PREZ PRADO WNEW TV 5 DECEMBER 31, 1966

New Years Eve December 31, 1966, WNEW TV 5 had a special broadcast of 8 big bands. This video has the sound track on a reel of Scotch 202 tape recorded on my old Kalimar 1600 recorder from an RCA console TV/FM/Phono. The sound is mono since TV sound back then was only mono. This video is of the Cuban band leader Prez Prado.

Prado is often remembered for his signature grunt, "Ugh!" According to Wylie Watson, "[He] is [actually] saying, 'Dilo!'-a Spanish word meaning 'Say it!' or, in the context in which Prado uses it, 'Give out!'"
