| Were you to mention
the name Christopher Cross to a group of average Joes-on-the-street,
you’d be certain to elicit one or more of the following responses:
“Oh, yeah -- Sailing!", “He did that Arthur movie
song", ”Ride Like the Wind rocked!” Pressed any
further, the same people might respond along the lines of, “Where’d
he go?” or “He just put out that green album with the
stork on it and disappeared.”
But mention to those folks some other titles -- Never Be the Same,
Think of Laura, All Right, et al -- and you’d probably see
the recognition register. “I guess he did have more hits”,
or perhaps, “I remember now -- his second album was that pink
one with the duck on it.”
