Description: Biff Rose, a New Orleans-born songwriter and performer, mixed sharp satire with tender folk in his offbeat career. This half-live album, recorded at The Bitter End in New York City, offers a glimpse into the city’s early '70s countercultural performance scene. Known for writing “Fill Your Heart,” later covered by David Bowie, Rose’s work blends comedy, social critique, and vulnerable introspection. “Half Live” captures both his unpredictability and poignant lyricism, making it a rare and thoughtful addition to any collection focused on outsider folk or Greenwich Village’s artistic legacy.
