The Montanas - Ciao Baby
Review by Abdullah Ebraheem
Montanas' album "Ciao Baby" is a delightful mix of classic rock and country tunes that will transport listeners to a simpler time. From the opening track "Ciao Baby" to the closing number "Ride the Wind," the band showcases their versatility and musical prowess.
The album's standout tracks include "Lonely Nights," a heartfelt ballad that showcases the band's emotive vocals, and "Heartbreak City," a catchy and upbeat tune that will have listeners tapping their feet. The album's production is also noteworthy, with crisp and clear instrumentation that allows each instrument to shine.

Fantastic recording of a fantastic song from this Wolverhampton group.
I've just heard this on Boom Radio and had to listen again!
I prefer this to the original version.?
Amazing harmonies
Let me go back to the 60's. This era is shit!
Lynn Randell smashes this song. The english version is very mellow and nice.
is this the song Scott English wrote?
Like The Montanas version a lot better - their music and harmonizing is such a pleasure! :)
I thought only Lynne did it.Thanks.
Class group who I used to see regular in Newcastle-upon-Tyne. Scandalous they weren't big in this country..Band I was in covered Sentimental.
i think the Montanas are brilliant love Suzzane
Done in New Zealand by Craig Scott
A good effort, but Lynne Randell's version is still the definitive one.

Its been 50years now since i was involved with the boys as their first manager agent.I remember the days clearly and especially the studio gig with the Moody Blues.
I remember the Woolpack days and the many working mens club gigs.The rest is history
Lost touch but met Bill Hayward on my 60th at his abode and enjoyed the company of Bill & Carol and Roger Allen immensely.
I now live in Adelaide Australia and often wonder how the boys in the band are doing.

What a group, how they and Herbies People never made it to the very top is one of life's many mysteries. Thank you for this reminder of my youth around Wolves and Bilston.
Agrees with john, fabulous in their day and great to hear them again.
The main theme is almost indistinguishable from "You've Got Your Troubles" by the Fortunes. The middle part is similar to "Always Something There To Remind Me". However, despite this, I like this number very much and remember it, as I started full time employment in 1967.
I agree about 'The Fortunes" sound to this track...maybe because both groups were produced by Tony Hatch
I've never heard THIS version, only Lynne Randell and the Toys. The Montanas makes it sound like a Fortunes song.
A 60's band called the Crockers will be appearing at Brierley Hill Civic on Dec. 10 featuring 3 original members of The Montanas plus members of Finders Keepers, Californians and Light Fantastic . Tickets on sale from Dudley council plus
@OASISWOLFMAN ----Do you happen to know which members of Light Fantastic are going to take part ?? --Im hoping to get to the gig all being well . Cheers
Well thats great news , I really hope to be there , Im sure the evening will be a great success and will no doubt bring back many happy memories , no mention of Johnny Jones ? --is he not going to be there ?
Want to be there, a wonderful blast from the past.
