Hall and Oates (1978) Pleasure Beach

One of the closing tracks on Hall and Oates' 1978 Along the Red Ledge, produced during their harder rock phase of the late 70s when they were also working out their New Wave deliveries ahead of their 80's smash hits. Starting off slow and delicate with some gospel sounding wall of sound before John Oates, the writer, explodes into an echo chamber vocal, belting out rhymes cheerfully along with a groovy saxophone jam and audio clips of girls screaming all in a 50s' styled Spring Break vibe.
