The Babys - Reunited The Babys Don't Expect To Hear From Ex-guitarist

The reunited The Babys have ruled out a get together with co-founder Michael Corby, because his old bandmates insist he still hasn't forgiven them for kicking him out of the band.

Guitarist Wally Stocker and drummer Tony Brock reformed the Everytime I Think of You group last year (13) with the blessing of former bandmates John Waite and Jonathan Cain, but they haven't heard from guitarist/keyboard player Corby - and don't expect to.

Brock tells Wenn, "Corby's been very bitter because we unfortunately had to let him go a couple of years before we split up. He's never forgotten it.

"He's so bitter inside about it. He wakes up and goes to sleep bitter."

Singer Waite, who has been replaced by Johnny Bisaha in the new line-up, politely declined Brock's invite to be part of the reunion, but the drummer feels sure Cain, who left The Babys in 1980 to join Journey, is interested in coming back.

Brock adds, "When we first started talking about a reunion, I called Jonathan and he wanted to write with us in between tours with Journey. He wanted to sit in and then maybe come and work on the album but the schedules didn't work out. But he does want to do something."

The Babys' new album I'll Have Some of That is the group's first in three decades.

I wanted so bad to like this, but I don't. And I think it's mostly just the sound of the record. I imagine they might be ok live. The record sounds like a mid-west band that got a shot at a bunch of demos. I hate saying it, but that's my take.

Pathetically petty of Brock to say that.

Yeah, the new cd doesn't have anything catchy...to me it sounds like the baby's before waite and cain got there.......sort of a pre baby's cd.
