Richard Barnes
UK male vocalist. Had two chart hits in 1970 - Take to the Mountains (pos 35,8 wks.) & Go North (pos 38, 3 wks). Described on his self titled debut LP as "a sensitive sounding English lad". The LP includes 10 songs by the likes of Elton John, Paul Simon, Rod McKuen, Nilsson, Buffy Sainte-Marie and Emitt Rhodes.
Side one:
Take to the mountains
Your song
Live till you die
Take my hand for a while
Maybe
Side 2:
It's getting better
Homeward bound
London
I think I'm getting over you
Go north
A second album was released in 1970 together with Tony Hazzard called Hazzard & Barnes - Journey's End. It contained the following titles:
Side one:
Journey's end
Warning lights
South west wind
Sweet green fields of England
Fox on the run
Side 2:
Givin out love
Home again with you
Rock & roll lady
Take to the mountain (a country version - beautiful)
Still in love with you
Unfortunately he did not become the most famous Barnes, as hoped on the liner notes of his first LP. He was in a band that had a couple of UK chart singles in the mid sixties called The Quiet Five.
