Can Can Bunny

Jive Bunny and the Mastermixers anticipated the megamix boom of the mid-to-late '90s, assembling a seemingly endless series of dancefloor-friendly medleys of pop oldies. The brainchild of British producers John Pickles and Ian Morgan, Jive Bunny came out of nowhere in 1989 to top the UK charts with their debut single "Swing the Mood"; when the follow-ups "That's What I Like" and "Let's Party" both reached number one as well, the duo became only the third act in history (behind Gerry & the Pacemakers and Frankie Goes to Hollywood) to score chart-topping singles with each of their first three releases. Jive Bunny–The Album appeared in 1989 as well; subsequent singles including "That Sounds Good" and "Can Can You Party" reached the British Top Ten, but the group's stay in the limelight was brief and 1990's It's Party Time failed to repeat the commercial impact of its predecessor.

An often forgotten fact is that in 1989, Jive Bunny And The Mastermixers joined the elite few, whose first 3 singles reached No. 1 in the UK Singles Chart, after Gerry and the Pacemakers and Frankie Goes to Hollywood! The debut single ‘Swing The Mood’ reached No. 1 around the world and even charted at No. 11 on the US Billboard Hot 100! Between 1989 and 1992, Jive Bunny And The Mastermixers achieved 8 Top 40 hits in the UK, seven of which are included on this collection, ‘Swing The Mood’, ‘That’s What I Like’, ‘That Sounds Good To Me’, ‘Can Can You Party’, ‘Let’s Swing Again’, ‘The Crazy Party Mix’ and ‘Over To You John…’, plus the updated ‘Let’s Party 2008’, which includes last year’s belated No. 1 song ‘All I Want For Christmas Is You’! This 3CD collection of 30 individual Medleys, contains more than 3 hours of music and includes snippets of more than 200 songs. From Swing to Pop, Disco to Rock, Movie Themes, Rock ‘n’ Roll, ‘70s, ‘80s, Summertime…you name it, there’s something for the entire family for the biggest party of the year.
