Ladders is the fourth album by Gerry Rafferty. It was released in 1980,
following the success of his previous two albums, City to City and Night
Owl. The album charted at 15 in the UK but only crawled to 61 in the US.
The album was released on CD in 1998 but deleted soon after that. Some
of the songs are available on compilation albums. One of the songs, "The
Garden Of England" was recorded at Beatles producer George Martin's AIR
studio in Montserrat. All the songs were original Rafferty compositions,
though one - "Johnny's Song" - was a remake of a song which had been
previously released by his former band Stealer's Wheel.
