Summary: The best starting place for mambo
Comment: Perez Prado pretty much invented mambo, plain and simple. Sure, you can point to earlier artists as having laid some of the groundwork for it, but it was Prado who brought it all together as one genre. If you are interested in getting into Prado's works or the mambo genre as a whole, this is a good sampler to pick up. Sure it doesn't have all his best works (the "Voodoo Suite" probably couldn't be included here due to its length) and it does have some of his more tame works (the first two tracks where big hits so they pretty much had to be included here), but it has a lot of his best songs. His best songs are the best things the mambo genre ever produced - full of loud squeling horns and shouted vocals. In other words, great stuff to dance to. Try to track down a used copy of this, as it probably is the best Prado compilation. While you're at it, also pick up Rhino's Tito Puente compilation (also out of print), Rhino's "Mambo Mania" sampler, and Prado's "Voodoo Suite" album (the title track is probably his best work).

Summary: A little bit of Perez...
Comment: This CD collects 20 of the best recordings by "The King of the Mambo", including the #1 hits "Cherry Pink and Apple Blossom White" and "Patricia". If you like the mambo, you will definitely enjoy this CD.
Customer Rating:
Summary: A cheeseball classic!
Comment: If you get a kick out of the some of the lounge classic discs (as I definitely do), you'll love this one."Cherry Pink and Apple Blossom White" is one of the top ten lounge hits of all time, of course. But the rest of the album is every bit as much fun, with all the cliches of mambo, like the loud karate-style grunts, taken to the max. I've got the Ultra-Lounge "Mambo Fever" disc, but it doesn't come close to this one if you're looking for a definitive mambo collection. Liner notes are also excellent. The only minus is some shaky sound quality, but that's something you learn to live with if you like pre-seventies pop.

Summary: A great CD
Comment: Prado, of course, invented the Mambo. Really, he did. He took a straight angled big-band sound and twisted it into a crazy cauldron of repetetive rhythm, overlayed with intersecting horn solos and driven by a savage, primal heartbeat of bongo and conga drums. You hear Prado's work all the time, on waffle commercials, in the supermarket or in elevators in drab cheerless remixes. But in those places, it's robbed of the frenetic energy, the fantastic and infectious thunder that makes you want to DANCE!Without Perez, we'd have no Tito Puente, no Buena Vista Social Club, no Gloria Estefan. They all owe a tremendous debt to Prado's wild experiments. This album is a little heavy on the treble, so keep that in mind while playing, and set the equalizer accordingly. The songs are fantastic, there are no real stand alone favorites, I love them all.

Editorial Reviews:

Damaso Pérez Prado was one of Latin music's most inventive bandleaders--literally, as he merged jazz elements with guaracha rhythms, creating the potent concoction known as mambo. The 20-track Mondo Mambo! gets Prado's two biggest U.S. hits, the rather tame "Cherry Pink and Apple Blossom White" (1955) and the ultratame "Patricia" (1958), out of the way quickly, the better to serve up track after classic track of blaring horns, deep-dish percussion, and shouted exhortations by the master himself. The great Beny More adds vocals to the beyond-torrid "Babarabatiri" and two other numbers, while Prado lays down some daring Monk-style pianistics on "Pianolo." (The disc also includes Prado's original "Mambo No. 5," which Lou Bega turned into a daffy smash in 1999.) --Rickey Wright
