The Mayor of Mt. Holly wrote about the wonderful Chris Montez on his blog, and found this 1966 video of his song “The More I See You.” Good stuff.
Oh, man how I love Chris Montez. I got turned on to him by my good pal John P. of King Cat fame, and if that is not reason enough to believe that Mr. Montez isn’t something of a ray of sunshine on the face of all living creatures, check this!
Those Beatles fellas opened up for Chris Montez at his 1962 London show!
It is alleged that while in London for said show he got into a fight with John Lennon in a pub and that Lennon poured a pint over his head at one point.
Mr. Herb Alpert signed Chris Montez to his fledgling A&M record label, resulting in 3 amazing records of laid back, cheery, latin-infused bliss.
