BARDOT: Rocking in rhythm LP 1977 UK. Polished Rock. Graham Bonnet connection. Check audio samples

Description

12″ VINYL LP on UK RCA PL 25121

If you have ever heard and enjoyed the solo Graham Bonnet album he made back in 1977 with Pip Williams, you will love this as it is from the same era and style. BARDOT were a great trio of singer/songwriters who should have become Britain’s answer to Crosby, Stills & Nash but what chance did they stand with the onslaught of punk rock. This was polished Soft Rock. Great songs and harmonies. I have ripped this from good condition vinyl and I hope you will enjoy it as much as I have over the years.

The opening track from the one and only album this trio recorded. I have no idea what the song is all about really but it sounds great. I still listen to the album “Rocking In Rhythm” often even after all these years.
