Shon, I was 30 years old when this came out in 1977, and it seemed to play on the radio constantly. What a wonderful reaction. You are my favorite when it comes to authentic reactions. Keep going, you are loved.

It was an era in music development unrivaled even by the classics like Chopin and Bethoven, and their ilk. Electric guitars coming on scene was like throwing gas on a fire in how massive was the growth from 1945 to the 80s. Boomers fueled the growth with their romantic coming of age around 1960-65. 60s 70s and 80s will never by repeated but luckily we have recorded it all and can play the icons of then, over and over, icons for the ages.

‘Baby Come Back’ reached #1 Jan 14, 1978 and stayed there for 3 weeks… and stayed on the Billboard Chart for 32 weeks! Longer than any other song in 1978. I was 15 yrs old… I’m blessed to have grown up in the best music times ever 😁
