This was a radio program from the early 1980s hosted by Frank N. Figueroa, who is an author, writer, essayist, former radio disck jockey and even former bandleader, and in it he plays a recording that features the voice of Max Hyman, the owner of the Palladium Ballroom. Hyman describes the nights of operations, the specific night when celebrities made their way there, and, of course, gives his version of how he single handedly went to Cuba and brought the 'Mambo' to the United States...
Enjoy!
