Mambo Vol 17 - Mexicali Baby | TWILIGHTZONE

 "MEXICALI BABY" A New Kind Of Mambo Vol. 17

This volume shows how the mambo beat has influenced some of the best modern bands. A non-stop rocking party!

Mambo is a Latin dance of Cuba which was developed in the 1940s when the music genre of the same name became popular throughout Latin America. The original ballroom dance which emerged in Cuba and Mexico was related to the danzón, albeit faster and less rigid. In the United States, it replaced rhumba as the most fashionable Latin dance. Later on, with the advent of salsa and its more sophisticated dance, a new type of mambo dance including breaking steps was popularized in New York. This form received the name of "salsa on 2", "mambo on 2" or "modern mambo". - wiki

Now in the interests of of keeping the Mambo theme going after spotting the Fess and Nawleans influence on earlier volumes there is this. Noting that there is nobody on this election who I have heard of (not difficult I grant you!) so enjoy and report back if you feel it!
