At This Moment
~ Billy Vera & The Beaters ~
Vera wrote for the likes of Barbara Lewis and Rick Nelson during the mid-'60s before recording his "Storybook Children" as an R&B duet with Judy Clay in 1967 for Atlantic. It proved a solid hit, as did their 1968 follow-up "Country Girl - City Man." But it was 1887 before Vera surfaced as a solo artist when "At This Moment," a song he'd cut in 1981 with his band, The Beaters, was featured on the popular TV sitcom
Family Ties and topped the pop charts.
