4	Havana 3 A.M. (1956) more music like this by Perez Prado Following the successes of his previous albums, mostly reissues of proven hits in Mexico, Prado was entitled to do his own, progressive thing at least for one album.

8	Prez (1958) more music like this by Perez Prado "Prez" was the album that brought Perez Prado, the King of the Mambo, into the American mainstream. On the record, he rearranged pop hits to fit the Latin dance idiom, adding a few genuine mambos for good measure. Though the album wasn't pure mambo, it was simply delightful music and it illustrated how to bring world music to a broader, popular ... see all copies from $4.00!

16 view cover	Ritmo (2006) more music like this by Beny Moré It is a shame that it took Ry Cooder to shed some light on literally dozens of dynamic talents from Cuba, but thankfully they are receiving their due, albeit posthumously in some cases. Benny Moré died in 1963, but he is often regarded as one of the leading legends of the Latin scene, and no wonder.

22 view cover	Nu Latin: The Fresh Sounds of Today's New Latin Music (2004) more music like this by Various Artists Like many various-artists anthologies on the Union Square group of labels, Nu Latin is not so much a best-of for its genre, or even strongly thematically linked by a mini-genre or region of origin.
