Your Los Angeles Dodgers 45 - Big Blue Wrecking Crew

In 1981, Your Los Angeles Dodgers (tm) won the World Series against the New York Yankees.   How could they follow this up?  Well, they're from Los Angeles, so naturally they cut a record. 

What we get is an embarrassing cover of an annoying Queen song. 

Big Blue Wrecking Crew - We Are The Champions b/w Theme From "New York, New York" (Elektra 1981)

This record would have no legs without a cover shot.  Dodger Steve Yeager, Rick Monday, Jay Johnstone and Jerry Reuss appear in their street clothes to remind us this was the '80's.    The photo was snapped on the top of the Capitol Records building in Hollywood.

Lots of talent is behind this. Don't know any of them other than a Pocaro.  I don't believe it's the same Gary Coleman of 'What you talkin' 'bout Willis' fame.   Lost in the mix is the legendary Helen Dell at the Dodger Organ.  Before pop hit's dominated inning changes, we had Helen.  She played at the stadium from 1972 to 2014.
