hard to believe that was 44 years ago this past February, 9th.
