  • Michael Corby and John Waite were the absolute best. Loved the Babys!

  • This sound cannot be duplicated it cannot be played or sung any better. This is the studio recording and along with The Golden Mile are the two mystical tracks on the album. Another song that is impossible to reproduce is I'm Falling. Corby's genius is that you never get tired of this music, you marvel at his construction of such a musical masterpiece. All four musicians held these recording gems in the palms of their hands when this album was recorded in late 1977. It's almost as if music peaked at this point in time.

  • Waite is bringing me back to my high school days, I really miss everything there used to be. Then I had fallen in love with this number and another one "I'm falling" in this album. In late 70's to early 80's of South Korea, the only great hit song in this album was "silver dreams", so most people didn't know this beautiful number.

  • I’ve always liked the Babys, I like this song a lot especially the guitar work at the very end, but as a bass player it’s killing me that John Waite keeps reaching down to turn down a bass that’s not even plugged into an amp. Maybe it’s just a habit of something he does while playing bass.
