"A Long Run Home"
In 1981, Cerone recorded "A Long Run Home," a song released as a 7" single on the Reel Dreams label. The song, written by Carl Henry and Bill Hudak and recorded in Newington, Connecticut, is sung from the point of view of a Newark baseball player visiting a New York Stadium during a snowstorm. The record sleeve notes that "Rick Cerone's royalties will be donated to the Italian Earthquake Victims Fund." The single failed to chart in the US.
