COME SPY WITH ME

"I AM A BIG FAN OF HUGO MONTENEGRO. WHEN YOU THINK OF "MOOD" MUSIC, "LOUNGE " MUSIC" OR "EXOTICA", YOU USUALLY THINK OF LES BAXTER, MARTIN DENNY, ARTHUR LYMAN, OR OTHER ARTISTS. BUT HUGO MONTENGRO HAS PROBABLY SOLD MORE RECORDS THAN ALL OF THEM, AND HIS MUSIC HOLDS UP JUST AS WELL. THIS CD FEATURES THE THEME SONG FROM THE T.V. SHOW THE MAN FROM UNCLE, AS WELL, AS SOME OTHER MUSIC THAT MAY OR MAY NOT HAVE ACTUALLY BEEN IN THE SHOW, BUT RUN THE GAMUT FROM LOUNGE MUSIC, TO BOSSA NOVA, BIG BAND, AND SET OTHER TONES AS WELL. IF YOU ENJOY LISTENING TO "SPY" MUSIC FROM THE 60'S,THEN YOU SHOULD ALSO PICK UP THE HUGO MONTENEGRO CD "COME SPY WITH ME" AS WELL, IT FEATURES COVER VERSIONS OF MUSIC FROM SPY MOVIES AND T.V. SHOWS, AND IS ONE OF MY TOP TEN ALBUMS OF ALL TIME. BUT THIS IS A GREAT ONE, TOO, JUST NOT AS GREAT AS THE OTHER ONE."
