I had the great pleasure of seeing this super tight band live[ca.78] in Jersey City as part of a showcase of RCA label bands.They were the highlight of the night!
Toby Beau performed at Summer Rock I in KC at Arrowhead Stadium May 29, 1978 and this song went over great. I had heard it before the concert and the concert version was fantastic!
On any given "Toby Beau" album, you might find a nice mixture of "Country" and "Blue Grass" music. But one day in 1978, lead singer "Balde Silva" decided to put down the banjos and pick up an electric guitar. He allowed his high pitched Falsetto voice to do the singing for just one time in history. The results would send shock waves throughout America during a very hot July, when "Silva" and Toby Beau scored their first and only top 40 Billboard hit song ever with, "My Angel Baby!"
Don't discount Danny McKenna's part in this song. The great guitar work that makes this song grab you from the start was his doing, if memory serves. Great guy and great loss.
Yes Toby Beau! I like this song so much, I wrote a lyric of my own in my language (malay).That was more than 20 yrs ago! Even Westbount Train in here! Thanks for posting.
These guys are from my home town.....Donna, Texas, at least something other than drugs came out of it....haha

Thanks so much for posting this song I have not heard in a while. 70's music was the best and brings back great memories.
