Résumé :
"... The collection that you hold in your hands spans the development of Afro-Caribbean music (roughly) from 1960 to the end of the 20th century. If you are not yet familiar with the majority of these recordings, proceed with caution. The intensity of these sounds is likely to take your breath away - and seriously challenge your views on what popular music is all about (if there are any classical music aficionados out there, I propose that La Sonora Poncena's arrangements evoke the orchestral coloring of Maurice Ravel; and that the songs of Rubén Blades suggest the romantic poetry of Franz Schubert). A superficial listener would tell you that this is happy music, that it puts you in a good mood. I agree. If nothing else makes you dance, this stuff will. But salsa is so much more than that..."
