AllMusic[1]

Where's the Party? is the fifth

studio album by American rock musician Eddie Money. The album was released in October 1983, by Wolfgang Records and Columbia Records
.

Money described the album as more upbeat and positive than his previous album No Control, saying, "We're ready to rock.... We're all in a party mood, and the album reflects that."[2]

The album peaked at #67 on the

synth-bands of the time.[3]

In a 1986 interview promoting his following album, Can't Hold Back, Money stated that Where's the Party? "sold about 280,000 units. For the money I spent on it, it wasn't enough."[4]

Where's the Party? was Eddie's last album to carry the Wolfgang Records logo.
