Taken from the LP ‘Smash Hits ’71’ | (Music For Pleasure MFP 5229) 1971

The series of ‘Hot Hits‘, continued with an end of year round-up with six of the twelve numbers brand new recordings. The compilation was given a slightly different title of ‘Smash Hits ’71’.

Another barely clothed blonde dollybird adorns the front cover and for some bizarre reason she’s holding a perturbed looking baby, while her bikini bottoms are held safe and secure with a giant safety pin. What a lass!

Cover versions include “The Pushbike Song”, by The Mixtures, “The Banner Man”, by Blue Mink, a tongue-in-cheek novelty number “Did You Ever” by Nancy Sinatra and Lee Hazlewood and “Never Ending Song Of Love”, by Delaney and Bonnie.

I’m rather taken with a decent version of “Hot Love” which reached No. 1 in the British Charts for T. Rex.

T. Rex | Cover Version | “Hot Love”

These are twelve of the HOT HITS that are riding high in the charts. They have been excitingly recreated by talented artists who recapture the original appeal that has made them into hits.

Music For Pleasure brings you these chart busters on a single LP so if you want to make your party swing or simply wish to relish the sounds of HOT HITS, pop this album onto your record player and enjoy yourself.
