Pearly Queen is a Cuban rock band from Miami that gained immense popularity in the early to mid-1970s within the vibrant Miami music scene. The band caught the attention of Carlos Andarra, the nephew of the Panamanian President, who licensed their debut album, leading them to become the most popular Latin rock band in Panama. The lineup included Alberto Arguelles on guitar, Paco Rodriguez on electric bass, Kenny Combs on organ and trombone, Carlos Salazarte on percussion, Raly Guanche on drums, and lead singer Iggy Gelabert, with Rudy Perez joining later. Pearly Queen's greatest success came from the infectious single "Quit Jivin'," which was released shortly after their debut album but was not included on it, becoming an essential staple of the rare funk scene worldwide.
