The follow-up to Lesley’s summertime hit, “Maybe I Know”, “Hey Now” was released the following fall. Mercury Records expected the R&B tinged disk to become a cross-over hit for Lesley, however it failed to meet the Mercury Execs' expectations—stalling at number 76 on the Billboard Hot 100.

Just waitin' on your line
