Christopher Cross marked a defining moment in soft rock when it first arrived in 1979, introducing listeners to the heartfelt songwriting and smooth vocals of Christopher Cross himself. With radio classics such as “Ride Like the Wind,” “Never Be the Same,” and the Grammy-winning “Sailing,” the album quickly established Cross as a leading figure in the genre and set the standard for melodic, introspective rock of the era.
This expanded edition, released by Omnivore Recordings in 2025, features 11 rare and previously unissued tracks, all restored and mastered by Bernie Grundman and Michael Graves for a rich listening experience. From beloved hits to overlooked gems like “Minstrel Gigolo” and “The Light Is On,” Christopher Cross continues to enchant with its lush arrangements and sincere storytelling, making it an essential addition for music lovers and fans alike.
