1	The Best of Mambo (2004) more music like this by Perez Prado Orchestra see all copies from $8.85! new only from $8.85!
2	Pops and Prado (1959) more music like this by Perez Prado Orchestra Pops and Prado is deceptive. At first glance it appears to be a regression to the "cha cha-fication" of gringo tunes. It is erratic for a Prado album, from the dull "Manhattan" to the highly infectious "Three Little Words" and "You're Driving Me Crazy!" But the use of two organs, or double the signature sound of the next phase of Prado, is ... see all copies from $10.00!
3	Big Hits by Prado (1960) more music like this by Perez Prado Orchestra Big Hits actually is a powerhouse anthology: the first definitive, stereo collection of mambo hits. All were re-recorded for stereo in "new arrangements" as the jacket advertises. A couple originally were recorded in stereo, e.g., "Patricia" and "Why Wait," but were not available in stereo, even as late as 1960. The most desirable selections are ... see all copies from $4.00!
4	Mambo by the King (1956) more music like this by Perez Prado Orchestra The "Special Issue" stamp on this reviewer's copy must mean the fact that it is a reissue of the 10" LP of the same name plus four of the six tracks from the first U.S. Prado LP, Perez Prado Plays Mucho Mambo For Dancing. While nothing new, it would have been advantageous to have both "Mambo Jambo" and "Mambo No. 5" on the same album for the first ... see all copies from $10.00!
5	Latin Satin (1957) more music like this by Perez Prado Orchestra The last of the monaural-only Victor LPs, Latin Satin is otherwise distinguished as Prado's cha cha cha album. Prado himself has been quoted as doubting any difference between the mambo and cha cha cha. Here he is doing something deliberate. For the most part, he is infusing sluggish, dance-tempo tunes with as full a blare of trumpets as in any of ... see all copies from $7.95!
6	Dilo (Ugh!) (1958) more music like this by Perez Prado Orchestra Dilo (Ugh!) explains the Prado grunts. "Dilo" means "say it," or when given as instruction to a trumpeter about to solo, "express yourself" or "blast it." Apart from the Spanish lesson, the album is the first with "Patricia," the smash hit of the summer of 1958 and the tune most identified with Perez Prado. "Why Wait" is another big single, ... see all copies from $10.00!
7	Rockambo (1961) more music like this by Perez Prado Orchestra Rockambo is the first truly modern, stereo album by Prado. It and later LPs make it clear why Perez Prado is the foot in the door for many younger, raised-on-rock fans exploring older music. It may be tempting to think of this as Latin-rock music, and to some extent it is. But really it is a change in tempo, more like Latin at the pace of twist ... see all copies from $29.04!
