This book provides the authoritative history of salsa.Salsa is one of the most popular types of music listened to and danced to in the United States. Until now, the single comprehensive chronicle 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 Cesar Miguel Rondon's celebrated El libro de la salsa.Rondon 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. Rondon 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, Rondon 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, Rondon has added a new chapter to bring the story of salsa up to the present.

Crónica de la música del Caribe urbano es el subtítulo de este libro, todo un clásico actualizado para esta edición cuando están a punto de cumplirse 40 años de su publicación original. La salsa, esa música de los barrios latinos de Nueva York, nació en la década de 1950 en los locales donde se reunían los cubanos, los puertorriqueños o los venezolanos emigrados a Estados Unidos. Y siempre fue la voz del barrio, de los amores contrariados, de la vida precaria, de los malandros y los desarraigados, una forma de llevar el Caribe al escenario de la gran ciudad.La calle está durísima, cantaba Joe Cuba, y con esa frase condensó el espíritu de la salsa. Un son para bailar, para evadirse, para unirse a los compatriotas lejos de la tierra natal. Y aquí está su historia, la de la verdadera música popular que no es folclore, sino el sonido de la calle y del pueblo, con el vigor y la fuerza de artistas como Rubén Blades, Celia Cruz, las Estrellas de la Fania, Willie Colón, La Lupe y docenas de grandes personajes más que se analizan y celebran en este libro.
