GENERAL HOSPI-TALE - AFTERNOON DELIGHTS LP 81


 Was going to use this as my one disco album this week but sounded too much like Blondie per discogs:

Early 80's one hit wonder. A team of Boston based musicians and female vocalists got together only to record one album "General Hospi-Tale" in 1981. It was a parody of a TV soap opera "General Hospital".

Their only hit was a single "General Hospi-Tale" off that album. It used a beat from Blondie's hit song "Rapture" and went to #23 on R&B, and #33 pop on Billboard charts in summer 1981. After that the group was forgotten to history.
