ABOUT BRIDGET
Bridget St John is a singer with a distinctively deep and somewhat melancholy voice. She learnt piano and viola as a child in London, and guitar while a student at Sheffield University, from which she graduated in 1968. Her "To be without a hitch" / "Autumn lullaby" (1969) was one of the first two singles released by Dandelion Records, John Peel's label; Ask Me No Questions -- including the earlier single, and sparingly produced by Peel -- was the label's first LP.
The follow-up, the more highly regarded Songs for the Gentle Man, was produced by Ron Geesin. Commercial success did not follow critical acclaim, and St John lay low for some time, reemerging in the nineties and (as of 2004) continuing to perform.
Ron Geesin is mastering a double-CD of Bridget's early radio performancesand some live gig stuff, but needs decent tapes particularly of the firstPeel session [Night Ride: 1968/08/21] and the Bob Harris session[1972/04/10]. They can be of any format. Please contact Ron Geesin...
