GUEST,Anne Neilson | Origins: Buddy Can you Spare a Dime - who was Al? (64* d) | RE: Origins: Who was Al in Buddy Can you Spare a Dime | 12 Jul 14 |
My favourite version of the song is from Fred Hellerman (of the Weavers) accompanied only by his own guitar. It was all of the following by turns -- emotional, intense, powerful and desperate -- and I always took it that Al was a synonym for The Common Man. |
