Perez Prado ‎- Escandalo 1972 (UniFunk)

Label : UniFunk

Value :

Known as Pantaleon Perez Prado, was the younger brother of the famous King of Mambo. Pantaleon, who came to Europe in the 1950s, recorded several albums with Unifunk. A powerful Big Funk Band sound featuring: Tullio De Piscopo, Mario Rusca, Giancarlo Barigozzi, Pino Prestipino and others. Escandalo!, as Perez Prado states in the brief sleeve note, is named after a new rhythm created by himself. A rhythm you can dance to in freedom, without specific steps. In spite of this naive launching, the opening track Chicago Banana is a declaration of intent, with its Sly Stone-esque groove. 9 out of 12 tracks are originals credited to composers of the Unifunk circle, but the track list is careful to preserve Prados well-established Latin appeal, by including three standards such as Brazil, El Manisero and Tequila.

Perez Prado & Don Alfio ‎- Love Child 1973 (UniFunk)


Label : UniFunk

Value :

Bassist, percussionist and arranger Pantaleón Perez Prado (1928-83) the younger brother of the famous Dámaso Perez Prado (King of Mambo) arrived in Europe in the 1950s, whereupon he set about pursuing his musical career in mambo. In the early 1970s, Pantaleón settled in Milan where he recorded two LPs, Escandalo! (1972) and Perez Prado - Don Alfio (1973), both featuring a powerful Big Funk Band sound and both still considered to be two incredible musical gems. After the sunset of mambo fever, Pantaleón was able to reveal a funky attitude that comes out in these amazing recordings.
