[@mitchell9103]

Oh my lord, Al needs to release this somehow. I want a copy of this! It’s my favorite song of all time now

[@MissLoofah]

Fuck Yes...this is so epic!!!

[@ChrisBennettGameDesign]

How are there still unreleased songs coming out from Al’s “favorite” period?? 😂❤

[@TheRobSquaredShow]

I don't follow.

[@ChrisBennettGameDesign]

@@TheRobSquaredShow just meant that I've been listening to his music for 35+ years and I've never heard of this cool song.

[@abrahamhernadez8232]

Sounds like music of the future

That picture is most definitely not the Hollywood Palladium it's The Pan Pacific Auditorium which burned to the ground on May 24, 1989.

[@senateguard33]

I feel like the image is from a movie, maybe Xanadu? The location is probably used as The Palladium in the film.
