Robin Sarstedt, Sitting Here In Limbo

A 45 rpm single for Robin Sarstedt with this lovely tune in 1976. The youngest of three brothers, all who had solo success (Peter Sarstedt, and Richard Sarstedt as his alias Eden Kane). Robin made it to #3 with his previous hit single in the UK top ten charts "My resitance is low," a Hoagy Carmichael song. The band Arrows introduce Robin, hosting in their usual loose and loony manner.
Robin liked to do songs with lyrics about having "low resistance," causing confusion some 30 years later with some archivists, myself included!

Uh-oh. Too late for a clap on the shoulder. But it ain't that bad. Might like to listen to that on a beautiful day at the lake in summer. :)

hey Clive - do you read these? This took me to a distant place. Helped me recall back streets of london - camden town/chalk farm/hampstead? so long ago i forget. I remember an old pub on the way to some zoo in the countryside, an introduction to shove ha'penny, and conversations with Henry, or was it Charles? That was fun. good to know you're still misbehaving... from LeeB in Oz
