Baby, Come Back (album)
1968 studio album by The Equals
Baby, Come Back is an album by British group The Equals, which was released in the U.S. by RCA Victor, who had obtained the rights to manufacture and distribute the album in all of the Americas from the band's British label, President Records.
The record contains tracks culled from their first three UK albums, Unequalled Equals (1967), Explosion (1968), and Sensational Equals (1968). Two of the tracks were taken from Unequalled: the UK chart-topping single "Baby, Come Back", and "Hold Me Closer". Three tracks came from Explosion: "Police On My Back", "Teardrops", and "Leaving You Is Hard To Do". The remaining six tracks came from the band's third British album, Sensational.[1]
Because it was built around the group's biggest hit, "Baby, Come Back", this was the group's most commercially successful album in the U.S. Despite the fact that the album is a showcase example of British Invasion-era beat music, it has never been available on CD. The only other known alternate configuration for the album was as an 8-track tape cartridge – RCA catalog number P8S 1388.[2] (The 8-track also contains an additional song not present on the vinyl album: the ballad "Is It Right").[3]
