Raydio s winning streak continued in 1979 with their second
album, Rock On, and their major hit, You Can t Change That.
Raydio s self-titled debut album was a tough-act to follow. With
Detroit-born singer, songwriter and producer Ray Parker, Jr. in
the driver s seat, that early 1978 release went gold in the United
States thanks to sales of more than 500,000 copies and the
single Jack and Jill was a major hit, reaching #5 R&B and #8
pop in Billboard in the U.S. in addition to making it to #11 in the
UK, #4 in Australia and New Zealand and #5 in Canada. But
Raydio kept the commercial and creative momentum going
with their second album, Rock On, which was released by Arista
Records in 1979.
Rock On, like Raydio, was certified gold in the U.S. by the
Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA), and a major
factor in the album s success was the single You Can t Change
That. A laid-back, mid-tempo soul-pop groove that found
Parker and Raydio s Arnell Carmichael sharing the lead vocals,
You Can t Change That climbed to #3 on Billboard s R&B
singles chart in the U.S. and #9 on the Billboard Hot 100. Another
single, the moody More Than One Way to Love a Woman,
peaked at #25 R&B in Billboard in the U.S. where Rock On made
it to #4 on Billboard s R&B albums chart.
