Rosebud (band)
Rosebud was an American folk rock group with a tendency towards country rock who released their only album of the same name in 1971.
Rosebud included Judy Henske (vocals), Jerry Yester (guitar, vocals), Craig Doerge (keyboards, vocals), John Seiter (drums, vocals) and David Vaught (bass). Henske and Yester, married at the time, had previously released the psychedelic album Farewell Aldebaran as a duo (1969), the lyrics and music of which came almost entirely from the two of them.
Rosebud, on the other hand, was a band in whose music all members were involved. While Farewell Aldebaran had been quite experimental, the album Rosebud remained more suitable for the masses. Nevertheless, both albums were produced by Yester.
Shortly after the album was released, Henske and Yester separated, which also broke up the group Rosebud. Henske married Craig Doerge and retired from the stage for a long time. Yester continued to work as a producer, including for Tom Waits , and occasionally appeared as a musician. Doerge became a sought-after studio musician.
The piece Salvation was a hit in France under the name Sauvez-moi for Johnny Hallyday (1972).
