Alf 'Freddie' Lennon...

Anyone?

He sang and played the banjo but was not known for being very dependable...

"That's My Life" was Alf "Freddie" Lennon's attempt to explain his lifelong absence to his rock star son. I'm not sure it succeeded in doing so. But the voice is uncannily familiar. Alf died in 1976 having received a phone call from his estranged son shortly before he passed.
