Dance Band on the Titanic is the seventh studio album by the American singer-songwriter Harry Chapin, released in 1977. Its vinyl release is a double album. It was later released as a single CD. Reception Reviewed at the time of release, Sounds wrote: "Mr Chapin is such a master at his particular craft that his music itself is totally middle class, boring and as bland as the outward appearances and the public lifestyles of the men and women in his songs. So what is Chapin trying to do? Express suburban, boredom and frustration in realistic photographic detail? He does that alright." The album sold poorly, but was voted Album of the Year by The Times of London Track listing Personnel Harry Chapin – guitar, vocals Buzz Brauner – tenor saxophone Barbara Carr – vocals Stephen Chapin – piano, vocals Tom Chapin – guitar, banjo, vocals Harry DiVito – trombone Howie Fields – drums Steve Gadd – drums Marsh Lynn Goldberg – vocals Jeff Gross – vocals Neil Jason – bass Arthur Jenkins – percussion Bernie Keising – bass, vocals Art Krahulek – vocals Barbara Lindquist – vocals Theodore Marnel – vocals Craig Mitchell – vocals Nancy Newman – vocals Ronald Palmer – guitar, vocals John Quayle – vocals Elliott Randall – guitar Steve Randall – vocals Donna D.
