Al Simmons - Celery Stalks At Midnight

Review by Jan M. de Geus

Al Simmons' album Celery Stalks At Midnight is a whimsical and entertaining collection of songs that will delight listeners of all ages. The album is a delightful mix of jazz, swing, and big band music, all infused with Simmons' signature sense of humor and playfulness.

The album's title track, "Celery Stalks At Midnight," is a standout, with its catchy melody and clever lyrics about a vegetable that comes to life after dark. Other highlights include "The Boogie Woogie Bakery Man," a rollicking tune about a baker who can't stop dancing, and "I Want to Be a Lifeguard," a hilarious ode to the joys of lifeguarding.

Simmons' vocals are smooth and charming throughout the album, and the musicians backing him up are top-notch. The arrangements are lively and fun, with plenty of swing and brass to keep things interesting.
