There are a few vids of Al on YouTube that you might want to check out if you haven't done so already.

Here's one:

As most of my performances are private I have a terrible habit of forgetting to advertise those that are not. I will try harder to remember to do this in future starting with those that I have just posted today!

I hope to see some familiar faces and yes I will be playing some old as well as the new material.

For all Al's overseas fans who would like to have a copy of Terra Nova but who don't want to wait for a copy to arrive by post, now is your chance.

It is now possible to purchase Al's CDs via an online payment system (look for the new 'Store' link in the sidebar menu).

There are a few cosmetic issues still to be ironed out but this should not affect the store's functionality.

If you have any difficulties using the cart system or with the PayPal payment system please let us know; post a comment in the Website section of the forum so we can endeavour to improve the shopping experience.

NB. It is possible to use your credit or debit card without having a PayPal account. Look for the 'continue' link on the left hand side of the secure PayPal payment page. Of course, if you already have a PayPal account you can make a payment that way if you wish.

Happy shopping. :D

Well, it's finally available.

Do visit the Albums page and check out the sound bites for a taste of what's in store.

Right now you can only purchase the CD by sending in a cheque but, if things go according to plan, you will be able to make a secure online purchase from this site in a few days.

Enjoy!

Webmaster.

Yes, I've finally finished Terra Nova and what an expedition it's been. I've learnt much along the way and feel now it is time for world domination :-)

Well it is in production at this very moment and should be ready for purchase through this site either the 9th or 10th of May.

I will then be out and about on probably the biggest promotional campaign of my 10 year career hitting the towns of the west country and beyond with live performances of the entire album.

Hope you are all enjoying this fine weather and I for one can't wait to get back out there after over 6 months in the studio - I only hope you all think it was worth it!

I hope this will wet the appetite in anticipation of the final release due out in spring.

On the subject of which - the album is making slow but steady progress and results so far are more then pleasing. I only hope you, the fans, will agree.

Stay tuned for more excerpts and downloads to follow!

As promised, there are now a few tracks available for download from Equilibrium for your delectation. They are only available to registered users of the forum so please be sure to register there if you haven't already done so.

The Albums page has been updated with some new information too so be sure to check that out.

There will be further additions to the site over the coming weeks so stay tuned...

Well summer's gone and the nights are drawing in so it's time for me to get my head down and crack on with the Terra Nova album. I will be posting a few tasters of the new material over the next few weeks. Take care and bye for now. Al x

Hello everybody and welcome to the new and much improved Al Marconi web-site.

Well, finally we are up and running and I hope you will like what we have for you here. It is very much a work in progress with much to be added in the form of multi-media and free downloads in the near future.

You will be pleased to know that from now on I will be attending to this area of the site in person and will regularly use this page to inform you all of last minute public performances together with reports on my recording progress and the like.

Other good news is that I am now able to offer my albums postage free and that includes overseas purchases!

There is also an extensive gallery and if you the fans have any relevant images you would like to surrender to the site please feel free to do so. They will be incorporated into a special "fan's pix" section of the gallery.

There is now a specialised wedding section with excerpts from the musical program I use for weddings.

You will also notice the brand new addition of a forum where you will be able to discuss anything musically related with me or to others about me. We are not sure how this will work out yet but it will be interesting to see.

The release of this new site is fair affirmation that after a break from the circuit with numerous different issues I am back and more determined then ever before. I have some very exciting projects planned for the future that I will keep you all informed of - I have to make up for over 5 years since my last release so don't be surprised if several albums are released in tandem!

Well that's all for now and thank you all for your support and patience. Enjoy the site,

Al x
