Cuban Originals by Desi Arnaz - Uhune

ALBUM

This volume of RCA's Cuban Originals series spotlights Desi Arnaz, and includes original recordings of classic songs like "Tico Tico," "Cuban Pete," "Babalu," "You Can in Yucatan," "A Rainy Night in Rio," and "Holiday in Havana," all of which capitalize on Arnaz's charm as a vocalist, and an accessible mix of pop, swing, and Latin/Cuban music.
