 | El Juicio by Willie Colón
Buy used from: $51.78 Tracks like Aguanile, Timbalero or Sonando despierto makes this a great album. Willie Colon and Hector Lavoe in their finest hour

 | 30 Aniversario Bailando Con El Mundo by El Gran Combo de Puerto Rico
Buy used from: $28.98 El gran combo is like the Rolling Stones of Puerto Rico. This disc has a good (not the best yet) part of their history.
|
 | Top Percussion by Tito Puente
Buy new: $7.99 / Used from: $5.60 Salsa is known around the world thanks to Tito Puente, but he never "did" salsa in reality. This album redefines many concepts, it was quite new and original for its time, and, a must-must have.

 | Latin Soul by Poncho Sanchez
Buy new: $11.98 / Used from: $3.49 Every track here is incredible. Recorded live and with an incredible sound, this is a CD to listen endlessly.
|
 | A Giant Step by Charlie Palmieri
Buy used from: $29.98 Charlie's best album (for me)... the best MUNECA version is here. Don't miss it.
|
 | The Best of The Joe Cuba Sextet by Joe Sextet Cuba
Buy used from: $74.92 There's a lot of great works from Joe Cuba, and this is a very good compilation. Great songs, all of them, but I would include some more.
|
 | Gold by Eddie Palmieri
Buy new: $10.99 / Used from: $8.95 Eddie Palmieri's Gold is amazing, track after track. I could choose a compilation of Eddie for this list, but, believe me, this album has the best Palmieri.
|
 | Across 110th Street by Ruben Blades
Buy used from: $7.97 After "Un gran dia en el barrio" I expected a great disc. I listen to the 2nd SHO discs and thoght they didn't make a better job. Until I heard it twice, and now, I can't live without it's tunes.
|
 | Hacheros Pa' un Palo by La Sonora Ponceña
Buy used from: $14.99 Sonora Poncena is a great band, but for my taste has some great albums and some not-so-great... this is a very good one, a top for me, and don't miss Algo de locura (I didn't find this one on Amazon)
|
 | Salsa Caliente de Nu York! by Ray Barretto
Barretto has been an icon for a lot of people, and I'm on that list. Don't miss this!
