Cha Cha is the first live album by Dutch rock and roll and blues group Herman Brood & His Wild Romance. The album produced one single, "Still Believe." On the Dutch album chart, the album reached #2 on 13 January 1979, and stayed on the chart for 18 weeks.[1] The album was certified gold in 1979.[2]
Cha Cha is also the name of a movie filmed in 1979 with Herman Brood, Nina Hagen, and Lene Lovich, whose soundtrack was released separately on LP, also called Cha Cha. In the movie, he marries Nina Hagen; in reality they had a brief affair.
Cha Cha was re-released on CD in 1991 by Sony BMG/Ariola.
All tracks composed by Herman Brood; except where noted.
The single "Still Believe" (with "Jilted" on the B-side) reached #15 in the Dutch Top 50 on 30 December 1978, and stayed on the chart for ten weeks.[3] The single draws interest in Germany and France also.[1]
