ARTIST INFO:
The Rose Garden was a short-lived male-female folk rock quintet formed in Los Angeles in 1967 consisting of Bruce Bowdin, William Fleming, James Groshong, John Noreen, and lead singer Diana De Rose (b. July 29, 1948). This group is best remembered for the evocative and wistful "Next Plane To London," a ballad about a frustrated singer in Hollywood who hopes to find success in London but has mixed feelings about leaving her boyfriend behind.
The Rose Garden began in 1964 as a Byrds cover band known as The Blokes. They also performed and recorded as the Giant Sunflower for "February Sunshine" which became a minor hit. After West Virginia native De Rose joined the group in 1967, they became known as The Rose Garden and signed with Atco Records.
The Rose Garden made its chart debut in late 1967 with "Next Plane To London" which became a Top 20 hit. This Kenny O'Dell-penned song features spoken passages by Don Elliot, then a program director for KBLA-Burbank, who portrays an airport announcer. The group also had a minor hit in 1968 with "If My World Falls Through."
The Rose Garden released a self-titled album and several other recordings before finally disbanding in late 1968.
BENT FABRIC-BIO
Bent Fabricus Bjerre, 7 December 1924, Copenhagen, Denmark. A multi-talented Danish musician, known mainly for his piano work. Bent Fabric first formed a jazz band in the 40s when he was still in his teens. They made some of the first ever jazz recordings in Denmark. In 1950, having moved into the pop music of the day, he took over the Danish record company Metronome where he appointed himself A&R manager. Bent Fabric also had his own Saturday night television show, Around A Piano. In 1962 he sold a million copies worldwide of the tune ‘Alley Cat’, which he had written under the pseudonym Frank Bjorn. The subsequent album made the US Top 20. He never followed the hit with any success other than the minor hit ‘Chicken Feed’, the following year, and returned to Denmark and his record company. In recent years he has become one of the most successful music publishers in Europe.
