[Coating01]

Awesome Awesome....!!! Beats rap anyday!

[Khultan]

@Coating01 Unfortunately for you, you have no real understanding of what you are saying. Very sad.

[wave60]

Isn't it funny how a pop song like this can make you feel so good and nostalgic at the same time? I was born in 1960 and this brings back such happy childhood memories. I can't stand the crap my daughter and her friends listen to lol.

[spectres0024]

Blissful memories of long summer days in the San Fernando Valley in Southern California without a care in the world - listening to Vin Sculley broadcast the Dodgers & Chick Hearne for the Lakers - playing baseball all day long -

[horsenaround]

One of my all time favorites! America really lost something special when they threw away this type of music. It was happy music, you could sing along, dance or just chill to it! Nice clean lyrics and catchy tunes! The best music the world will ever know! These songs are real treasures!

[chg657]

April, 1970. I was 12, a Big Shot, in 7th grade. Sure do wish I could go back...54 & sad, sorry Olde Pharte...

[52goodguy]

@chg657 i know how you feel was 11 then 52 now what ever happened this is good music

[sauquoit13456]

UNLUCKY 13 or LUCKY 13???: "My Baby Loves Lovin' " peaked at No. 13 and spent a total of 15 weeks on Billboard's Top 100 in 1970...

[jorindt]

Tony Burrows was a great composer,with White Plains and Edison Leighthouse.

[gweightman]

Which sad twats voted to dislike this ????

[60otaku3]

There is no accounting for tastes.

Please do not take it so seriously.

...Otaku3

[1970Dobby]

@gweightman The sad twats, as you called them, were probably, todays' offspring?

Just a guess and just saying.

[Flanative57]

Some of the Greatest Music of Our Times ....Love This !!

[MrPolkajohn]

The year was1970 and I remember hearing this great song on CKLW Windsor-Detroit. 

[SuperBoogley]

brilliant song

[999YORK]

Great time period. Great memories. great Song. How can anyone in their right mind have fond memories of Rap?

[chg657]

@999YORK No Kiddin'..

[Khultan]

@999YORK You not knowing anything on the matter is the problem.

[Mr01271976]

the music from the 1960s and 1970s is so much cleaner than the crap they have today----speaking about the crap they are putting out today no wonder we are in a culture in decline

[forestgumpaed]

i had to subscribe to you,wonderful taste in music.top draw.

[60otaku3]

Thank you very much, forestgumpaed-san!!

Otaku3 (*^o^)/

[forestgumpaed]

[PDValentine]

The great Tony Burrows.

[lkijju]

@jeff62rey. good post mate.

[zappasaurus]

Bubblegum at its very best. Who'd a thought it would be a time machine back to a very happy time in my life? Riding my bike to the beach singing out loud at the top of my lungs getting strange looks from all the ladies out watering their lawns.

[VerninTheRat]

Yer awesome 60otaku3-san! Much love from Kami station! @.@!!!

[60otaku3]

Thank you so much, VerninTheRat-san!!

Otaku3 (*^o^)/

[CarlD2]

One of the all time catchy tunes.

[TheSunbau]

Thumbs up. I really like this track. My hobby is to rediscover all of those great bands from the 60s/70s that didn´t "reach the highest level". It´s a fantastic musical treasure. Listen (Youtube) for example to:

THE ZETTLERS and their versions of "Skinnie Minnie" and "Beautiful Delilah".

Really f.....g great with a bloody driving beat.

THE GOLLIWOGS and the tune "Tell me". Check up the singer...yes, it´s him!!

[Glambert345]

Havent heard this in so long.I'm 17 again.

[chisaoboy]

Thank you for posting!

[60otaku3]

You're welcome, trucker0317-san!!

Otaku3 (*^_^)b 

[G8GT364CI]

Tony Barrows vocals, he had 4 hits in the UK top ten with three other band names at the same time along with this, Edison Lighthouse was one of them. "Love grows (where my Rosemary goes)"

[thebaggiebabe]

i just love this music , wish i was 10 again



[dnggitg]

This song has a nice bridge.

[colevandais]

Rick Wolf was the original lead singer on this specific song

[archie977]

catchy tune thnx for posting

[60otaku3]

You're welcome, archie977-san!!

Otaku3 (^o^)/ 

[AthenaOfArgos]

Just pure innocence and happiness, and blissful preteenhood. It does indeed bring a tear to the eye. I think I'll wear some bell bottoms tomorrow morning.

[Ricco99100]

I used to hate this song with a passion while I was at Military Academy. Now, I'd like to see a lot more of this style of music

[colevandais]

I love this song! The actual singer, Rick Wolf, is my music producer so I'm very proud. He's the best!

[sjsingle1]

@colevandais

Ricky Wolfe was in the band....but wasnt Tony Burrows the lead singer on this hit?

[preimperial]

What a great happy song. One the very best of the optimistic upbeat pop songs we all remember so well from a great era.Thank you for posting this.

[60otaku3]

You're welcome, preimperial-san!!

[uszoninyc]

With the voice of Mr. Tony Burrows - the English Ron Dante, of great, faceless pop records.

[KingPuddinsdaddy001]

my baby loves lovin, oh yeah!

[sigbreach]

Oh man...this song is so sweet. Brings back tears to my eyes about my youth, running after my first girlfriend. Thanks for posting.

[60otaku3]

You're welcome, sigbreach-san!!

Otaku3 (*^_^)b

[marty65380]

But doesn't it already take you there when you hear it? These songs are bookmarks in our lives and simply playing them puts you on that bike, next to that one girl or your friends or wherever you were when you heard it. You can probably remember the moments and conversations verbatim. But would you really want to remain?

[smartiepantsize]

Wish i could go back to then great music.

[jeff62rey]

I'm simply a kid of 10 again when I hear this song! I'm not dealing with dishonest and unrealistically demanding clients. I'm home in Northwest Ohio, hanging out with friends on bikes. I'm feeling that puppy-love, sickeningly sweet feeling of boy trying to understand girl feelings. I'm holding hands with Lisa and trying to process undefined tingly sensations. I'm secure because Mom and Dad are at the breakfast table with me and all seems well in my little world and White Plains plays on.

[Keeks4]

@jeff62rey so very true.....

[chisaoboy]

@jeff62rey What a wonderfully written comment! It took me right back! Thank you!

[rutgersmike]

@jeff62rey

man I know that feeling. I kind of felt it reading what you wrote. Aint nothing better than that feeling.

[jeff62rey]

@rutgersmike Isn't it great that we can still resurrect those great old feelings? The Music makes the Memories and brings them back in all their Technoclolor beauty.

[58riceman]

@jeff62rey Man I can't express it any better than that!

[davidwalach]

OMG I think I had 99% of the songs on this page...high school flashback...they sure sound better now! so much great music from the 70s...it truly was a time...

[1912Universal]

Another great hit played on "The Now Explosion" 1970.

Robert Whitney.............so ahead of your time:-)

[schuller51]

Great song, from a great era..., glad I was there !

[archie977]

great song:}

[ViolaPressley]

Another of my favorites since I was young. I was born to love music, good music. Music that is good for the heart/soul and respectful. Many are surprised when they see that I know just about all the words to all of my favorite songs that I've known and liked since a young girl.

[MrRodnas1]

great song remind me of the days when i played in a club band in england,, young long hair i loved it,,,,dreaming to make it big or biggish,,,well one day it happend,so when i think back at them lovely days i think of this song ,also my girl friend at the time ( who i loved ) use to hit my head when it come to the part ,,,,i cant believe my luck so i knock on wood,,,maybe she was right,,,thank you so much for posting it,i been very very lucky most of my life,,but as iwrite this tearsmyeye

[60otaku3]

You're very welcome, MrRodnas1-san!!

Otaku3 (*^o^)/

[RosebudliasCabochons]

@MrRodnas1 Memories can be so strong .. and emotional. Happy days :)

[jeff62rey]

I was only 10 at the time, but every time I'm frustrated at my job and they turn on the oldies and this comes on, I'm back there, riding bikes with Mike, or swimming with this cute little blond girl named Beth, or eating fresh cookies Mom had just made 10 minutes earlier. Do you know those feelings friends?

[BILLFRANCIS1956]

Great song - when music was music with orchestras, brass and harmonies.

Wish i could be transported back to the 70's. Lucky to have been a teenager and in my early twenties back then.

[suziQ27]

yep, class of '72, I knew this song by heart~

still do.

[schuller51]

Great song, great memories,..., from an even greater time.

[EXPOSER2BE]

wow ! 

[CRXPhil]

Good song

[jeff62rey]

My baby loves lovin." My baby's name was Michellle and I met her the summer of 70 when my folks decided that we would summer at a campground in North west Ohio. I was an introvert and I didn't want to do anything but read a few good books that sunmer, but Liz was the girl who wouldn't let that happen.  We arrived on a Friday evening. Liz caught my eye on Saturday morning at 8am as we made a fire. Our radio played, " Baby love s lovin." My future 'Baby' looked over and I fell hard.

[humpfry23]

Curious to know who sang the great high pitched vocals at the end of the song--It really finishes it off--once you hear it you wont want to hear the version without it--someone has to know who that is--what range--William Hall high/ class of 71 when this came out-undefeated soccer team-W hartford CT.

[mrmusic1953]

White Plains didn't exist as an actual recording band. They were merely one of the showpeices for studio singer Tony Burrows. He sang lead and recorded under four or five different band names. It was an ingenious marketing ploy to create record sales. He was also lead singer on the recordings for Edison Lighthouse, First Class, The Pipkins, and others. If you don't believe this, type in Tony Burrows on Google and see for yourself.

[TheEctomorph]

Back in 1970 - when this great track by White Plains was in the charts - most British pop/rock stars looked like hippies (well, a substantial proportion of them did, at any rate)! All that was to change, however, in 1972 - when glam rock (with all its flamboyance and androgyny) burst on to the music scene, big time.

Imho, one of the greatest - if not THE greatest - purveyor of glam rock was Mr Marc Bolan. What an enormously talented and innovative man he was. God rest his soul.

[TheEctomorph]

Excellent. "My Baby Loves Lovin'" by White Plains is a classic light pop song from the (very) early 1970's. I think that i am correct in saying that the excellent Tony Burrows provided the lead vocals on this track. (A few months earlier, Mr Burrows had also sung lead on Edison Lighthouse's chart-topping single from 1970, "Love Grows (Where My Rosemary Goes)".

[joboots007]

Great song! Thank you Otaku3 friend:)

[kjchicago1]

@60otaku3 This song came out in 1970 when I was nine!

[101yesman]

@kjchicago1 You're 50 years old and have the maturity of a 9 year old?

[kjchicago1]

@101yesman I remember listening to this 1970 cut on WLS Radio(The Big 89)AM Radio, that is! When I was little!

[101yesman]

@kjchicago1 Cool, yeah I listen to WLS quite frequently on 94.7 and Dick Biondi has still got his mind together for the most part. You being 35 years older than me, I have to ask you how life was back then? Falling in love themes like it was a recurring theme. However, do you feel it was any different back then. Music like this and the media must of helped the generation feel more attached toward one another. I would love to hear any love stories you may have or any stories about life back then.

[laaspen]

@kjchicago1 I wasnt even born when this song came out. loved it first time I heard it!!

[tommieparch]

tony belongs in the rock n roll hall of fame, in the new bubblegum catagory/ now im gonna listen to beach baby...

[jimmythec1960]

...magic of Tony Burrows!!

[Fersomling]

Eighth grade, Denbigh High School in Newport News when this song came out.

The girl that never knew I had a big crush on her was....Maury Merritt.

[stingray1964]

@60otaku3 Man such a great era for one hit wonders....I was only a little kid at the time but I have fond memories of hearing all of these on my transistor radio, I guess that was the craze back then. Nowadays kids have to have cell phones and I-pods to fit in.

[kjchicago1]

Man, I wish they would make songs like this just like in 1970 and the other years!

[999YORK]

1970 was a great year for music.

The magic of Tony Burrows!!

[jeff62rey]

I heard this song on the Oldies station while driving to Buffalo last week. I was sort of mesmorized for 40 miles on I90 thinking about the first time I heard this with Tricia at the pizza place, July '71. We were sitting there having a Pepperoni and Cheese, looking into each other's 17 year old eyes, getting tingly fingers holding each other's hands, shooting each other those "make-out eyes." O how music makes the memories.

[ultraroadmap]

@jeff62rey I didn't get those tingly fingers feeling from holding a girl's hand till the 71/72 school year, but this song sure made me think of the many girls I wished I could get tingly over!!

@jimmythec1960....yeah...Love Grows.....

[LadyVacuum]

I work as a cashier at a store that often isn't very busy.

If nobody is around when this song starts playing on the radio, I'll start dancing at the cash register.

[mrREDBIRDFAN]

@LadyVacuum That has to be a good perk. Cuz every time I hear this song I feel the same way.

[FezTickle]

such a happy song!

[themanhootch]

Isn't this song by Edison Lighthouse? Isn't this group, with Tony Burrows, Edison Lighthouse? They were a studio band. Never toured, as far as I know.

[60otaku3]

Yes, Edison Lighthouse sang the another version of this song unlike White Plains.

And the vocalist of both bands was Tony Burrows.

Where did you get this version of the track? I have searched high and low on iTunes and Amazon and they all don't sound like the original. Could you let me know where you got this one? Thanks.

westsidestory212@yahoo.com

[Greatstuff365]

The man with the moustache is Tony Burrows NOT the guy with the hat!

[60otaku3]

Oh....thank you for correcting my mistake, Greatstuff365-san!!

Otaku3 (^_^;)

[scoobots]

I have a silly question to ask:

Which one of those guys is Tony Burrows??

Thank you.

[60otaku3]

The man of a black hat is Tony Burrows.

Otaku3 (^_^)b

[Pamfino3]

@scoobots Sorry to correct 60otaku3 but the guy in the hat is Robin Box. Tony Burrows is the guy next to him with the moustache. If you find the black and white Top Of The Pops video of 'Love Grows (Where My Rosemary Goes)' you will see Tony Burrows (minus moustache) singing lead - singing it live too! It's currently at the bottom of the 'Suggestions' list on the right of this video. Enjoy Tony - he was a great singer!

[Pamfino3]

@scoobots

Correction! The video of 'Love Grows' that I mentioned (posted by SoundzNice) has had the live audio replaced with the recorded version of the song. There's several posting of the live performance with the original audio - nyrainbow4 has one of the best copies.
