The Manhattan Transfer - Lets Hang On

Review by Michael Mizner

Let's Hang On by Manhattan Transfer is a delightful album that showcases the group's signature vocal harmonies and jazz-infused sound. The album features a mix of classic and contemporary songs, all of which are given a fresh and exciting twist by the quartet. The album opens with the title track, a spirited rendition of the Four Seasons hit that sets the tone for the rest of the album. The group then moves on to cover songs such as "Groovin'" by The Rascals and "Trickle Trickle" by The Videos, infusing each one with their unique style. The album also includes some original compositions, such as "Happiness is Just a Thing Called Joe" and "Too Busy Thinking About My Baby," which showcase the group's songwriting talents. Throughout the album, the vocal performances are outstanding, with each member of the group contributing their own unique voice to create a cohesive and impressive sound. Let's Hang On is a must-listen for fans of vocal jazz and anyone looking for a fun and uplifting musical experience.
