		Bowlly claimed at the time of his death that he was born in 1899, making him forty-two, but his death certificate gives his age as forty-three, and several contemporaries claimed that the perpetually boyish-faced singer was born as early as 1890.

		Al Bowlly's untimely death may have been the last straw for Jimmy Mesene who would have seen his living disappear and had lost a friend as well as a partner.

		Bowlly died in the early hours of 17th April 1941 and a tribute did not appear in the "Melody Maker" until the 25th which announced that his funeral would be on Saturday 26th at Westminster City Council Cemetery, Uxbridge Road, Hanwell.

		Al Bowlly : Just a Bowl of Cherries
		Choosing an Al Bowlly compilation to rate above all the others is a difficult proposition, since the fine British big band singer recorded thousands of titles and his CD compilations tend to be either exhaustively complete series or scattershot single discs.
		The Pearl Flapper compilation Just a Bowl of Cherries is slightly scattershot, but it was excellently compiled and it includes many examples of Bowlly at his best.

		In my view, this is a real good basic primer for anybody wanting to get a feel for the era of Al Bowlly and his style of music.
		Al sings "Roll Along Prairie Moon", "My Woman", "Fancy Our Meeting", and the beautiful "Isn't It Heavenly?" I highly recommend this CD.
		The 2cd set is full of great Carroll Gibbons, Al Bowlly, Hutch, Fred and Ginger, Greta Keller (who, at first, I thought was Marlene Dietrich).

		I first learnt of the fantastic voice of Al Bowly when watching the TV-series 'Pennies from heaven' - it open the door to a new and fascinating world, at the time when music was melodious and with that fantastic swing to it so seldom found these days.
		These recordings are around seventy years old and yet the talent of Al Bowlly still shines through.
		Every number rings with the sincerity of a man who in his short life, curtailed prematurely by the Blitz of 1941, performed with the apparent ease that can only come from a true professional.

		This CD features the recordings Bowlly made when he returned to England after his tenure with the Ray Noble Band in the U.S. PROUD OF YOU consists entirely of tracks recorded in the 1934-38 heyday of Al Bowlly's tragically abbreviated career.
		This compilation is an excellent overview of Bowlly's tenure with the Roy Fox Orchestra, which Lew Stone took over when Fox returned to America in the mid-1930s.
		This 20-track collection shows off all of Bowlly's skills, but focuses on his much-vaunted skills as a ballad singer.
