Remember the dance craze, La Chunga, started by this album and the Arthur Murray dance studios? No? It is one of Prado's very best albums, nevertheless. It has everything from Rockambo but with better-paced, more fully developed tunes, and more, much better vocals. Despite the incidental new-dance-craze trappings, it really is his peak album, but one too often overlooked. And poor Arthur Murray. Inventing a new dance (the liners claim it's based on a game Prado remembered from childhood in Cuba) is presumptuous, but the strength of the music makes the attempt more than welcome.
