Shaun Cassidy - Right Before Your Skies (1978)

The 1978 "Under Wraps" album by Shaun Cassidy wasn't particularly good overall, but... this song was VERY good! This and "Taxi Dancer" are classics, both written by Cassidy himself. To this day, I remember the lines "I hear the place was packed last night / But last night's group played basketball..." 40 years later (!), his voice is also lush and gorgeous.

Places please
The lights go down
A brand new town
And we all look the worse for wear
Hiding on the stairs
Holding on to all we know
Surrounded by the protocol
I hear the place was packed last night
But last night's group played basketball...
