Rebel Rousers
Al Simon, lead singer and rhythm guitarist, was born and raised in
Columbia, South Carolina. Son of local T.V. legend, "Smilin" Sam Simon, who
hosted the popular local dance show, "Cotton Pickin' Hootenanny", Al had
the opportunity to meet many of the famous rockers of the mid-fifties.
Recalling those years back, Al says "those guys were real nice and always
eager to show me a lick or two....except for Gene Vincent. he was kinda
creepy and was always hittin' on my ma"!
