Pérez Prado - La Garra De Pérez Prado
Review by Keith Miller
La Garra De Pérez Prado is an album by the renowned Cuban bandleader and composer Pérez Prado. The album features a collection of Latin jazz and mambo tracks that showcase Prado's signature style and musical prowess.
The album opens with the energetic and upbeat "Mambo No. 8," which sets the tone for the rest of the album. Other standout tracks include "Mambo Jambo," "Patricia," and "Que Rico El Mambo," which feature Prado's trademark brass arrangements and infectious rhythms.
The album also includes slower, more romantic tracks such as "Besame Mucho" and "Solamente Una Vez," which showcase Prado's versatility as a composer and arranger.

About Pérez Prado
Cuban naturalized Mexican, bandleader, singer, organist, pianist and composer (born December 11, 1916 in Matanzas, Cuba - died September 14, 1989 in Mexico City, Mexico). Brother of . Perez Prado is often referred to as the 'King of the Mambo'.
He was born in Matanzas, Cuba, where he studied classical piano in his early childhood, and later played organ and piano in local clubs. For a time, he was pianist and arranger for , Cuba's best-known musical group. He also worked with casino orchestras in Havana for most of the 1940s, gaining the nick-name "El Cara de Foca" ("Seal Face"). In 1948 he moved to Mexico to form his own band and record for RCA Victor. He quickly specialized in mambos, an upbeat adaptation of the Cuban danzón.
In 1950 arranger heard "Que rico el mambo" while on vacation in Mexico and recorded it back in the United States as "Mambo Jambo". The single was a hit, which caused Prado to launch a US tour. His appearances in 1951 were sell-outs and he began recording US releases for RCA Victor.
Prado is the composer of such famous pieces as "Mambo No. 5" and "Mambo No. 8." At the height of the mambo movement, in 1955, Prado hit the American charts at number one with a cha-cha version of "Cherry Pink and Apple Blossom White".
