AL MORGAN: Daddy's Little Girl

Often billed as "The Fabulous Flying Hands of Al Morgan" due to his high energy piano playing style, Al Morgan could handle a vocal equally well. Al continued to find an audience throughout his lengthy career, as this performance of Daddy's Little Girl, at age 76, proves. Al achieved immediate fame with his massive hit Jealous Heart in 1949. He went on to record an impressive number of singles and albums for various labels, and had his own television show. Although usually associated with The Mills Brothers, Al's audiences expected to hear this wedding favorite at his concerts. Al recorded Daddy's Little Girl for RCA's label X, where Gisele MacKenzie had her biggest seller, Hard to Get.

I always loved Al Morgan. Growing up- i don't know how many nickels i put into a 'juke box' to hear "Jealous Heart". Yeah- it was a nickel back then.
