Description: Follow-up to The Roches’ 1979 debut, produced and engineered by Roy Halee (noted for Simon & Garfunkel). Includes eight Roche originals plus Cole Porter’s “It’s Bad for Me” and the traditional “Factory Girl.” Basic tracks were cut at Record Plant (NYC), with overdubs at Redwing (Tarzana) and finishing at United Western (Los Angeles); mastering by Greg Calbi. Personnel includes Jay Dee Daugherty (drums) and Fred Smith (bass). Essential for documenting the trio’s Greenwich Village rise and their major-label moment with top-tier studios and production.
