Talk:Pérez Prado

Mexican national anthem
Did Perez Prado really try to change Mexico's national anthem? If he did, someone really should add that into the article. 97.97.174.186 (talk) 02:08, 2 September 2008 (UTC)

Two "Prez" Prados?
The late Pittsburgh talk show host Doug Hoerth claimed that when "Prez" Prado was at the peak of his popularity, he made a deal with his brother (or possibly cousin?) that the relative would perform as "Prez Prado" with his own band in Europe while the original Prez Prado would remain in the Western hemisphere. Later on, when his popularity wained, he attempted to undo the agreement, which led to estrangement from the relative. Does anyone know if this is true?76.195.223.86 (talk) 06:20, 28 September 2014 (UTC)
