No one would ever charge Al Martino with being a jazz singer. Nevertheless, he could interpret a lyric and his repertoire included many great standards.

It's a respectful memorial to Martino and somewhere to pay tribute to his family's fortitude at this difficult time.

My beautiful Mum loved him singing "Spanish Eyes".
R.I.P. Al Martino.
I loved Al Martino, he depicted an era of unattainable glamour that could only come from America. Also to those of us who couldn't get home quick enough to get the words down of the latest songs on Radio Luxembourg. Heady exciting stuff to teenagers who loved their music & dance halls
