Salsa is one of the most popular types of music listened to and danced to in the United States. Until now, the single comprehensive history of the music--and the industry that grew up around it, including musicians, performances, styles, movements, and production--was available only in Spanish. This lively translation provides for English-reading and music-loving fans the chance to enjoy CAAEAaAA[A[aA--AAAAEA[a--AAaAA(c)sar Miguel RondAAEAaAA[A[aA--AAAAEA[a--AAaAA3n's celebrated El libro de la salsa.RondAAEAaAA[A[aA--AAAAEA[a--AAaAA3n tells the engaging story of salsa's roots in Puerto Rico, Cuba, Colombia, the Dominican Republic, and Venezuela, and of its emergence and development in the 1960s as a distinct musical movement in New York. RondAAEAaAA[A[aA--AAAAEA[a--AAaAA3n presents salsa as a truly pan-Caribbean phenomenon, emerging in the migrations and interactions, the celebrations and conflicts that marked the region. Although salsa is rooted in urban culture, RondAAEAaAA[A[aA--AAAAEA[a--AAaAA3n explains, it is also a commercial product produced and shaped by professional musicians, record producers, and the music industry. For this first English-language edition, RondAAEAaAA[A[aA--AAAAEA[a--AAaAA3n has added a new chapter to bring the story of salsa up to the present.
Along with insightful analyses of styles, music, movements, performances, production and marketing, ["The Book of Salsa"] offers detailed coverage of such highly influential talents as Willie Colon, Eddie Palmieri and Ray Barretto. The concluding 'Basic Discography' serves as a great collecting guide.--"Publishers Weekly"
