Michael John Siddons-Corby aka Mike Corby (born 3 July 1951, Windsor, Berkshire, England) was a guitarist and keyboard player with the 1970s and early 80s rock group The Babys.
Corby left the group during the recording of their third album Head First and according to lead singer John Waite in a 2005 interview on Brisbane radio station 4KQ, Corby departed from the music scene altogether.
Corby claims he was called to a meeting with management on 28 August 1978, and was asked to leave the band which he had formed with the late Adrian Millar. This information has been preserved by Corby and is detailed at The Babys Official Unofficial Archives and Chronological History website
Through the website, his retention of documents and photos, and his MySpace page, Corby has done much to inform the public about the origin of The Babys. The Babys official MySpace page also contains film clips from Mike Corby's collection of original performances from the band during their early success.
