The Tra-La Days Are Over is a 1973 album by American singer-songwriter Neil Sedaka. Overview The album was the second to be produced at Strawberry Studios in England in collaboration with Graham Gouldman, Lol Creme, Kevin Godley and Eric Stewart, who had formed the band 10cc since their first joint venture with Sedaka on Solitaire (1972). The album, which consolidated his return to popularity after his lengthy absence from the charts, yielded two hit singles for Sedaka, "Standing on the Inside" (No 26 in the UK and No 10 in Australia, June 1973) and "Our Last Song Together" (No 31 in the UK, August 1973). The latter track commemorates the ending of his partnership with lyricist Howard Greenfield; the album title is taken from a line in this song. Another song, "Love Will Keep Us Together", became a US No.1 for Captain & Tennille in 1975. Their version peaked at No.32 in Britain. The Captain & Tennille acknowledged Sedaka's authorship as well as his early-1970s comeback by working the phrase "Sedaka is back" into the song's fadeout. On the liner notes to The Tra-La Days Are Over Sedaka added the dedication: "Thanks to Mike Curb for letting me have my way." Release In 1982 Polydor Records, which had by this time acquired the rights to The Tra-La Days Are Over, re-issued the album as part of their "Special Price Series". In 1991 Polydor re-released the album on CD, the first CD issue for this album. In 2004 they reissued the album again in the UK, this time as part of Universal Music's 50th Anniversary Archive Collection. In April 2012 the program from The Tra-La Days Are Over was re-released in combination with the program from the 1975 album "Overnight Success" on CD by BGO Records.
