Do the lenses for a Canon A1 fit the Canon Rebel body?

I have manual lenses and an A1 body. The A1 is having problems with film advancement. Someone has a Rebel SLR body for sale. Will my lenses fit both cameras? You can’t fit them straight on, but there is an FD to EF adapter. You may need to get one for each lens – one of the reviews suggests that once it’s on, it’s tricky to get off the lens. The cost is $39.51. This link is on Amazon but the seller is Adorama so if you search on their web site it must be there somewhere. Adorama is a good place to buy from. http://www.amazon.com/Adorama-Canon-Lens-Body-Adapter/dp/B00009R7ZR UPDATE: AWriterWandering is correct, but this adapter does have the corrective lens. Some reviewers do say it degrades the image. It also requires a one stop increase in exposure. This is the direct link to the item at Adorama. I think it’s the same item anyway, but the price here is $49.95.
