BA Robertson - R&BA (Expanded Edition)

A hugely successful, award-winning songwriter, singer and musician, BA ROBERTSON enjoyed his most commercially successful period while signed to Asylum Records in the late 70s and early 80s. �During that period, BA was rarely out of the charts with hit singles including �Bang Bang�, �Knocked It Off�, �Kool In The Kaftan�, �To Be Or Not To Be� and, with Maggie Bell, �Hold Me�. �Amazingly, BA�s Asylum recordings have never officially been reissued on CD � until now! �Compiled by the artist himself with remastered sound, new sleeve-notes by Eddie Harrison and each reissue boasting numerous bonus tracks, BA�s Asylum albums have finally been treated to the reissue programme they deserve. �R&BA was the third and final BA album for Asylum. First issued in 1982, it spawned a hit collaboration with fellow Scot Maggie Bell, �Hold Me�, alongside two further singles, �Dot Dot Dot� and �Ready Or Not�. �Among the wealth of bonus tracks are three non-album B-sides, a demo for BA�s theme tune for TV show Saturday Superstore, a demo for the album highlight �Legislate For Love�, a rare German version of BA�s first hit �Bang Bang� and two tracks from a rare live performance by BA at Edinburgh Festival in 2004.
