From the back cover: The Rhaburn Boys are back... For those of you who were not fortunate enough to accompany them on their most successful tour of the Greatest City in the world, we bring you a souvenir of their efforts. From the night they performed for a full house at the Manhattan Center, and throughout all their other appearance in the Metropolis, the Combo has lived up to its greatest expectations, evidenced buy this, their third album.

The musical selections were as varied as the style in which they performed, whether it was their mainstay, the Calypso, or the Boogaloo... the present craze of the U.S.A.
