John Waite, the former frontman for The Baby’s and Bad English will perform his greatest hits from his bands and solo on his first ever Australian tour in March/April.

The Baby’s broke worldwide with ‘Isn’t It Time’ in 1977. Australia was their biggest market. The song reached no 1. and the follow-up ‘Everytime I Think of You’ reached no 6.

After The Baby’s broke up in 1981 formed Bad English with Jonathan Cain and Neal Schon of Journey. Cain was also in The Baby’s for two albums. Bad English recorded two albums and had a top 10 hit in Australia and no. 1 hit in the USA with ‘When I See You Smile’.

I could go to a James Taylor show just for the stories. The man is a part of music history and is still around to tell the tales of how it all began.
