My curiosity has been nagging me about a typical, bubble-gum composition called (I believe) "Shake It, Baby" [wonderful title, eh?], which was on the charts in about 1978 or so. I remember it had a line in it about an autographed basketball. Can anyone out there tell me: 1) Who did the song? 2) What album was it released on? Thanx in advance, -Glenn

The song "Shake It Baby" was written by Terrance Boylan, and performed on his first album (1976). It was later redone by Ian Matthews in the fall of 1978, and became a Top-10 hit. Since then, Ian Matthews has released 4 more albums. Their combined sales is probably about 130 copies worldwide. And that's not gonna get the rent paid. bunkerb!mat
