I'm really glad to see this original on YouTube; up till recently it's just been this clip as it appeared in a later PBS special.
In 1954 there was a craze for the Mambo in the USA, which inspired a bunch of novelty songs like this one. I was very surprised to discover that this had been a hit in Italy too, recorded in both English and - appropriately - Italian.
Im trying to find this so i can get it on my Ipod . anyone know where i can get it ? give me a link :D ?

Hey Mambo, try an enchilada- because nothing says Italy like a Cuban dance with Mexican food.

excellente vidéo, merci de ce beau partage. La chanson a été reprise par Dany Brillant qui l'a un peu remise au goût du jour. Amicalement Aline
