“Joining forces with Manuel Galban, former member of Cuba’s premier vocal group of the 50s and 60s, Los Zafiros, Mambo… plays homage to the Perez Prado school of cha-cha rock ‘n’ roll (there’s a delightfully cheesy version of Prado’s ‘’Patricia’’ here). Sinuous rhythms courtesy of old pal Jim Keltner, collide with girly choruses—all Duane Eddy holidaying in Havana. Remember the seedy Cuban club Fredo took Michael to in The Godfather Part 2? This is the soundtrack.”

    I heard about his passing just now, it's truly sad. I am however really looking forward to the posthumous release of his new album, BlueChaCha. http://www.montuno.com/Galbanecard/albumpressreleas.php
