About this album
At The Third Stroke is a strong example of Russ Ballard’s polished late-1970s solo songwriting. Released in 1978, the album blends AOR, pop rock and funk with the melodic instinct that made Ballard one of British rock’s most durable writers. His knack for crisp choruses and deft arrangements gives the record its lasting appeal, with songs such as Dancer and What Does It Take showing how easily he moved between radio-ready hooks and tighter groove-led material. For listeners who know Ballard mainly through the songs he wrote for others, this album underlines how effective he was as a performer in his own right.
