Bang Bang - Xavier Cugat And His Orchestra

Bang Bang
Bang Bang
Xavier Cugat And His Orchestra
Decca DL 4799
1966

The set exactly reflects the space cool vibe of the cover art! What more could you ask for? Cugat, himself said that "I would rather play Chiquita Banana and have my swimming pool than play Bach and starve." And here he is, keeping up with mid-60s Chiquita Banana light pop trends.

The album is great fun all the way through!
