Kuře v hodinkách

Kuře v hodinkách is the only studio album by the Czechoslovak fusion band Flamengo. Its title is usually translated to English as "Chicken in the Watch", as depicted on the album cover. The record was released on the Supraphon label in 1972. Poet Josef Kainar wrote most of the lyrics, except for the song "Stále dál", which was penned by producer Hynek Žalčík. The recording was banned by the Communist regime under Normalization, and the band broke up shortly after.
