"Baby's In The Mountains" comes from Correspondence, Peter Godwin's 1983 album, a song he wrote and sings himself with Carol Kenyon on backing vocals. Look at the credits and you can guess the sound before you hear a note: four people on keyboards, Godwin himself plus Paul Fishman, Georg Kajanus and Raphael Preston, with Sean Lyons on guitar. Kajanus produced it and Preston engineered, and the two of them worked out the arrangement with Godwin. It's sleek, moody keyboard pop, the kind of record some stations clung to for two decades after it came out.
