Jon Cain on lead vox. :shock:

Apparently, an old Babys Song.

Anyone else ever hear of this?

Heard it...

On the Escape tour, Jon's first with the band, they played this song quite often (it's on the boots, :wink:

). Then, came the Frontiers and, later, ROR tours...Jon's 1 solo (break for SP) turned from singing to piano.

It's been years, but I remember it. I've heard a recording of the band playing Turn Around in Tokyo with Cain singing, too, from the same era.

Bullshit! That's a great song. I play that song more than others off of the bootleg.

I'd love to read a "Castles Burning part 2" interview with Herbie. Any thoughts of doing such? The first one was epic.

Anybody got 'Back Seat Betty' by JC?
It may have been is first single/45 back in the 70s.

later~

I have it. It is called "Backseat Bernice" and it is okay. Very 70s as is his other single that went Top 40 "'Til it's Time to Say Goodbye". He was on American Bandstand for the latter single. It is a better song.

I didn't know about these. Were they before or after Windy City Breakdown? Were they part of another album?

I like it. Nice little jam tune.

Never heard Cain sound quite like this vocally. Not bad there either.

They were only singles.
