He was a member of the Coast Guard Band for more than 20 years, playing mainly the saxophone but at times the clarinet. During his service, Al performed at the inaugurations of Harry S. Truman, Dwight Eisenhower and John F. Kennedy. After retiring from the band, Al continued to perform in his own group. To hear Al on the saxophone, listen to a few of his band’s music tracks below.
