The BABYS were a Band I Listened to
Throughout The 70's to Early 80's...
(Still Do!)
And, None of My Friends Could Understand WHY?
For One...
MOST of My Friends Back Then were STUPID!
and Two...
They Didn't LISTEN to The Albums!
(Just Went by What They Heard On The Radio!?!)
But, The BABYS Played The Singles Game
The Record Execs Wanted Them to Play...
(Most of Them with Time in the Title...)
Then Filled The Rest of The Album with
Great Rockin' Songs!
(Kinda Like SWEET Did...
Remember The Singles, The Albums & Then LIVE!)
THIS Concert's Pretty Special!
It's Got The Popular Songs as well as
Some That Went Unreleased...
Like Stick To Your Guns, Outlaws Of The World,
Restless Heart (Which would Show Up on John Waite's
No Brakes LP - with a Different Arrangement!)
They Were Recording The Union Jacks album Durin'
This Time and Preview a Couple Songs...
Plus There's a Great Drum Solo from
"One Take" Tony Brock!
(There's a Story There That Has to Do
With Bob Ezrin, a Bet and a Click Track!)
The Babys - Agora 1979
Here's The Second of Two Agora Shows...
This One from 1980!
Just After The Release of Union Jacks...
(Which I Bought Jan. 1, 1980 in the USA!)
NOTE: WIKI says Jan. 8, But I Remember It Bein' Like The
Very First LP Release of the New Year!?!
They Play About Half Of That Album Live!
Plus, Songs from Previous Records...
Run To Mexico was Such a Badass Song Back Then...
(Nowadays, Folks Seem To Be Runnin' The Other Way!)
IF You STILL Just Think They're a POP Band...
Well, You're WRONG!
And, You Oughta D/L THIS,
Just To Hear How WRONG
