The Babys - Anthology - VINYL LP

2 CD SET Born in 1976, The Babys exploded onto the UK rock scene proving to be a competitive force in the Bad Company tradition, and pioneering the sound that become known as the 80s Power Rock Ballad. Billboard chart-climbers like Every Time I Think of You, Midnight Rendezvous and Isn't It Time helped to launch them into worldwide recognition while also helping to carve out their permanent place in music history. The Babys classic songs have withstood the test of time - with their hits still being played continuously around the globe, and influencing bands of 'the day' and emerging artists respectively. Reunited by co-founders TONY BROCK and WALLY STOCKER, new members include ROCK VAULT vocalist JOHN BISAHA and BOYSTOWN guitarist JOEY SYKES, The Babys set about to re-record and re-image their classic hits and cut 15 new classic songs that comprise this 2 disc set.

Liner notes by Andrew J Gardner (The Bolan Society / Warrior Music) and brand new unique LP design by Les Clark, remastered by Anders Peterson at Ghost Sound Sweden.

2014 4X vinyl LP pressing reissue of the 2003 collection. Anthology serves as a celebration of The Clean, a band whose influence extends so far beyond their New Zealand home that even if you have never heard of The Clean before, you have surely heard of some of the bands (Pavement, Yo La Tengo, and Superchunk, to name a few) who have been influenced by their unique blend of homemade garage rock, hook-filled melodies, and psychedelic experimentalism.
