Original released on LP RCA Victor LPM 3332
(US, 1965)
Once available as an LP in the '60s on the RCA label, you can now enjoy it in CD format. The liner notes describe in Hugo's own words how he envisioned all the women named on the disc. Such as "Theme for Irma" being derived from "Irma La Douce". With the exception of "Candy's Theme" all the names relate to women in films, in spite of that,the haunting "Candy's Theme" is my favorite. You must remember that this music was created when recordings needed to be relatively short in play time to accommodate radio airplay. That meant that two minutes and thirty seconds, give or take was the 'sweet spot.' Montenegro makes the most of the short play time and doesn't disappoint, with this foray into musical history. To twist an old quote «'Candy is dandy, but listening won't rot you teeth!» Take a bite and enjoy the orchestra and chorus of the late Hugo Montenegro. And, finally, what you think about the gorgeous cover?

Rato, muito obrigado!
The music is very nice, but the cover is excelent. I love these "cheese" and sexy covers, from the 59's and the 60's. Thank you!
