Throughout his life, Albert really loved music. His absolute favorite artist was Frank Sinatra. A passenger riding in his car would invariably be delighted by, or subjected to, a steady stream of Sinatra. Given the proximity of Manchester to Liverpool, Albert often insisted that he attended live performances of the Beatles. This claim could never be independently verified, but the Beatles were often the playlist for family car trips. Albert enjoyed a wide variety of musical genres which were reflected in the reel-to-reel mix tapes he painstakingly made and played at the many dinner parties and family gatherings that he and Marcelle would host throughout their lives. An attendee would invariably hear music by Antonio Carlos Jobim, Santana, Ella Fitzgerald & Louis Armstrong, Chuck Mangione, Shirley Bassey, and many other jazz and popular artists of the 1950s, 60s, and 70s.
