Confucius –Brandenburg Concerto (That’s What It Was)


Confucius –Brandenburg Concerto (That’s What It Was)/The Message –RCA 1923 (1970 UK)

Aaah –the joys of a simple ebay BIN! Produced by Tony Atkins (Galahad), Brandenburg Concerto is a joyful upbeat pop ditty and a prime example of UK Bubblegum at its best. Probably from Liverpool with a connection to The Cryin’ Shames (Ritchie Routledge was a member before he departed for Berlin and joined Blackwater Park). Not much else is known...but answers always seem to find their way to this blog...

Confucius were a Liverpool band.The line-up of the band was Chris Findley, John Donaldson, Frank O Conner, and Ozzie Yue before they changed the name of the band to Confucius they were called The Hideaways.
Ritchie Routledge left The Hideaways before the name change and did not play on the record,he went over to Berlin and joined Blackwater Park
