PLAYER - "PLAYER"


Jacket Cover (above)

     Here is the 1977 33rpm self-titled album Player. This was the rock band Player's second album and second as well for RSO Records. #RS-1-3026 in stereo. It contains their first and only #1 song, "Baby Come Back." The record is in new condition because it has not been played. I've owned this copy for a long time but have never played it. The jacket is still in new condition with small cutout bottom left. The sleeve inside is also in excellent condition.


Jacket Back (above)

     Best remembered for the late-'70s chart-topper "Baby Come Back," Player was formed in Los Angeles in 1977 by singer/guitarist Peter Beckett (formerly of the U.K. group Skyband), bassist Ronn Moss and guitarist/keyboardist J.C. Crowley. After adding drummer John Friesen, Player signed to impresario Robert Stigwood's RSO label and issued "Baby Come Back," which sat atop the pop singles chart for three weeks in early 1978. Their self-titled debut LP appeared that same year, as did the follow-up, Danger Zone. Crowley exited Player soon after, later enjoying a solo career as a country artist. The remaining trio issued Room with a View in 1980 before Moss and Friesen both departed as well. Beckett, the lone remaining founding member, continued the group for one final LP, 1982's Spies of Life, before retiring the Player name to mount a career as a songwriter and solo performer. Moss, meanwhile, joined the cast of the daytime soap opera The Bold and the Beautiful in 1987; he and Beckett reformed Player in 1995, soon after issuing the reunion LP Lost in Reality.    Text ©All Music Guide
