dbo:abstract
  • The Babys are a British rock group best known for their songs %22Isn't It Time%22 and %22Every Time I Think of You%22. Both songs were composed by Jack Conrad and Ray Kennedy, and each reached No. 13 on the U.S. Billboard Hot 100 and No. 8 on the Cashbox chart in the late 1970s. The 1976–1978 Babys line-up consisted of keyboardist/guitarist Michael Corby, vocalist/bassist John Waite, drummer Tony Brock and guitarist Wally Stocker.The group signed a contract that was the highest ever for a new music act at the time. Two studio albums, The Babys and Broken Heart went without incident and were well received. However when recording Head First in August 1978, the band Michael Corby was replaced by Jonathan Cain as keyboardist and Ricky Phillips to take over as bassist. From 1979 until the breakup in 1981, The Babys line-up consisted of vocalist Waite, drummer Brock, bassist Phillips, guitarist Stocker, and keyboardist Cain.John Waite went on to produce a major solo hit, %22Missing You%22, in 1984. Stocker and Brock worked with Rod Stewart and other mainstream artists including Elton John and Air Supply. Cain left to join Journey. Waite, Cain and Phillips joined Bad English in the late 1980s. Phillips currently plays for Styx.In 2013 it was announced that Brock and Stocker had reformed the band, alongside vocalist/bassist John Bisaha and guitarist Joey Sykes. In 2014, The Babys released their latest album %22I'll Have Some of That!%22 - the first album in over 30 years - produced by Tony Brock at his studio - Silver Dreams Studios in California. The Babys took to the road for the first time in over 30 years in 2015. Northeast, Southeast, West Coast and MidWest shows have had great response.
