September 07, 2021 by David Vousden in Interview, Classic Rock, Blues, Country, Soul, The Bakers Dozen

The latest edition of the Baker’s Dozen finds Al Ross chatting to RGM about his earliest musical memories, the demands, frustrations and opportunities that came to light recording the ‘Blue Crystal’ album during the pandemic and his love of vinyl and classic film. Al Ross & The Planets can be a little tough to categorize with blues, classic rock and country influences delivered with a dash of soul that makes for a thoroughly enjoyable listening experience. You can check out their second album, ‘Blue Crystal’ on September 10th 2021, via Wienerworld on CD and download.
