Beginners Guide To Salsa (2008 Edition) Print E-mail

Beginners Guide To SalsaThe next installment in the Beginners Guide To Salsa series comes in the form of this 2008 issue, and is compiled by DJ Lubi Jovanovic, who certainly knows his stuff when putting a compilation together! The first issue sold in excess of 70,000 copies!!

The first CD, entitled 'Warming Up' kicks things off with the farmyard sounds intro of Willie Chirino's Cha-Cha number "Guantanamera". The cd then moves through a variety of the less frantic salsa sounds including numbers from Rey Ruiz, Eddie Palmieri, Orquesta Broadway, Bobby Matos, and more. Things are wrapped up with DLI's "La La La" - Some great material for the warm-up at a salsa night, or to teach to.

Next up is CD2, entitled 'Getting Hotter', and is a great selection of mid-tempo salsa. Top tracks here include Alfredo De La Fe's "Compay Jose" and "Sentencia" from La Excelencia- two tracks guaranteed to rock!!

Finally, we have CD3, appropriately titled 'Dance Meltdown', and as the name suggests, is a no-holds-barred tirade of good, hard, salsa tunes!!!
Personal favourites from this disc: "Gozando El Guaguanco" by Antonio Chocolate Diaz, and "Salsa Donde Estebas" by Victor Hugo.

Overall, a great compilation for your collection, whoever you are. Perfect for any level of dancer, teacher, or DJ, and at such a great price! Go get it!!
