Vic Cook and the Echos (Adventure)

I thought I would highlight this 45 by Vic Cook. I've had it in my collection for several years and would like to learn more about him.  He does a good classical guitar instrumental cover of Ernesto Lecuona's "Malaguena". "What Will Happen To Me?" on the other side of the record is an extremely depressing lament of a lost love. The label reads "Where there is new sound, there is Adventure". Let me know what you think of the record.

    Wow Thank you Bob. I've never seen that album you mentioned. I'll keep my eyes open for that one. The 45 with the Esquires is very good."Teenage Heartbreak" is a nice teen ballad. As always thank you again for the additional information.
