        The Babys were never anything essential, IMO...

        but then John Waite wasn't really anything exceptional after the Babys, either.

            I have a handful of their songs on a CD-R laying around somewhere. Ok to listen to now and then, and certainly better than anything Jon Waite did after the fact.

            I was really into them for a while back in the day...not so much years later, of course.

              How there is a HUMBLE PIE without Steve is a mystery......

                Guy I lived next to in my college dorm used to play that Union Jacks non-stop. Got sick of it after awhile. They did have some good tunes back in the early 80's though, Midnight Rendevous et al.

                  John Waite makes me wanna vomit. And I could never get past

                        Solid musicians, for sure. Either you were into their stuff or you weren't; one of those bands that you REALLY loved or REALLY hated, I don't think to this day I've ever met anyone that was 50/50 about them.

                        Mostly forgotten about now...
