Al Stewart At 75
In April this year, legendary guitarist Ritchie Blackmore celebrated his 75th birthday. This month, singer-songwriter Al Stewart reached the same landmark. If you haven’t heard of Al, why not?
He was born in Scotland on September 5, 1945, the posthumous son of a Royal Air Force volunteer. Named after his father, his widowed mother lived for a while with Al’s paternal grandfather before relocating to England.
