charon 4,943 Posted December 11, 2018 Baby come back by the Equals.? Eddy Grant had it on his own but not sure if in the 70's. Defo was a minor hit when I was leaving school. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Defo was a minor hit when I was leaving school. Nope. They were a four-piece 'American' band and the writer is American. The minor hit would be about the time you were starting school.
