Bit Hits By Prado

RCA Victor LSP-2104
1960

From the back cover: Prado has always taken full advantage of the most advanced recording techniques; this has been an important factor in giving his discs their special identifying stamp. Now that stereophonic recording has opened up still greater frontiers, Prado has brought his greatest hits of the past ten years up-to-date in this album, re-recording them in full width and depth. – Watson Wylie

From Billboard - August 1, 1960: This album contain many of Perez Prado's biggest single hits. Sides include "Cherry Pink," "Mambo Jambo," "In A Little Spanish Town" and "Patricia." Good cover and strong material make this look like a strong seller.
