Check out the video below to listen to a popular song by Chris Montez. This song, titled “Let’s Dance,” was recorded and released in 1962 when Montez was just 19 years old. It was written and produced by Jim Lee. The song achieved great success, reaching the number 4 spot on the Billboard Hot 100 chart in the US and the number 2 spot on the UK Singles Chart, where it remained for four weeks. It sold over one million copies and even received a gold disc for its achievement.
The 60s were undeniably a golden era for music. One of the many remarkable artists to emerge from the 60s was Motez. He gained significant popularity, with even the Beatles opening three of his concerts while he was performing alongside Tommy Roe. After his early music lost its popularity, he managed to make a comeback with the release of “Call Me” in 1966.
