Batdorf and Rodney, part 1

 











Well the hippie hair is absolutely unbelievable...

These guys get my vote for the most underrated composers of the early 70s, second perhaps to the Sand band from long ago here.  They played country rock all acoustic with some steps into commercial pop in the last album, before they broke up, but the quality of the songwriting is really high, as high as someone like James Taylor for ex. who became so successful in that decade.  So I went back to see if there was more in the discography such as unreleased material and found out there was indeed some, but first I'll post their 3 official albums with a flac of the last one Life is You which to me is their masterpiece.  They are discogged here.

Ain't it like home, should've been a number one hit back then in 1975, and why it wasn't, I just don't get it, I really don't.
