I love watches!!! I own a Jaeger-LeCoultre Tourbillon so it is cool to see a clip with all these watches.

@chuckbuckbobuck Thanks. I just went on Google images and found as many images as I could on time pieces. Lots of cool stuff.

I've always enjoyed the handsome & talented Mr Montez's version of this 1940's classic tune. He also made the 40's hit "The More I See You" popular to a new generation in the 60's. What a unique talent! And what a dynamite arrangement. And I love the photos involved in your montage! KUDOS! Thank you VERY much for sharing this delightful "blast from the past" with us! You have without a doubt MADE my day & my weekend! :)

@JubalCalif Growing up I heard him do "The More I See You," "There Will Never Be Another You," and "Call Me," but interestingly not this one. It wasn't until listening to a nostalgia station more recently that I discovered this. I loved it, and it was the only one of his hits not posted on YT at the time, so I posted it. Thank you very much for your kind comments.

@JubalCalif One more thing. You called him the "handsome" Mr. Montez. That makes me laugh as it brings to mind the DJs back in the '70s that referred to him as the "lovely" Chris Montez, poking fun at the fact that he sounded like a female.

Good to have this underrated Chris Montez recording back along with the multitude of chronometers!

[MrTrashcan1]

Then I assume you weren't the one who gave it one star. :-)

@MrTrashcan1 I actually thought it was a woman singing "call me"...until now!...after so many years!

[MarkCarbon1]

Great music! Chris' voice and the unmistakeable sound of "The Wrecking Crew" backing him up. Classic stuff!

[VintageVelvetSoul]
