Poor, talented pop rock eighties star, Christopher Cross was one of the first victims of the emerging early 80's music video revolution. His 1980 self-titled debut was a multi-platinum smash and won multiple Grammys. His followup sold much less, as the MTV video age was dawning and sadly Cross had the looks only for radio. His career never flourished again. But, his first few hits, especially, "Ride Like The Wind" and "Sailing" are enduring classics.
