Player is an American rock and pop band known for their soft rock sound that emerged in the mid-1970s. Based in Los Angeles, the group features Peter Beckett as a prominent member. They made waves with their hits, particularly “Baby Come Back,” a soulful ballad that showcased their knack for catchy melodies and smooth harmonies. Another notable track, “This Time I'm In It For Love,” further cemented their reputation during a time when radio was dominated by polished rock sounds.
