Live!
(2) The RB Experience, 6 April 2019, The Southern Maltings, Ware (UK)
The RB Experience is Russ Ballard’s way to say ‘Thanks’ to all the fans – not just the fans of Russ Ballard the solo artist (°1945), but also the fans of the artists he worked, has worked or still works with (Chris Andrews, The Roulettes, Argent), covered his songs (Ray Bradbury of ‘Hello’), are in his current band (Stevie Smith, Michael Steed, Roland Jones, Bob Henrit) or bear some relation to his career which took off for good when he joined The Roulettes in March 1963… before teaming up with Unit 4+2, forming Argent and writing for others (Kiss, America, Abba, Colin Bluntstone, etc.).
(1) The RB Experience, The Southern Maltings, Ware (UK), 7 april 2018
In “The RB Experience”, the initials “RB” stand for the man who threw the party in honour of his fans: Russ Ballard. Aged sixteen, Russ Ballard backed Britain’s superstar Adam Faith as a member of The Roulettes, went on to play with Unit 4+2 and co-founded Argent before developing a successful solo career. The reason for the party? Well, the 55th anniversary of The Roulettes. As it happens, all four members of the definite line-up from 1963 are still with us and rocking: Russ, John ‘Mod’ Rogan (bass), Peter Thorp (lead guitar) and Bob Henrit on drums.
