Listen Later

This song is dedicated to a most memorable human being that I had the pleasure and privilege to work with and call a Friend in a 'previous life'. "Coach", aka the late, great Al McGuire, would often greet me by asking if everything was "All Seashells and Balloons"? Al spoke his own unique language. It endeared him to his many Players, and millions of Listeners and Viewers who enjoyed his colorful broadcasts of College Basketball Games and what has become The Final Four NCAA Basketball Championships each March (March Madness). Al was an incredible motivational speaker and blessed with a most entertaining and engaging personality. He had a way of making anyone around him feel special. He always gave back so much more than he ever received. Bless you, Coach. Living here at The Beach on so many bright sunny, warm days, I've learned what you meant all these years later when you asked that question, and "Yes, most days here certainly are All Seashells and Balloons"! https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Al_McGuire https://www.phrases.org.uk/bulletin_board/17/messages/1266.html
