SHEESH! THESE GUYS ARE ON FIRE WITH THIS GROOVE! First Time Hearing Player - Baby Come Back Reaction

[@DanielFrost21]

The 70s was such a great decade for music.

Absolutely. Long Summers, great music, freedom and not a hint of today’s whining entitled narcissists.

Along the same lines of smooth easy listening is another group named, Ambrosia. Couple of smooth ones from them are: "You're The Biggest Part of Me" and "How Much I Feel".

[@mikefixx7177]

And Holding on to Yesterday was a big hit

[@frankmerris8821]

i concur Ambrosia is so smooth with alot of hits

I was thinking the exact same thing. . . David Pack was still at it more recently, still sounded great

Pablo Cruise, Ace.

[@Pixelologist]

Ambrosia's smooth as hell.....but they started out in a more progressive vein.

[@ldavis8145]

Ah, the 70s. Was a great time to be alive. No internet, no cell phones, and the music was amazing.

[@MountainMan.]

And the serial killers....

[@jenniferduncan4966]

@@MountainMan. there have been serial killers in every decade going back to 1700s and probably long before that. There are currently 50-200 (depending on who’s gathering the data) serial killers in the United States. I personally have been in close proximity to four since the mid 80s and have even spoken to one (of course I didn’t know he was a sk but I did get a weird vibe and immediately excused myself from the conversation). I’m sure I’m not alone. If you research sk’s in the area and time you lived there you’ll probably find out you’ve been close to a few of them yourself. Have fun lol

Another banger by Player is “This time I’m in it for love.” 2 hit wonder. 👍🏽

[@MauroJourney]

The lead singer and guitarist (and co-writer of the song) is Peter Beckett while the bassist in red shirt and trousers is Ronn Moss (Ridge Forrester in "The Bold and the Beautiful") who left the soap opera a few years ago to rejoin the band.

[@brewswillis9783]

Peter Beckett was also with Little River Band for over 8 years.

[@andreadeamon6419]

Actually Ronn was in a car accident and started having trouble remembering his lines so he left to be with the group for things he's remembered for 35+ years. I've watched his interviews

[@MauroJourney]

Yes, I remember some interviews in which he said that among the reasons that pushed him to leave the TV series there was also the fact that he lived quite far from the places where the scenes of "The Bold and the Beautiful" were filmed and commuting by car every day had become quite tiring and stressful.

[@MrThumbs63]

Ridge Forrester is an all-time name.

[@antoniojefferson948]

They've got a hot sound! Like bee gees but with soul!

[@raymondking1793]

Peter Beckett joined the Band Ambrosia, Peter is the lead singer.The bass player Ron Moss became a Soap opera star.😊

[@robertgraham3108]

This was a one hit wonder in my day. This one always comes back around when you're in that heartbreak moment and you just wonder back. That's it. Just that and that's why they wrote it and sang it for that very reason. It's a classic that will never go away.

[@JasonGilbert-yl8hf]

1 of the Smoothest songs Ever produced!!!

[@byroniasmaximus924]

As a teenager, driving on the highway, pining over a lost girlfriend, these songs became the soundtrack of my life. They don't make songs like this anymore.

[@larrybench6398]

This song was number one back in 1977 on the billboards chart

[@lindajiron2557]

Here is a fun fact, the guy in the red shirt played the original Ridge Forester on Bold and the Beautiful.

[@TruthFactsLM57]

I was 20yrs old when this song came out , now 47 yrs later its nice to see young people appreciate the music we had in our youth .

[@bigb6046]

Glad you hit on this one , it was a huge hit in 1977 , on the radio constantly (yes all we had was radio back then). Another good one that year for me was "Smoke from A Distant Fire" by Sanford Townsend Band.

[@jorgebrahim1565]

70s 80s best Time best músic ever

[@saltydeadpool4183]

Absolutely 💯 agree

[@UberDurable]

Can't get enough of this wonderful song!

[@DarrylSellers]

Player scored several US Hot 100 hits, three of which went into the top 40; two of those single releases went top 10, including "This Time I'm In It For Love" and their No. 1 hit "Baby Come Back."

[@JerseyBA62]

Many years back me n my wife went to see them along with ambrosia,firefall n little river band for our anniversary was a great show..

[@Mare_bear738]

Yes, I would also recommend the group Ambrosia. Songs like " Your the Only Woman," or "That's How Much I Feel"

[@AndICanTalk2]

There is a point in the early 80s where this, the Pina Colada song, and Lady by Kenny Rogers, were just on every station you put on the radio. So great.

[@Alberto-o5m]

It's a timeless song from 70s a great song i love it...thanks and God bless both of you!!!!! Thanks from philippines

[@billmadle1235]

Great song. I always liked that 🎶 song 🎶

[@arjendehaan1087]

Ron Moss with the red shirt played Ridge Forrester in The bold and the beautifull.

[@deanhaight7258]

It wasn't their only hit. "This time I'm in it for love" was another huge hit for them.

[@jessieball6195]

That song reached number 10 on the Billboard Hot 100 chart-none of their other songs broke the Top 40, so yeah, they are indeed considered a one-hit wonder.

[@sixslinger9951]

This song was HUGE in the 70s. I was just a kid but I remember it well blasting out of my sisters bedroom radio. haha

[@MarkS-rt9vi]

I don't think you can get more '70's than this song and video.

[@deanhaight7258]

You guys have to play "Him" from Roupert Homes. You won't be disappointed!

[@markrinehart8813]

Player had two top ten hits - #1 Baby Come Back - and #10 This Time I'm In It For Love. Other hits: #27 Prisoner of Your Love - #46 It's for You ; #48 If Looks Could Kill ; #62 Silver Lining ; #105 Givin' It All. They toured as an opening act for such artists as Gino Vanelli, Boz Scaggs, Eric Clapton, Heart, and Kenny Loggins.

[@dougpringle8938]

Didn't remember the band but as soon as I saw the song it was instantly remembered it. So many bands from then makes it hard to remember all of them but as soon as I see the song it's instantly know the words. Thanks for sharing with your KZbin family and for the memories

[@GwenByrd-d4k]

Im so glad I was born in 1955 and got to hear all the good music from back in the day.

[@Deborahtunes]

Player had one more song that hit the charts at #10 in 1977, called "This Time I'm In It For Love". Many people forget about this tune. Probably because it wasn't as big as "Baby Come Back" which went to #1 on billboard. The guy in the orange shirt was a major lead character on the soap opera "The Bold & The Beautiful"...

[@Mr17051963]

My teen years at school and the first slow dance parties. Only good memories!!! 🪩🎶✌️This and “I’m Not in Love” by 10cc were my all time favorites!

[@rankstrangertanner7124]

Man I can remember I was in High School when this came out sophomore and this song was on that FM station all the time miss those days life seem so simple and easy.

[@raycewilliams3300]

Player had a couple of other "hits" one of which was " This Time I'm In It For Love" but back then if you didn't produce a top ten hit on the charts... problems would slowly creep in. Eventually there was a lawsuit. Over time there were about 18 different members of Player. At any rate we do have this song to remind us of how beautiful that great harmonies sounded. Take care..

[@VikingJeff]

I love "This Time I'm In It For Love". I guess because this song is so good it gets overlooked.

[@JoeHernandez-p4u]

Awesome video and his voice is amazing❤❤

[@Lakeshore14]

This was all over the radio back in the late 70s. It was classified as yacht rock. Player had a few other songs but this was their big hit, actually hitting at #1 on billboard . Not sure why they broke up but one member of the group went on to act in a TV soap opera show. Thanks for the great review. 👏👏🥰🇨🇦

[@JamesBond-ib9tq]

"Yacht Rock" wasn't an official classification for the music produced during that time period (late 70s-early 80s) which was basically soft rock and adult contemporary and the term really originated in around 2005. Many successful artists like Hall and Oates, Steely Dan, Boz Scaggs, etc. found it offensive for their music to be associated with this new sub genre of music.

[@flerbus]

i remember buying this "45" at bradlees's "this time i'm in it for love" went to top 10 also so, two hit wonder

[@DarrellRaley]
