Louis Clark & The Royal Philharmonic Orchestra - Hooked On Class

Hooked on Classics was a series of record albums first introduced in 1981, toward the end of the disco era's peak in popularity.

Louis Clark, former arranger for Electric Light Orchestra, conducted the Royal Philharmonic Orchestra playing a collection of very recognizable extracts from classical music pieces played over a continuous beat (sometimes an overtly disco fast beat, sometimes a slower and more subtle rhythm) which linked the segments together.
