Let's Have a Party

"Let's have a Party" is a 1953 ragtime medley by pianist Winifred Atwell. It entered the UK charts on 4 December 1953, spending nine weeks there and peaking at #2. It entered the charts again the following year, appearing on 26 November 1954 at the same time as a follow up Let's Have Another Party. This time, the single had a six week run, and peaked at #14.

Let's Have a Party is also the title of a very different 1957 song written by Jessie Mae Robinson and recorded by Elvis Presley for the movie Loving You. A version of this song was recorded by Wanda Jackson in 1960. It entered the UK chart on 1 September 1960, spending eight weeks there and reaching #32.
