Magical Mambos (126)
On the program this week, we’re bringing you more mambo! That music with the fiery rhythm that was all the rage during the early part of the hi-fi era hitting its peak in the mid-1950s. It’s music that came up from Cuba, made its way through New York’s Latin quarters, and then filtered its way through the rest of the US. We’ll hear from Cal Tjader, Joe Loco, Tito Rodríguez, and many more.
