Red and Blue (album)

Background

Originally a model, Farrow found himself signed to Rocshire Records for a full studio album where he worked with producer Andy Lunn and co-wrote various tracks, mainly with Frankfurt/Germany-based keyboardist, composer and producer Lothar Krell.

Recorded at Hotline Studios from March–December 1982, the album was released in 1983 within America only where it failed to gain much commercial success although the lead single "Should I Love You" peaked at #82 on the Billboard Hot 100 and #91 on the Billboard R&B Chart.

A second single "Don't Ask Why" was released on 7" vinyl, whilst "Wildlife Romance" was released which was a promotional 12" vinyl only, unavailable to buy.

The album's original released was on vinyl and cassette only and today the album remains out-of-print, having never been issued on CD or even available to purchase and download online.

The label the album was released under suffered legal problems and all its assets, including master tapes were seized in January 1984. Rocshire Records started with distribution by MCA Records and despite signing a diverse range of artists, the label was shut down by the U.S. Federal Marshalls as Rocshire was financed entirely by millions of dollars that owner Rocky Davis' wife Shirley Davis had embezzled from Hughes Aircraft, while she was working as an accountant there. Master Tapes were confiscated by the Feds, artists left without a home whilst the owners served jail time.

After the album's release, Farrow reportedly opened a nightclub "The Bitter End" in 1985 within Hollywood, and eventually re-surfaced with another single "Imagination" in 1991 under the label Graphite Records, although it failed to gain any success. He reportedly died in May 1993 in West Hollywood, California of a brain disease attributed to AIDS.
