Rob Bartlett - Save Your Love, Breakaway


 

Well, the CCPS is going to delve into the ridiculous number of local 7-inch singles we've been accumulating, thanks in part to Rob Bartlett sharing his collection of 45s with us. So, let's start with a pair of singles by the man himself!

Knowing that Bartlett was a guitarist with rockers Bootleg, these singles took us quite by surprise. Probably not surprisingly, considering his studio expertise, these is a set of really nicely-produced pop/rock songs - this sounds like mid-80s radio, in a good way. We also have to note the excellent cover art on these singles - especially the credits on Save Your Love.

Oh, and to spice things up a bit, here's a clipping from 1982's Herald:
