Prado's distinctive style, with its combination of Cuban rhythms and jazz influences, is on full display here. The infectious grooves and playful melodies will have you moving and grooving from start to finish.

Prado's music is just as relevant and exciting today as it was when it first burst onto the scene. So, if you're looking to inject some fun and energy into your life, look no further than PEREZ PRADO's "King Of Mambo." Get ready to shake, shimmy, and salsa your way through this exhilarating musical journey.
