Little Eva - The Loco Motion

sagerock

Review by Sage Lewis

Little Eva's album, The Loco Motion, is a timeless classic that has stood the test of time. Released in 1962, the album features the hit single "The Loco Motion," which became an instant sensation and a dance craze that swept the nation.

The album is a showcase of Little Eva's unique vocal style and her ability to deliver catchy and upbeat tunes that are impossible not to dance to. The songs are a mix of upbeat pop and soulful ballads, all of which are expertly crafted and showcase Little Eva's impressive range as a singer.

The standout tracks on the album include "Keep Your Hands Off My Baby," "He Is the Boy," and "Let's Turkey Trot." Each of these songs is a testament to Little Eva's talent and her ability to deliver songs that are both fun and meaningful.

What really makes this song is Earl-Jean McCrea singing "Gobble Gobble Diddle-it". She has such a sexy voice. Gerry Goffin thought so as well.
