I was somewhat misled by the "fake news" of Wikipedia this time last year, when I inadvertently paid tribute to a "centenarian" - when, in fact today is the 100th anniversary of the ebullient Pérez Prado, "The Mambo King"...
Regardless of such embarrassing errors - here is the man himself, in fine form this Tacky Music Monday, to cheer us up as we traverse the slush on our way to work...
Have a Mambo week, dear reader!
Dámaso Pérez Prado (11th December 1917 – 14th September 1989)
His music is just fab. It always gets me going.
