The Al Bowlly Music Collection

From his most known hits to his lesser-known ones, these 30-ish minutes are for relaxing. Albert Allick Bowlly (7 January 1898 – 17 April 1941) was a Mozambican-born South African/British vocalist and jazz guitarist who was popular during the 1930s in England. He recorded more than 1,000 songs. On 16 April 1941, Bowlly and Messene had given a performance at the Rex Cinema in Oxford Street, High Wycombe. Both were offered an overnight stay in town, but Bowlly took the last train home to his flat at 32 Duke Street, Duke’s Court, St James, London. He was killed by a Luftwaffe parachute mine that detonated outside his flat at ten past three in the morning. His body appeared unmarked. Although the explosion had not disfigured him, it had blown his bedroom door off its hinges, and the impact against his head was fatal. He was buried with other bombing victims in a mass grave at Hanwell Cemetery, Uxbridge Road, Hanwell, where his name is given as Albert Alex Bowlly. 00:00: Heartaches 3:29: Midnight the Stars and You 7:06: A Couple of Fools in Love 9:57: A Little Love Song 13:03: A Little Rain Must Fall 16:10: Any Broken Hearts to Mend? 19:17: Beware of Love 23:02: Blue Moon 25:50: Butterflies in the Rain Discord:
