The Babys
The group signed a contract with Chrysalis Records that was the highest ever for a new music act at the time. Two studio albums, "The Babys" and "Broken Heart", were well received. After recording their third album, "Head First", in August 1978, co-founder Michael Corby was replaced by Jonathan Cain as keyboardist and Ricky Phillips took over as bassist. From late 1978 until the breakup in 1981, The Babys line-up consisted of vocalist Waite, drummer Brock, bassist Phillips, guitarist Stocker, and keyboardist Cain.
