Salsa (music) recommendations

[LaserWolf]

I don't know a whole lot about salsa, but I pick up all the salsa records I can find. Lots of suggestions here, Hector Lavoe, Willie Colon..., are affordable. Under $30.00 even under $15.00. Almost any thing on Fania is going to be a good listen, and have something for the dj set. I recently picked up a whole lot of 80s salsa, much of which is from Miami. Stuff looks cheesy, I expected condensed drums and keyboards instead of horns. Most of what I got was top flight.
