Mambo (1938 song)

"Mambo" is a 1938 danzón nuevo ritmo by Arcaño y sus Maravillas. It was composed by the band's cellist/multi-instrumentalist Orestes López.[1] The piece includes a final section with syncopated montunos which would give rise to the mambo music genre popularized by Dámaso Pérez Prado and others.

Personnel

gollark: Yes.
gollark: To be honest this way to write octal literals should really be seen as a JS bug. But they can't really change it now.
gollark: Oh yes. That's probably problematic. Guess he didn't notice.
gollark: Through sheer coincidence he didn't run into bugs there.
gollark: It also accidentally makes it octal, too!
