Other than the fact that this was written and recorded by Gerry Rafferty and was a follow-up song to Baker Street, I am not able to find much in the way of background or trivia about the song. I don’t think I knew that Rafferty was Scottish … I did learn that much … or perhaps I knew it and had forgotten. I also did not know that Gerry Rafferty died of liver failure in January 2011. By all accounts, his life from about 2008 was not a happy one.
The song reached #5 in Canada, #12 in the U.S., and strangely did not chart at all in the UK.
