Product Description
CD Description
1954 was the year when the Afro-Cuban sound dubbed the Mambo crossed over into the mainstream and predictably brought with it a wave of commercial novelty hits like Rosemary Clooney’s “Mambo Italiano”, Bill Haley’s “Mambo Rock” and Perry Como’s “Papa Loves Mambo”. These anaemic recordings were far from the real thing, of course, which had initially attracted Latino audiences with the delirious sound of high-register trumpets, tight percussion, riffing horns and straightforward, infectious melodies to appeal to dancers of all backgrounds. CD1: Perez Prado – Mambo No.5 / Mambo Jambo / Marilyn Monroe Mambo / Mambo A La Billy May / Mambo A La Kenton / The Peanut Vendor / Ballin’ The Jack / Skokiaan / Tito Puente – Caravan / Pito Joe / Arrollando / Ricci Ricci / Undecided / Friquilandia / El Yoyo / Por Tu Amor / Slim Gaillard – Babalu / Sabroso / Puerto Vootie / Bongo City. CD2: Dizzy Gillespie – Manteca / Cubana Be / Cubana Bop / Algo Bueno / Machito – Tingo Talango / Rumba En Swing / Porque Tu Sufres / Blen Blen Blen / Si Si, No No / Tumba El Quinto / Holiday Mambo / Tanga / Benny More - Babaratiri / Ana Maria / Locas Por El Mambo / Tocineta / Anabacoa / Maria Cristina / Perez Prado – St. Louis Blues Mambo / Cherry Pink And Apple Blossom White.
