"The Best of P?rez Prado: The Original Mambo No. 5" (02/07/2006) International Prado, Perez, RCA Records (USA)Liner Note Author: Eddie Gorodetsky. Cuban-born Perez Prado was one of the main popularizers of Latin music in the postwar U.S.: his mambo instrumentals formed part of the soundtrack to the country's 1950s prosperity. Nowadays regarded as a kitsch delight, tunes like "Cherry Pink and Apple Blossom White," "Mambo No. 5," and "Patricia" once featured heavily in the pop charts in both America and Europe, and were also included in contemporary movie soundtracks like Federico Fellini's LA DOLCE VITA. This best-of gathers many of Prado's most popular pieces, including "Anna (El Negro Zumbon)" and a kitschy reworking of SNOW WHITE AND THE SEVEN DWARFS' "Heigh-Ho," in a homage to Latin big band pop.

"Mambo Happy: Perez Prado" (09/14/2004) International Prado, Perez, BMG Special ProductsThis BMG reissue of Perez Prado's 1958 album MAMBO HAPPY! (complete with retro-classic cover art) walks a giddy, irresistible median between technically accomplished Latin jazz and kitschy showmanship. The cartoon-like horn charts and choral grunts and shouts of "Go!" on the opener, "Go, Go Mambo," or the romantic, swoon-inducing vocals on "Wild Mambo" speak volumes for Prado's commercial footing in the mainstream mambo craze of the time. But the music overflows with syncopated glee, reveling in irresistible grooves churned up by complex, tight-knit percussion, circular piano and bass motifs, and a blazing frontline of dynamic brass. So while the call-and-response screeches, growls, and yelps on "Broadway Mambo" may give serious Latin jazz fans pause, there is no denying the chops of Prado's orchestra, or the tremendous fun they generate.
