Shawn Lee's Ping Pong Orchestra - Hooked Up Classics Artist_Clarence Reid " each of which clocksShawn Lee dons his Ping Pong Orchestra hat for an album inspired by the Hooked On Classics series of the early 1980s. This popular series of albums (arranged by Louis Clark of Electric Light Orchestra fame) took well known classical pieces and gave them a contemporary re working, mostly adding a disco flavor. Lee throws his new musical twist on the idea, taking 12 favorite classical tracks and squeezing them through the Ping Pong Orchestra machine.
