The Richard Hewson Orchestra - What Shall We Do When The Discos Over

cashmereheart

Review by Dani Thornton Stock

The Richard Hewson Orchestra's album, What Shall We Do When The Discos Over, is a timeless masterpiece that blends disco, funk, and orchestral arrangements seamlessly. Released in 1978, the album is a testament to the genius of Hewson, who was renowned for his work as an arranger and conductor for artists such as The Beatles, Diana Ross, and Cliff Richard.

The album's opening track, "I Can't Give You Anything but Love," sets the tone for what's to come, with its infectious disco beat and soaring orchestral arrangement. The album's standout track, "Love Bite," is a funky disco number that features a catchy bassline, soulful horns, and a groovy rhythm section that's impossible to resist.

Other highlights include "The Crunch," a funky instrumental that showcases Hewson's skills as an arranger, and "Shine on," a beautiful ballad that's elevated by the orchestra's lush strings and Hewson's emotive piano playing.

For some reason, this song has an ominous tone, especially at the beginning. I don’t know why. It just does.

This is fantastic! So classy....! Mr Hewson was a stalwart of British TV show and entertainment show music, etc. This was big in the US discos. Of course he later formed the RAH Band with his wife singing lead as she does here. There was an lp or 2 also. Magnificent.
