Ten for Thursday: "¡Azúcar!"
By cjcastillo in Digital Babble

It's baaack! Here are then things about me.

This edition features my ten favorite salsa and merengue songs that make me want to get up and dance.


1. La Vida Es Un Carnaval - Celia Cruz

2. La Vaca - Mala Fe

3. El Costo De La Vida- Juan Luis Guerra

4. Guajira Guantanamera - Omara Portuondo

5. El Disc Rayao - Billo's Caracas Boys

6. No Me Ames - Marc Anthony/Jennifer Lopez

7. Como Baila - Grupo Mania

8. Nina Bonita - Grupo Mania

9. Nueva York Pasando Lista - Kinito Mendez

10. Mi Tierra - Gloria Estefan


For those of you who read this list and think the words and names look as familiar as the ingredient list for plutonium, I've added links that will take you to either Amazon.com or another site that has samples of the songs.

If that still doesn't satisify your thirst for knowledge of this genre, I have been preparing a podcast about the origin of salsa and merengue, complete with clips of music. Be patient, it will be here soon.
