Comments and Reviews

TheDroid 22nd Feb 2017		This is a pairing of the first two Orleans albums. The second album, Orleans II, was not released in the U.S. at the time. Apparently ABC in U.S. did not hear a hit, and dropped them from the label. They must have been surprised when a year later Asylum would release "Dance With Me" as a single and it climbed to #6 on Billboard chart.
