Carlos "Charlie" Arroyo is the man shown dancing in this video (opening scene in dance hall) He is a true testament to the Palladium era. He is 82 and continues to dance.
I learn how to dance as a child, there was an after hour party and spin the bottle remember that LOL
Gracias Salsa3914 for sharing the beauty of our culture...
She is still alive but living with a different name which I won't disclose. She is living in Florida and still dances occassionally with her two granddaughters. :) I love her she's really awesome .
"Baila con Swing Sabroso" with "Ray Rodriguez y Swing Sabroso". Ray Rodriguez is the saxophone player. Great song!
This is fantastic
El Templo del Mambo, Latin Jazz!!!!!!!
Thank you Salsa3914!
wow those people back then knew how to dance so well
@Salsa3914 They call him Cuban pete but he is Puerto Rican. Cause people at that time knew the origins of the music is from Cuba. As you know before the revolution americans visit cuba in throngs for holidays and they saw the Cabaret and the Mambo.
It's from the half hour show "The Golden Age of Dance", available at UA-cam
Es la Epoca de Oro!!!!!,,,,,,,Tito Rodriguez, Tito Puente, Machito !!!!!!
Wow! Insuperable! The music, the style to dance , OMG! The 80s were great also , I seriously think the music is not evolving right now with regueton, and it doesn’t require no effort to dance
And they further evolved in NYC and the Salsa from NYC has a great influence from Jazz. Also the arrangements, instruments and speed of NYC Salsa are different.
Nice clip of Andrew Jerrick starts around 1:22. He is missed by many. Andy passed in October of 2008.
Tito Rodriguez was getting down!! He too was a fantastic dancer!!!!!
Marilyn Winters is my step grandmother no lie!
Mambo is Cuban, was ONE of the influences for the smoother NYRican 'Salsa' sound (Mambo is more staccato), along with jazz, which is inherently 'Gringo'. And of course all of these pay homage to the African influence in music around the world.
Jazz is not inherently gringo. Jazz is Black American Music.
... also, the term "Mambo Craze" doesn't say anything about where and how it all began, it signifies a period of international popularity for Mambo music and dance. You are of course correct about Orestes, Cachao and Perez Prado.
nice
wow look at cuban pete, his style
💋💋💋💋
Everything is true except that it was in the 60s America looked to Brasil ( bossa nova and samba )and to rock and roll (Beatles) at the same time Mambo was succeded by boogaloo and ja la jala .sextets like joe cuba , combos like Cortijo y su combo were the an integral Bridge to Salsa along with Willie Colon.
Mario Bauza , Chico O farril, Tito Puente always played playng Mambo until the end.
SUPER

what is the name of the song on the first cha cha cha?
Johnny Rumba
Hi, what is the song at 5:30?
This was dancing not what they do now.
@Salsa3914 Its easy cause nuyorican dance off beat. Check out article cause they dance on the slap of the tumbao (2nd) instead of the clave. So they are right on the first step then make mistakes throughout.
Salsa is from Son, the code is in the clave 3-2 and 2-3. Bomba and Plena is from Puerto Rico and doesnt have the feel of the Son, and it cant evolve. Just like Reggaeton the Puerto Ricon steal and packaged it (cause they ARE american colony). Just because the embargo was around.
This music that was enjoyed by many, there is no need for put downs, who came first or who did it better. We know that the music is the the combination of west Africa, jazz, and Spaniard. I hate people who try to say we are better than them, or we had the better beat or dance, its what music makes you feel to do. There's no put down, here. People just love to try and separate.
Puerto Ricans and other non-Cubans have contributed to Afro Cuban music since day one. The recordings, going back to the 1920s, demonstrate this.
Bomba AND Plena HAVE evolved musically throughout the 20th century. You can't talk about this music if you're ignorant. You don't deliver babies do you?
@@richieblondet2310 ou're 10 years too fucking late noob to enter this discussion. Go troll somewhere else.
In 10 years there are barely new Bomba or Plena shit came out... it is all electric crap. Even your so-call PR biggest hit "Despa-shit-to" is an old song had to be remade into Reggaeton cause the original rhythm couldn't catch it. Cuban Son moved on and the world is experiencing Timba and amazing bands all throughout, copied by bands in other Latin American countries and so forth.
Since this comment I've produced latin club bands and produced a joint international Latin Jazz Orchestra, and recently did a classical Asian symphonic importing Cuban singers.
To you noobs mambo is danced contratiempo (lol). Go play an ukulele or hit a cowbell maybe you'll learn a thing or two about music.
@@AfroMalaya Nah you're just a clown on the internet hiding behind a fake name. You haven't done jack shit except talk out of your ass. If I'M a newbie then you're a tadpole fungi. You should really stop expressing yourself about any music. You are uninformed. And a putz. Thanks.
@rfmullig Was this music,played in Cuba? The answere is,it wasn't. Machito,Puente and Tito Rodriguez created this music.However,with their own styles,The black and white clip,was a movies that the Band was Tito Rodriguez Conjunto! Mario Bauza call it,Mambo Jazz!Which it hasn't any similarity to Prado's music.This music is pure Nuyorkina,see Noro,Socarra,Iznaga,Augusto Coen.The past cannot be undone! The dressing,dancing,the drugs,all nyc,Cuba is great,NYC is greater!
@locinty..Uhh ..WRONG Arsenio Rodriguez created the mambo.
This music was not only played in Cuba it was invented in Cuba. Machito, TP & TRod were playing Afro Cuban music ...in New York. It's the same music. It has its local characteristic that distinguishes it from the way the music is played in Cuba. Just as Colombian Salsa sounds different from the Salsa from Puerto Rico. But they're all playing the same music. They're all laying down the same rhythms. It's all Afro-Cuban music.
this for salsa 3914. & rfmullig these 2 young bloods that never live those times.&are talking ruberish because you are assuming & reading these salsa & dance articles in the internet,i guest that the cubans invented the wheel also right & they were the frst ones to go to the moon because they tought that it was made out of cheese,i read this in the internet.la raza should never be divided or bother with these trivial thing.puerto ricans have always open their door to all of our latinos brothers
yeah, screw how they DANCED, how they DRESSED is the most important thing of all, as this video makes very very clear. Dress to impress or dress to de-stress? you choose.
Seems like an over simplified and debatable statement. Sure cuban music is a major influence, but so is american jazz.. The dancing is influenced greatly by swing, and the forward-backward break steps came from Cuban Pete's background in boxing. Most people seem to consider the dance and music more as Nyourican.
Actually, the forward-backward break steps came from a variation used in Cuban Son dancing.
There is very little of Cuban Pete's overly theatrical style in the way people danced Mambo during that era. The dance motion is essentially from Afro-Cuban dance styles ie "Guaracha" & "Son Montuno.
If you go back far enough (1920s) Swing dancing goes back to Harlem. Itself impacted by the Cuban Son dancing of the era. Despite the notion that it is "Nuyorican" the fact is that "Nuyorican" flavor is dipped in an Afro Cuban model.
Fascinating, where can I read about Cuban Pete's boxing influence?
The PR's didnt steal anything - they put their flavor in it. With your logic, then the Beatles are complete frauds because they stole Rock N roll from early rythum and blues. Salsa maybe from Son but the flavor, speed, arrangements and instruments are uniquely NYC. And at the end of the day its what makes you get up and dance.
One of the beauties in Cuban Mambo and Rumba is the pause! Quick, quick,slow ! Without the slow, Salsa male dancers usually just keep moving the feet without the hesitation ! To a Latin dancer like me, that is not dancing ! The Salsa male dancer is so busy doing the arm twisting,over head or not, always suggested that the dancer should be dancing upside-down instead ! To me, The Salsa dancers are bad dancers ! This all started when The Puerto Ricans stole the Mambo, but not the counting system !
You're a great comedian.
Well, maybe it's just as correct to say the rythms are african with cuban names.
However, I find it difficult to dance cross body style to cuban music, it doesn't feel right. So saying there's only a slight Nyourican characteristics doesn't seem right to me.
The rhythms were developed by Africans in Cuba. Therefore making them neoAfrican rhythms or AFRO-CUBAN.
what is the name of the song on the first cha cha cha?
