PRATT & MCCLAIN

Pratt & McClain-Pratt & McClain (1976)

1. Happy Days
2. Raised On Rock
3. Summertime In The City
4. Night Ride
5. Tonight We're Gonna Fall In Love
6. Our Last Song Together
7. California Cowboy
8. Who Needs It
9. Whachersign
10. Devil With The Blue Dress

Pratt & McClain were a couple of commercial jingle singers in Hollywood. They were chosen by the ABC networks to record the new version of the Happy Days theme and the rest is history. The song was released on 45 and made it to #5. So they got the chance to record a full album. Produced by Steve Barri & Michael Omartian (Rhythm Heritage), the album is a mix of sunny California pop and 50's nostalgia. But the hidden track is the funky rare groove of Whatchersign.

Thanks for this ... do you by chance have their other album? I believe it was self-titled.
