Band Box Boogie is the fifth solo album by Rick Vito, released in 2003. With a focus on mambo music, it drew particular praise from Mick Fleetwood.
The song Last Chance to Mambo appeared in an earlier form as Last Chance to Rock on demos recorded by Vito with Fleetwood Mac. The song Hungry Man was co-composed by Andy Sylvester who had played bass in the original line-up of Chicken Shack along with a pre-Mac Christine McVie.
