Harmony Row

"Harmony Row" is the third full length, solo studio album from musician, composer and singer Jack Bruce, originally released in July 1971 on the Polydor label. The album takes its title from a tenement street in Glasgow, near where Bruce grew up. The street, since demolished, was famous as the largest unbroken houserow in Europe, stretching for over a mile. The album's cover photo was taken near the Harmony Row tenement. Although since cited by Bruce as his favourite solo album, Harmony Row did not chart upon its release (it did continue to sell over a long period of time consistently). The album would be his last solo effort for over three years, as Bruce would join the power trio West, Bruce and Laing (with whom he would record three albums) in early 1972. A 2003 Polydor remastered CD featured five previously unreleased bonus tracks.
