Though little is known around the world about this band past this top fifteen single, the band is still in existence today, and continues to perform in the club circuit.
Formed in the Rio Grande Valley, the original members included guitarists Danny McKenna, Balde Silva, Art Mendoza, bassist Steve Zipper and drummer Rob Young. After numerous club performances around South Texas, the band moved to San Antonio, Texas and received a major record deal from RCA (now BMG). This deal would recruit the production talents of Sean Delaney, who at the time was also producing KISS. In addition, guitarist Mendoza was replaced with guitarist and banjoist extraordinaire Ron Rose, who added a country flavor to the band.
Their self-titled debut LP appeared on RCA in 1978, with the single "My Angel Baby" topping the easy-listening charts and falling just shy of the pop Top Ten; 1979's More than a Love Song failed to recapture its predecessor's success, however, and after issuing If You Believe a year later, Toby Beau was dropped from their contract. The band continued playing the Texas club circuit during the decades that followed, however, still with Silva at the helm.

Hi Marc. Thanks for commenting. Actually, Toby Beau was the name of the band. The guy on the cover is singer Balde Silva. They made 2 albums (Toby Beau/My Angel Baby, 1978 and More Than A Love Song, 1979), but the other members left the band after the very limited succes of the 2nd album. That left only Silva left, so he made the 3rd album (If You Believe, 1980) himself, assisted by an assortment of studio musicians. He adopted the Toby Beau name for himself, and still performs under that moniker.
Best place to find more music from Toby Beau, would probably be Spotify. This CD is not cheap to find, since it was only released in Japan, but it's doable. :) Good luck, good health, and thanks for listening.
