"Dancin' In The Moonlight" - Orleans In Concert - Pure Joy - RadioDAZZ

Share this ARTICLE with your colleagues on LinkedIn .



I know, I know...everybody remembers the King Harvest single of this song. And yes, King Harvest's version was fabulous -- it had us dancing around our dorm rooms when no one was around, and humming in the courtyard, and well...happy.

"Dancin' In The Moonlight" is a great, simple song, filled with joy.

The less well-known version, done by Orleans (not too long ago -- they were all grown-ups) is superior musically, with richer harmony, better solos, steel drums (!), and some very harmonious guitar work.

Click on the link below and enjoy this fabulous, flowing version. Before you do, a fan on You Tube explains the relationship between King Harvest and Orleans:

Q: "i thougt king harvest wrote this!"A: " User@Canaboy12   The writer is Sherman Kelly while in the Ithaca NY-based band Boffalongo, 1969. That band also contained his brother Wells Kelly and Larry Hoppen, both of whom left Boffalongo to join John Hall to form Orleans. Sherman and other Ithacan musicians formed King Harvest and had the hit version in 1973."Listen:
