I've seen Al Jarreau twice. One in concert with just his band (at which I was front row center - way cool as you can imagine) and the other time he followed The Rippingtons (that was my 3rd Rippingtons concert ).
At the end of the first show, Al was over-time and he said he had one more tune and asked for requests. People were shouting tunes all over the Theater, except for my favorite. I just looked up at him and said "Spain...please". He immediately turned to the band and they kicked it off. It made my night! He is such a cool guy. We were in a music college town and Al said "to all the music students in the audience... this is not MTV. This is real music and these are real musicians up here." And he was sooooo right.
Again, on your performance....let me say... BOFFO!
