Al's Pals is a new CD of original music by Alan Craig, Charlie Morris, and Devin Rice.  They have played off and on together in the Tampa Bay area since 1980 and have been involved in several bands over the years including Lotus, Full House, and the St. Pete Mountain Boys.  After nearly 20 years in the making, Al's Pals has finally been released.  While this project consists of songs written some years ago, they were all recently mixed and mastered at Panda Productions in Clearwater, Florida by George Harris.  Ross Rice, Dave Bawel, and Shane Rice also contributed tunes to the CD.  Other musicians include Jim Beckwith, Lori Cherry, Dean Germain, Jeff Martin, Dave Whiteside, and Alan Whitman.

Stay tuned as additional pictures, alternate versions of tunes, outtakes, videos, etc. will be posted here.  Also be on the lookout for the new boxed set of CD's from all of the bands that Chuck, Al, and Dev have collaborated on, including nearly 50 songs written and recorded over the last 25 years.  A couple of tracks from Al's Pals have been posted at www.myspace.com/alanrcraig.  While you're at it, check out some selections from the St. Pete Mountain Boys CD at www.myspace.com/stpetemountainboys.  And finally, you can check out some tunes from Lotus at www.myspace.com/lotustunes.

Update - February 21, 2008 - We are still trying to do all we can for the family of Tom Pleasants, our close friend of many years who lost his battle with cancer last year.  Please write to the email address at the bottom of this page for details on what you can do to help.  To show our appreciation we will send a copy of the new CD to anyone who helps out.  We really need your support!
