“Plays Your All-Time Party Hits” by Joe Loss and his Orchestra - album review
features in: Album Chart of 1971 ● Album Chart of the Decade: 1970s |
Well, hey if you’re going to have a tea-party you might as well get the grandmaster’s lot on. They do a superb conga! Often it’s a spirited and sharp performance - but it’s spoiled by the low points including the “vocal performances” at the end and the “canned clapping” between tracks. How stupid did Music For Pleasure think we were? Don’t answer that please…
