## Caption

When 5x Grammy winner #TitoPuente came through for our popular “Mambo Shows,” you knew you’d better be ready to move! As bandleader and drummer, he showcased Latin dance bands alongside artists like Mongo Santamaría and the Mambo Aces.

On this particular night, he played alongside #Cándido, an iconic percussionist in his own right, known for bridging Cuban traditions with jazz improvisation and helping bring Afro-Cuban rhythms into mainstream American music. 🎶

Join us in saluting #HispanicHeritageMonth with this clip from the #ApolloArchvies!
