Let There Be Music is the third album from the soft rock band Orleans, the first album on Asylum Records. The album spawned two charting singles, including the title cut, which peaked at No. 55 in May 1975, and "Dance With Me", which peaked at No. 6 in October 1975 on the US Billboard Hot 100. Cash Box said of the title track that "a great power chorded intro leads into a crisp rocking number which is reminiscent of the sound of the Doobie Brothers, The Who, and about a half dozen others" and that the "anthem-like qualities of this rocker and fine instrumental interplay add up to a hit." Record World said of the track that the "band comes up with the California brand of country rock boogie a la Eagles." Classic Rock History critic Millie Zeller rated it as Orleans 3rd best song, calling it a "soft rock delight" and stating that "The guitar riffs of this song were simply amazing. If you want that great tune perfect as you’re on the road, 'Let There Be Music' is it."
