Genuine Electric Latin Love Machine - Richard Hayman

The Windmills Of Your Mind
Genuine Electric Latin Love Machine
Persuasive Electronics By Richard Hayman
Arranged and Produced by Richard Hayman
Command/ABC 947S
1969

Hayman got everything right on this album. His command of a variety of period technologies and pop sounds is a masterful. Hayman blends early electronic (sounds), moog and natural instruments (including a terrific vocal passage on The Girl From Ipanema) into lively arrangements that breath life into many of the standards covered.

The engineering is outstanding.
