Tito Puente & His Orchestra

Ernest Anthony Puente Jr. (April 20, 1923 – May 31, 2000), commonly known as Tito Puente, was an American musician, songwriter, bandleader, timbalero, and record producer. He composed dance-oriented mambo and Latin jazz music. He was also known as “El Rey de los Timbales,” or “The King of the Timbales.” Puente and his music have appeared in films including The Mambo Kings and Fernando Trueba's Calle 54. He guest-starred on television shows, including Sesame Street and The Simpsons's sixth season finale/season seven premiere two-parter "Who Shot Mr. Burns?" as himself (and one of the suspects in Mr. Burns' attempted murder, only to prove that he didn't do it because he'd rather perform a scathing song about Mr. Burns than shoot him).
