Album Description
Salsa maybe more of a concept than a specific rhythm, but its infectious and vibrant sound has captivated audiences around the world. In Colombia, salsa took hold in the main Atlantic and Pacific coastal cities, where a distinctive style emerged and had a significant impact on the genre as a whole. Within Colombia, salsa is danced in clubs, discos and at carnival - dancing is widespread in a land where the latest salsa hit is heard everywhere, on your way to work, when you do the shopping, and when you go out with your friends. Featuring many of the best-known salsa artists in the country, The Rough Guide To Salsa Colombia is your introduction to this effervescent dance music.

Artists include: The Latin Brothers, Joe Arroyo Y La Verdad, Fruko Y Sus Tesos, Los Orquesta Internacional, Sonora Dinamita, Los Nemus Del Pacifico, Luis Felipe Gonzalez, Gambino Pampini, Los Titanes, Sonora Carruseles, Los Del Caney, Yolanda Rayo and Los Golden Boys

The type of CD that makes you want to move!5
I bought this CD as an introduction to Salsa. I have always loved it, but I didn't know much about the various artists. This is a terrific way to jump right in! There are some infectious songs on here that won't get out of your head...and it's a very good thing! Favorite tracks are 2,3,6, and #7 - the best one!!

I put this one in my CD player a month ago and it is still there. I love song # 2, 3 and 14-but the whole CD is great. Definitely recommend!
