48 years ago today, September 30, 1978, Helen Cornelius debuted at #78 on Billboard’s Hot Country Singles chart with “What’ Cha Doin’ After Midnight, Baby”. It went on to peak at #30 and spent a total of 8 weeks on the chart. #vinylcommunity #remembering #countrymusic #vocalist #song #musicislife

I was doing research on which songs made their debut on this day and came across this song. I don’t think I’d ever heard it before, but it sounds like something I might have heard on ACC with Bob Kingsley.

I like it a lot! I listened to it about ten times in a row while I was gathering information, photos and such.
