General Theme: ( This file is over 21 Meg. ) This was my introduction to Latin rhythms. I heard it in the mid to late 50s while I was in junior high school. I never imagined back then that I would one day be able to find it on CD 40 years later. It is a collection and mixture of Latin and American music. By the time I got to college the rumor was that you could ply a young lady with fine wine, play this side of the album and get ready for a wild night. I never did find out if that was true because I was such a good boy. Yes, this is the same Perez Prado of "Patricia" fame. He is a percussionist/conga player besides being an orchestra leader. He cut "Patricia" just to get into the mainstream and make money. He wasn't making much money in Latin Jazz. Your media player will misinterpret the actual playing time. Don't worry about it. It will play in its entirety. This isn't Christmas music.....just a special presentation. |
