ARTIST BACKGROUND

About Gerry Rafferty

Scottish singer-songwriter Gerry Rafferty worked in the Humblebums and then Stealers Wheel before the solo success of City to City. That 1978 album brought together Baker Street, Right Down the Line and further songs such as Home and Dry and Whatever's Written in My Heart. Its pop arrangements expanded the audience for his writing. His solo recordings are distinct from the earlier group catalog and from later concert or reissue presentations.
