Ooh, 95-year old Omara Portuondo recorded Quizás, quizás, quizás with Nathy Apparently, Nathy Peluso recorded the song before (in English), very early in her career

And actress Isabella Merced has recorded a salsa cover of one of her songs with Tony Succar

Nathy Peluso has recorded another nice bolero, in duo with Mon Laferte I gave a quick listen to some songs from Mon Laferte's last album (last year), there's some really good stuff Another beautiful bolero, Pornocracía Maybe we should be looking for a bolero revival rather than a salsa...

Not sure that helps you, but I'd describe "on 3" as the "a tiempo" sibling of son timing. And that as such, "on 3" is a bit of a misnomer because the emphasis isn't on the break step (3, 7) but on the third step of each triple (1 and 5). The gentleman in red in this video from that salsa...

Just ran across this on youtube (in pretty poor quality): So the güiro is a changüí instrument?

On this undead website salsa-merengue.co.uk, I ran across this article detailing a son montuno dance rhythm: https://www.salsa-merengue.co.uk/VidTutor/rhythm/son_phrasing_part_three.html I had never heard of this before. Do any of you happen to know of some references for this adaptation of...

Joan Soriano - Lo que se da no se quita (1997 per youtube metadata)

That kinda sounds like they want to facilitate leaving together (unless the orgy starts on the dance floor)

Thank you so much for checking it out and reporting back!

Personally, I feel clave much more than the tumbao, tumbao is largely flat to me. If I practice without music, I'm almost always vocalising clave.

This young mambo teacher Diego Rivera (think he's out of Empire?) claims that mambo era dancing was "in clave" proper, stepping 2 3 5 6 6& 8. I'm sure he's just regurgitating what he's been told, judging by his very vague and dubious music history. But interesting nevertheless.

Worth listening to just to hear his voice, but the content is worth it too Some topics - the songs Bruca maniguá and Como traigo la yuca / La yuca de Catalina (a lot of laughter for the latter, didn't understand everything) - the meaning and history of the term "mambo" - planning a tour of his...

I like the organ solo

Proof that you can both 1-2-chachacha and chacha-1-2-3 (and you can see the roots of pachanga, too)

I guess you can keep your EUR 3.50 water bottle and refill it at the bathroom tap?

This touches on something I noticed recently. I deduce from this description that the instructor was aligning the basic to clave, regardless of musical 1 vs 5. So the lead steps left-right-left on the 2-side, right-left-right on the 3-side -- if the song is in 2-3 clave that would be standard...

From the website, I'd have thought Salsarave is organized by videographers to assemble videographers
