Hey John - I know this is a BIG shot in the dark - but I came across your vinyl recently - and am wondering if we're related....my mom's maiden name was Batdorf! lol But we're from Central Pa - so I thought it'd be a long shot......just so weird too see such an unusual name as our family name--in a place that sells records! Good for you two - you got three albums out! Nice stuff - you should be proud! Hope all's well - take care! Gina in Pa.
I had forgotten your music. In the early and mid-'70's I turned many of my college on to your music. This past weekend I connected with a friend I had not heard from since '78. B&R was one of the 1st things he brought up. He said he still has your music on his playlist. that brought me here today. Thanks.
John - I'm an old friend of Randy & Vicki Sweeney - and Steve Bazzano's. I saw the videos of your show last night at The Farm! I could have sworn I saw a tour schedule with you stopping here in Portland - OR. Any chance that will happen? I've been so envious and happy for my buds from CT!
Hi John - I bought your first album but somehow lost track of you. That first album did influence both my playing and song writing. For that I am thankful. Great to hear what you're doing today.
Dear John - hope this finds you well. Love your music and projects you've worked on. I was trying to find lyrics to "Life Is You." If possible could you send me to me? Much appreciated. My cousin Paul and I grew up on much of Batdorf and Rodney music. Thanks again. May God Bless you in all you put your hands to. And wherever your feet may tread. Kindly - Ralph
Loved the show last night in University Place!
Hi John..it's Cally Cantrell I live in LAS VEGAS BUT STILL GOT MY NASHVILLE FRIENDS. HIT ME UP
Hey John Finally found a CD copy of Silver. Saw you several times during the 70s in Santa Monica and Hermosa Beach. While listening to the Silver CD it struck me what is missing from today's music....harmony. You guys sounded great.
Mr. Batdorf - I will be attending your upcoming concert at The Oasis in San Diego. This will be my first time having the pleasure of seeing you live. I've been listening to your music for a while.I know you'll be making set lists and I have a few requests. Ain't No Way Ain't Dead Yet What d'ya got Don't seem right to me I rather you played everything you'd ever written but there won't be time for that. Thanks and I look forward to the show.
Love your music! Been listening since 1972-1973 when I picked up "Off the Shelf".
Hey John - Venice Beach around 1970. A & W would be an intimate teas house for entertainment. Yeah I was there. We're both the same age. I was absorbing your songs and style. Still playing them on my 6 string....even the Macabe's days. What a great time those days were.Phil

John - Great concert at Flamig Farm in CT. You were awesome!
John I lost your email when I lost my incredimail so if you would send me your email would be great
John Batdorf's uniquely passionate vocals and guitar playing landed him his first major record deal back in the 70's with Atlantic Records - and he's continued to develop and grow as an artist to this day.
~fun listening to the new BEEP BEEP CD. John. Have you tried reverb on the vocals on a few of the chorus lines? ... happy to hear about your move. That was a long time for you to stay in one place...people are meant to be in motion!...You and Ritchie Furry...what a Winning Team! ...Maybe you two can open some POCO shows! That would be Fun!!! Good Luck on the new CD and your new home. Hope it's an inspiring place...stan eiza
Great Liner Note - on the new BeepBeep CD. Looking forward to listening to all of the Songs. Only 63 years young?Man You probably have at least another 10 to 15 Productive Musical Years to go - at least.
Had the chance to meet you last night at Linda's birthday party. I was there with Bob Lucero. Your lyrics are inspirational. I was the one who came up to talk about "never leave me" at the end of the party. Thank you for a memorable evening.
Caught you at Sundilla in little old Auburn AL last week....so great John - wow. Thank you for coming here-I plan to buy a few more CDs.
