About the Artist
Robb's first major career break came in 1974 when the Eagles recorded a song he co-wrote with Jack Tempchin called "Already Gone". He returned to California and put together his band "The Silverados". Chris Darrow produced the Silverados album which eventually lead to Robb's signing as an artist with Polydor records and the release of his first album in 1975. After one album, he left Polydor and joined "The Flying Burrito Brothers" for a tour, but never recorded with the group. In 1978 Robb, along with Chris Darrow , and Max Budda from Kaleidoscope, formed "Rank Strangers" which also included vocalist Cindy Edwards and John Selk on bass. Rank Strangers recorded on Pacific Arts records for Michael Nesmith. Their album was released in the U.S. and Europe and received a Grammy nomination in the "vocal duo or group" category. In 1982 Robb left Los Angeles and moved to Nashville to pursue his song writing career. A year later Vern Gosden recorded Robb's song "I Can Tell by the Way You Dance" and it became the first number one hit for the artist and his label. It was also the number two air play country single in 1984. For the next ten years robb concentrated on song writing and publishing. Also during this time he formed a duet with co-writer Denise Draper and they recorded for Warner Borthers Records.

Today Robb is a multi-platinum songwriter, with songs on the highest selling album, 'Eagles Greatest Hits', and the highest selling country album and the Country Music Associations 1994 album of the year, 'Common Thread'. His song writing credits also include several movies and television shows.

Some of the artists who have recorded Robb's songs are The Eagles, Johnny Lee, Gary Morris, The Osborne Brothers, Mickey Gilley, Chris Darrow, Fred Koller , The Rank Strangers, Vern Gosden, Tanya Tucker, Waldon Dahl, and the Virginia Squares.

Customer Reviews:

Live So Cal Country Rock At Its Finest.......2003-08-15

Robb's first official CD is a live gig from 1976 in support of his debut Polydor LP.Working with some of the more gifted Californian musicians (Chris Darrow,John Ware,Bob Warford,Al Perkins and Cindy Edwards) Robb establishes himself as one of Country Rock's more imaginative artists..in fact Robb and band almost function as a precursor to Dwight Yoakam & Babylonian Cowboys. There is much to enjoy...Robb's "Another Country Song" is observationist songwriting at its sharpest and "Hello Mama" suggests Buck Owens sitting in with Chuck Berry. Always a classic Country vocalist and strong songwriter Robb has never got his proper dues. Here's where it starts...buy!!
