Mr. Groovy by Hugo Montenegro - Uhune

ALBUM

Composer and arranger Hugo Montenegro is often classified as an easy-listening artist, but Montenegro’s work also carries a certain kitsch-hip cachet that might find him filed under “space age bachelor pad music.” MR. GROOVY, composed of sessions recorded between the middle 1960s and early ‘70s, is a case in point. Montenegro’s versions of popular hits and film themes (such as “Lullaby from Rosemary’s Baby” and “Love Theme from the Godfather”) are transfigured by his use of the Moog, funky rhythms, and dramatic arrangements. This compilation enables a new generation to turn on the lava lamp and enjoy.
