Cabaret - King Richard's Fluegel Knights

MTA Records MTS 5003
1967

King Richard was Dick (Richard) Behrke. He put out a number of albums on MTA, including Just Some Of Those Songs Mrs. Robinson and Something Super. Somewhat obscure, all of these albums are great space age fare featuring inventive arrangements and a peppy 60s light pop sound.

From Billboard, March 4, 1967: With their rendition of the title tune riding the Easy Listening charts, this LP follow-up featuring other recent pops should be a much-programmed item.
