Musical Interlude: Wasn't That a Party (1980-1)

 From season 1 of Solid Gold:

The (Irish) Rovers tried to go country with 1980's "Wasn't That a Party", but barely cracked the top 40 on the country chart. Still, it was enough to land them on Solid Gold as an opening act, interrupted briefly by then-host Dionne Warwick.


This song comes to mind after I had reconnected with some old high school mates last night for a little wing-ding. There's still hope for a full-on 40th anniversary class reunion, as our organizer targeted Thanksgiving weekend, just like the first two reunions in 1991 & 2001. Unfortunately, there isn't an official video of "Party" to be had, but if this doesn't get ye up dancing 'til sundown, I don't know what will. Begorrah!
