I do appreciate this music. Dion was one of my very favorites. Ruby Baby was out in the horrible year of 1963 when we lost JFK (I was a freshman in HS). I loved Ruby Baby because it was my step-mother's name. And I loved my step-mother. Don't remember Drip-Drop. Was probably the B side of Ruby Baby? Then there's Abraham, Martin and John, which immortalized Dion forever more in my young mind. Tears come to my eyes every time I hear it to this day. Especially on this day, in this year, of my life.
