A few years ago Canadian rock/blues artist Ked Dieter and American drag racing enthusiast Sam Eidy created an excellent tribute song to raise funds for the Allard Chrysler Action Group’s (ACAG) restoration of Europe’s first dragster – Sydney Allard’s 1961 Allard Chrysler owned by the National Motor Museum, Beaulieu. Called Ally Blue, it is straight from the rock and blues music box with a vocal salute to the Beach Boys from Mack Sanders.

This original track features lyrics by Ked and Sam with all music, main vocals and wild guitar from Ked and backing vocals from Mack. There is even the sound of the Allard Chrysler plus sound bites from Sydney Allard and Tommy Ivo recorded in 1964 while they were in the UK during the final year that the dragster was run in anger. It can be downloaded from the previous link with funds generated going towards Allard Chrysler dragster restoration and maintenance costs. It is also available in Audio CD format.
