Today’s Mambo is once again all about “Mambo”, a popular dance and music style from Cuba.
In this 63rd episode, “mambo” is performed by Cubans and Puero Ricans in New York City, where “mambo” was most popular.
In last week’s episode, we discussed the start and further development of “mambo” in detail. So today we will mostly let the music speak for itself.
During this hour, the “mambo” is played by Tito Puente, Willie Colon and René Touzet’s orchestras, among others. In addition, in this episode you will also hear the Cal Tjader Modern Mambo Quintet (pictured above) and Tito Rodriguez & his Big Band Latino. Enjoy!
