AmericanRadioHistory.Com 41aniameing The Release or Bee'howl& Biggest Hit hi 200 years

Once every year or so an emphatically unlikely single comes out of nowhere to render the pop cosmos, well, topsy-turvy. Such a record was Procol Harum's "A Whiter Shade of Pale" in 1967, Joe Cocker's "With A Little Help From My Friends" in the waning moments of 1968, or the Edwin Hawkins Singers'"Oh Happy Day" in 1969. Such a record is Miguel Rios' "A Song Of Joy," right now. Unlikely? You bet your booties... %%JouId you, after all, have ever suspected that a pop adaptation of Beethoven's "Ode To Joy" by a Spanish teen heart-throb hacked by an orchestra and chorus under the direction of South American Suite composer Walter de Los Rios would so electrify the alma\ t'from the Pyrennes to Toronto that even so august an observer as Rolling Stone's man in Canada and Beatle confidante Ritchie Yorke would be moved to exude in its behalf: ''... It is such an overwhelming record that once you've heard it you will remember it for life... It may well become the anthem of a generation searching for Utopia ..." %Ye wouldn't have either. But unwary though we may have been, we're only too delighted to bestow this marvel upon the United States, whose pop charts would otherwise have looked rathebarren during this, the Beethoven Bi-Centennial, without a little something by that unlikely composing chap at their pinnacle.
