Bridget St. John's final album fell somewhere between vintage British folk-rock and the kind of singer/songwriter approach used by Phoebe Snow or early Joni Mitchell. A low-key, agreeable affair of sophisticated romantic ruminations, although not compelling.
English singer/songwriter Bridget St. John was one of the leading lights of the British folk scene of the late '60s and early '70s, a gifted vocalist and guitarist who also wrote intelligent, impressionistic songs. After an especially active early run that produced classic albums like her psych-tinged 1971 set Songs for the Gentle Man, St. John moved to New York and all but vanished from public performance for over 20 years, re-emerging in the mid-'90s with sporadic concert appearances.
