I grew up listening to this song but it is much older than me. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mardi_Gras_Mambo. Most famous version was recorded in 1954 by the Hawkettes. This tune shows off the lively never dying spirit of New Orleans. The Original uses a saxophone. I am playing a C harp in the key of G. Non-standard progression, but it does use I, IV, and V chords. Recorded at Harlem Blues Lounge in Berwyn IL on 5.28.10. Enjoy. Mambo, Mambo.
