Neil Sedaka ~ Bad Blood 1975 Pop Purrfection Version

Neil Sedaka is one of the great career comeback stories of the 70's, beaten only by the Bee Gees. In the space of eight months he had three of his songs hit #1, "Laughter In The Rain", "Love Will Keep Us Together" and "Bad Blood". This was because Elton John took an interest in the veteran's career and signed him to his Rocket Record company bringing him back into the spotlight. He had a Las Vegas residency opening for the Carpenters at the Riviera but the audiences and critics were paying more attention to him, the opener than the main attraction. One night he introduced two audience members to all, Dick Clark and Tom Jones. The next day he was asked to leave the residency but not before he signed a contract with the Riviera to come back as a headliner! After "Laughter In The Rain" the official follow up was "The Immigrant" about John Lennon's immigration status in the US. It peaked at #22 when the third official release from "Sedaka's Back" was "That's Where The Music Takes Me" was issued. Sedaka kept checking on the charts for the song and found that the RKO Radio network had a new song they added. It was not the official label follow up but a song from a previous album released only in the UK entitled "Overnight Success". That song did not credit the second vocalist who was Elton John, but he could be heard clearly singing the duet with Neil. That was enough for RKO to take a chance on the song. It sprinted to #1 and stayed there for three weeks becoming Neil's most successful single ever. He went into his past for a new ballad version of his 1962 #1 hit "Breaking Up Is Hard To Do" for his next single and the new version peaked at #8, but was a #1 Adult Contemporary hit for one week. That album also had a song "Lonely Night (Angel Face)" that the Captain & Tennille recorded and it became a #3 hit spending three weeks there in early 1976. His last Top 40 single was an emotional duet of Neil with his daughter Dara for "I Should Have Never Let You Go" a #19 pop hit in the spring of 1980 that he recorded for his new label, Elektra.
