"On The Road" from "Rock Follies", Thames 1976

"Rock Follies" was a TV musical drama which followed the exploits of a three-piece girl band, The Little Ladies. The band comprised streetwise Cockney, Dee (played by Julie Covington), well-brought-up deb, Q (Rula Lenska), and bored middle-class housewife, Anna (Charlotte Cornwall).

Howard Shuman wrote the screenplay and lyrics, and Andy Mackay, of Roxy Music fame, wrote the music.

In the US, the series was pulled after the first episode due to complaints about its raunchiness. Back in the UK, a second series, again of 6 episodes, followed in 1977.

Since neither Lenska nor Cornwall appeared to have anything better than mediocre vocal talents, Covington took the lead on most songs, as here.
