Advantages: Nothing
Disadvantages: Nothing

...Talking about Damaso Perez Prado is talking abot one of the best musician of the fifties who makes popular the Mambo with his Orquestra specially in Latin America with "Mambo Number 5", "Mamno Number 8", "Mambo del Ruletero", "Mambo Universitario", "Lupita" for example having a dance music as same as Huahuanco (another Cubean musical rate). At that years, my parents when they were singles dance Perez Prado Music in the parties as for example in Carnival days in February) for example. Now I heard this music 50 years after and I like this songs because some Mambos seems as a Huahuanco could be as "Que rico mambo" or some Mambos as "Mambo in Sax" seems as Jazz music. -------------- His music's characteristic is that most of his music are instrumental with a Chorus for example in "Que rico mambo" says "Mambo, que rico mambo, mambo que...

Advantages: Perez Prado
Disadvantages: Nothing

...Talking about Damaso Perez Prado's music is talking about Mambo music in the fifties like "Que rico Mambo" and "Mambo number 8" that it is a Clasic theme, with good music that it characteric is the Perez Prado's shout "Ah uh", in the music at the final of the compass or a beging of the compass in the whole of its theme.

Advantages: Combination of styles, many great tracks, simple but brilliant
Disadvantages: Some not too good songs, too short

Although one of these tracks is still my favourite from the CD, most of the songs on here are outstanding.

The lyrics (written, like most of their songs, by The White Stripes themselves) are silly but fun. "You're pretty good looking for a girl but your back is so broken, and this feelin's still gonna linger on until the year 2525 now." Hello Operator is another strong track, with awesome guitar work from Jack, okay drumming from Meg, and a harmonica solo from John Szymanski). The lyrics are once again pretty strange, but the music is so good that you won't care... Read review
