CD DetailsSynopsis
Album Description Three years after 1999's multi-million-selling 'Onka's Big Moka', comes the sophomore album from the British act. So named after the Los Angeles hotel in which they stayed during the recording, 'Magic Hotel' brings together Toploader's unique blend of influences. First single 'Time of My Life' showcases a joyful stomp of classic rhythm & blues, while 'The Midas Touch' comes on like the theme to a lost Bond movie, elsewhere, there's a West Coast vibe to the track 'Leave Me Be', which embraces the Californian call to live & let live & offers enough sunshine to brighten even the grayest day. 2002.

CD ReviewsHow could you not like good music like this? A. Feinberg | NY United States | 04/26/2003 (5 out of 5 stars) "If you love good soul and funk, then just buy it. You can dance to it, groove to it in your car, or whatever. It's just good music. It doesn't matter who they are "trying to be" (if that is even true) and it doesn't matter that they sound like they want to have been on Atlantic or Motown records, it's all good. Forget about judging them and listen to the music, and you'll want to buy this album, I know I did." Mega david haycock | doncaster, yorkshire, ENGLAND | 09/10/2002 (5 out of 5 stars) "this cd is great you can listen to it over and over again." Hmm All Sounds A Bit Samey Vince Boxall | Crawley, UK | 11/05/2002 (3 out of 5 stars) "I must admit I borrowed this album and i hated 'Dancing in the moonlight' as it just got played to death, i just wanted to smash the radio everytime that horrible 'plinky plonky' bit started , so i am probably not the person to be writing this review. I really wanted this lot to do well as i am from the same town (Eastbourne) but i just couldn't get into it at all. Joe Washbourne is trying so hard to be Marc Bolan it is painful in places and i just couldn't really find any stand out singles tracks. It ventures too often into that horrible 'dad rock' territory, previously reserved for Paul Weller's drab new offerings and Ocean Colour Scene (last seen playing my local leisure centre)and look what happended to them!. I think Toploader arrived too late and could have been bigger 6/7 years ago.It's not a bad album, just not a good one"
