Insert with Spanish/English liner notes by Pablo "Bongohead" Yglesias Format and selection designed for DJs, collectors and general public. Pablo Yglesias -aka DJ Bongohead- compiles to Grosso Recordings an amazing serie with classics tunes from Caribbean music that became great successes of "Salsa". "This is the second volume in our series on the roots of salsa...The main criterion was to pick tracks that sounded adequate for today's DJs to play at a gig, or were sufficiently interesting (or enough of a surprise to fans of the later version) to merit inclusion. The other measuring stick was that they needed to come from the old-school, before the more modern era (from 1962 on) and all of its recording innovations and marketing strategies...for now, listen to these dozen gems and then go back to their more familiar cousins from recent times and compare and contrast, and we're sure you'll be enlightened and entertained."
