I think I was at that gig when I was a young teenager, it's from a TV-show called Opp O Poppa. Cool stuff.

@fgldnglbs Elkie is Blues and Rock . Driscoll was folk, Dusty was pop. Elkie is in the" Guinness Book of Records" as the most charted female, in the album charts in the last 30yrs.Elkie has never been in anyone's shadow.

@fgldnglbs Her hits , Pearls a Singer, Sunshine after the Rain, Don't cry Out Loud, No More the Fool, etc, etc, The last one been a new song. Where NOT in the consciousness of of most people.Elkie was primarily a Rock/Blues singer .Rondstadt was pop.

I just saw a bunch of posts for Elkie Brooks solo videos and I see some similarity and a difference in what she and Robert Palmer did. From her, I see mostly remakes of songs that were already in most peoples' consciousness; Palmer dug up songs that most listeners might have missed as well as wrote a few of his own. If this is what Brooks did, it might have worked for Linda Rondstadt, but not again.

Robert Palmer with hair shorn, so this must be the later days of the band.
I know I heard the name Elkie Brooks somewhere and maybe heard a track or two. Interesting that these two crossed paths once. She might be regarded as some as an unjustly underated and overlooked talent, but I wonder if coming out not long after Julie Driscoll and maybe even Dusty Springfield put her in their shadows.

Elkie Brooks is one powerful vocalist. And i rarely saw this side of Robert Palmer. Way cooler than the dolls.

@richyrollins This band was GREAT . Elkie Brooks was the best thing to come out of this band.

man this band sucked but thank god robert palmer made something of himself!
I had that album when I was 20 orso. God knows where it is now, but boy it swept me of my feet back than. Elkie Brooks is one of the greatest singers of all times to me.
