Allí grabaron artistas como The Rolling Stones, Aretha Franklin, George Michael, Wilson Pickett, Willie Nelson, Lynyrd Skynyrd, Joe Cocker, Levon Helm, Paul Simon, Bob Seger, Rod Stewart, Tamiko Jones, y Cat Stevens.
Como muestra, Alberto trae temas y comentarios de Paul Simon, J.J. Cale, Rod Stewart, Bod Dylan y J.J. Grey & Mofro.

Paul Simon - "Loves me like a rock"
Loves me like a rock
When I was a little boy (When I was just a boy)
And the devil would call my name (When I was just a boy)
I'd say, now who do (Who)
Who do you think you're foolin' (When I was just a boy)
I'm a consecrated boy (When I was just a boy)
I'm a singer in a Sunday choir
Oh, my mama loves me, she loves me
She get down on her knees and hug me
Like she loves me like a rock
She rocks me like the rock of ages and loves me
She love me, love me, love me, love me
When I was grown to be a man (Grown to be a man)
And the devil would call my name (Grown to be a man)
I'd say, now who do (Who)
Who do you think you're foolin' (Grown to be a man)
I'm a consummated man (Grown to be a man)
I can snatch a little purity
My mama loves me, she loves me
She get down on her knees and hug me
Like she loves me like a rock
She rocks me like the rock of ages and loves me
She love me, love me, love me, love me
And if I was President (Was the President)
The minute congress call my name (Was the President)
I'd say now, who do (who)
Who do you think you're foolin' (Who do you think you're foolin')
I've got the Presidential seal (Was the President)
I'm up on the Presidential podium
My mama loves me, she loves me
She get down on her knees and hug me
Like she loves me like a rock
She rock me like the rock of ages and loves me
She love me, love me, love me, love me (Loves me like a rock)
She love me, love me, love me, love me (Loves me like a rock)
She love me, love me, love me, love me (Loves me like a rock)
Oh yeah (Loves me like a rock)
Nanananana (Rock me like the rock of ages)
(Loves me like a rock)
(Loves me like a rock)
(Rock me like the rock of ages)
(Loves me like a rock)
(Loves me like a rock)
Nanananana (Rock me like the rock of ages)
(Loves me like a rock)
(Loves me like a rock)
(Rock me like the rock of ages)
(Loves me like a rock)
(Loves me like a rock)
(Rock me like the rock of ages)
(Loves me like a rock)
(Loves me like a rock)
(Rock me like the rock of ages)
J.J. Cale - "Lies"
Lies
You told me this, you told me that
You try to tell me, tell me where it's at
You said you loved me, I can see through that
Lies, lies, lies
You left me hangin', hangin' from a limb
You said you loved me, then you left with him
Lord, you did it to me, I see it in your eyes
Lies, lies, lies
Tell me baby, why you take my time
You get a thrill off playing with my mind
Lord, you did it to me, I see it in your eyes
Lies, lies, lies
Rod Stewart - "The first cut is the deepest"
The first cut is the deepest
I would have given you all of my heart
But there's someone who's torn it apart
And she's taken just all that I had
But if you want, I'll try to love again, oh baby
Honey, I'll try to love again but I know
The first cut is the deepest
Baby, I know, the first cut is the deepest
'Cause when it comes to being lucky, she was cursed
When it comes to loving me, she's worst
I still want you by my side
Just to help me dry the tears that I cried
And I'm sure gonna give you a try
And if you want, I'll, I'll love you again, baby, oh yeah
Honey, I'll try to love again but I know
The first cut is the deepest
Baby, I know, the first cut is the deepest
'Cause when it comes to being lucky, she's cursed
When it comes to loving me, she's worst
I still want you by my side
Just to help me dry the tears that I've been crying
And I'm sure gonna give you another try
And if you want, I'll try to love again, oh baby
I'll try to love again, I'll try
The first cut is the deepest
Baby, I know, the first cut is the deepest
When it comes to being lucky, she was cursed
When it come to loving me, she's worst
Yeah
Is that your ex, mum?
Yeah, sounds like this

Candi Staton - "I'd rather be an old man's sweetheart (Than a young man's fool)"
I'd rather be an old man's sweetheart (Than a young man's fool)
You may think I'm silly
To love a man twice my age
But I know from experience, girls
Sometime it pays
The man I've got
The fire's almost gone
He can't heat up nobody's house
He got just enough to keep me warm
I'd rather be an old man's sweetheart
Than to be a young man's fool
(I'd rather be with an old man than to break a young man's heart)
To love you once a month
Is all an old man desires
You can love a young man
Seven days a week
And still he's not satisfied
Old man would be so grateful
If you could just sit and talk
But a young man is somewhere busy
Doing the camel walk
I'd rather be an old man's sweetheart
Than to be a young man's fool
(I'd rather be with an old man than to break a young man's heart)
Most girls prefer a young man
'Cause a young man is strong
But I'd rather put up with this old man
Than have a young man doing me wrong
And old man would be so grateful
If you could just let him sit and talk
But a young man is somewhere busy
Doing the camel walk
I'd rather be an old man's sweetheart
Than to be a young man's fool
Yeah, don't wanna be no fool
Ain't gonna be your fool
Well, I'd rather put up with this old man
Again, he buys me presents
He treats me good, ah-hm
J.J. Grey & Mofro - "Somebody else"
Somebody else
Some people say that I don’t play
they say I got a temper when I’m in that way
But I don’t know who that person is that acts like a fool
Thats somebody else Lord I swear it ain’t me
I guess I’m my on worse enemy
Cause I don’t know who I am when I am - that somebody else
I grab up the keys I fly out the gate
The family is fighting I don’t want to be late
Cause I’m going to tell them all about my ass like I said that I would
We’re out in the yard yelling at each other
hate in my eyes sisters and brothers
I don’t know who I am when I am - that somebody else
The neighbors are watching cause its getting real loud
but making my stand yo it makes me feel proud
but I know tomorrow I’ll feel the shame when I cool down
Baring my fangs when I hear my niece
yell to the neighbors “Lord call the police”
Cause I don’t know who I am when I am - that somebody else
I can’t hear the yelling no more
my eyes glaze over as I reach for the door
I grab my pistol time to show these fools what time it is
Now I’m in jail for the rest of my life
I can’t see my kids Lord I can’t see my wife
Cause I don’t know who I am when I am - that somebody else
