About The Record:
Born Late by Shaun Cassidy is a bubblegum pop album showcasing the teen idol's smooth vocals and upbeat energy with a mix of original tracks and covers that highlight his appeal to young fans during the late 1970s music scene. It features the opening self-penned Teen Dream along with a faithful remake of The Lovin' Spoonful's Do You Believe in Magic that adds a fresh, youthful twist to the 1960s classic. An interesting fact is its connection to Eric Carmen, who penned the standout track Hey Deanie, continuing the successful songwriting link from Cassidy's prior hits. Fan-favorites often include the catchy Hey Deanie for its infectious groove and the charming Audrey for its more introspective vibe amid the album's generally lighthearted tone. The album itself reached No. 6 on the Billboard 200, while it spawned the hit singles Hey Deanie (No. 7 on the Billboard Hot 100) and Do You Believe in Magic (No. 31 on the Billboard Hot 100).
