El cantante de los cantantes, el rey de la puntualidad, don't get much better than Hector Lavoe. pretty much everyone of his songs es una plena if you know what I mean.

recuerdos La salsa vieja, los "duros" como Willy y Héctor Lavoe me recuerdan a mi hermano Manolo con sus discos y sus amigos cantando sentados en los andenenes de nuestro barrio. I agree Boricua Morena. Arroyo is one of them that still have a great sound.

Cierto Angel Gabriel, a Héctor lo llamaban el rey...pero mira, de la impuntualidad. Me contaron en Puerto Rico que el hombre llegaba tarde y a veces estaba con mucho droga encima pero le perdonaban todo.

Do you like also Willy Colón and Ruben Blades? Oh, guys..that's salsa music.

I do dance salsa as a well caleña, but really I do prefer to sing and listening. But my favorites are "musica para planchar" from 80's some of that music(para planchar-I mean sof music and romantic)were replayed to salsa music like " Tú me quemas"... or "de punta a Punta"

Màs fe, màs abrazos, màs besos, màs disculpas, màs visitas a nuestros amigos antiguos nos haràn màs plenos cada vez.

SALSA ROCKS!! Well guys I absolutely love guateque, I love old salsa and I hate the new romantic salsa with those young good looking guys as singers the only good thing about them is their looks because their music stinks!

I do like romantic salsa but the ones that we used to listen back in the days! say late 80s early 90s remember willie Gonzales? Lalo Rodriguez? Eddie Santiago? Gilberto santarrosa? Nino sigarra? En tre otros! That’s the type of romantic salsa that i like!

But i also love guateque music and my favourite singers are angel canales, ruben blades with songs like pedro navaja and plastico!

I also like the fania all stars I’ve been to many salsa concerts and some of my favourite were pete el conde Rodriguez back in the early 90s in la feria de cali and the lebron brothers, el gran combo, la fania, el conjunto clasico with songs like señora ley, raphy levitt y la selecta, willie colon, I also love ray barreto, richie ray y boby cruz, la conspiracion perfercta with songs like Magdalena, boby valentin with la boda de ella or the party time lover, cheo Feliciano and who can forget ismael rivera and ismael Miranda, johnny Pacheco, larry Harlow? I also love los niche their music back in the 80s was amazing! and many others! I could talk about salsa all night long!

ADELA i'm salsa crazy! a song that i love and that brings me many memories everytime i hear it is "siempre alegre" de raphy levitt they used to play it on the funerals.. in my neighbourhood everytime a member of the gang was killed all his friends would play him that song before taking their guns out to make shots in his name this song became a legend everywhere in cali it used to go like this.. "vive la vida mira que se va y no vuelve!" that's my motto too

Adela, el rey de la puntualidad is the name of one of his songs. Your right the song makes fun of the fact that the man was never on time to his concerts. When I was un pelaito, Lavoe use to come to panama for carnaval.
Que recuerdos, Lavoe use to get on a float and play "la murga", thats when carnaval en panama was great!! now a days its not the same.

utopiacowboy says on Jan 24, 2005, 18:07:

Ruben Blades, now you're talking, Adela! Correct me if I'm wrong but I get the impression that salsa and merengue music is not as popular in Colombia as say, vallenato? It seems to be increasing in popularity here in San Antonio.

Disclaimer: any comment I make is inane and is not to be taken seriously, and is so patently ridiculous that no one should take it seriously, even as an insult.

Out of the top of my head, classic albums from NY early '70

Lebron Brothers: Asunto de familia
Joe Bataan: Mr New York and the East Side Kids
Tito Punete: Para los rumberos
Ray Barretto: Hard Hands

Is there anybody who'd be willing to help me out with panameniam tipica from way back? I only could find 4/5 second hand records in a thrift store and nothing seems to be reissued on CD in Panama.

SALSA Unfortunately el valle del cauca has been swamped by vallenato, reggaeton, and cumbia. The reality is like what Hecot Lavoe once said, if you can make it in Cali as a salsero, you can make it anywhere. I hate to say this but it seems like Colombians appreciate salsa more than the Boriquas do and its their music.
Los Hermanos Lebron, Gran Combo, Bobby Valentin, Willy Rosario, Angel Canales, Andy Montañez, La Mulenze, Conjunto Chaney, Pedro Conga, Rey Reyes, Sonora Ponceña, Oscar De Leon, Ralphy Leavitt y la Selecta, Paquito Guzman, Costa Brava, Conjunto Clasico, Choco Orta, Mariano Civico, Luisito Carrion, Jose Bello, Henry Fiol, Ernie's Conspiracy, Son Boricua, Alex De Castro, Mario Ortiz, Cano Estremera.....FANIA ALL-STARS

Oh yeah Grupo Gale and Grupo Niche de Colombia
