Cha Chas For Dancing By Montenegro

Perhaps, Perhaps, Perhaps
Cha Chas For Dancing
Arranged and Conducted by Hugo Montenegro
Time Series 2000 S/2018
1960

Terrific space age big band Cha Cha record by Hugo Montenegro. Montenegro would go on to make a number of trend setting records using the moog which influenced future generations of electronic musicians. He also scored the main theme to Sergio Lenone's film, The Good, The Bad And The Ugly.

The jacket is a book-fold design influenced by Enoch Light's Command Label who created a style of  book-fold jackets that featured minimalist art on the covers. I also have this album issued a single jacket.
