There’s a song called “Samba Pa Ti” by Santana, and I’m not quite sure what kind of music it is. It starts off like a bolero (syncopated on “and 4 and 5…and 8 and 1…”), but about half way through, the percussion changes and it doesn’t sound like bolero anymore.
Is it salsa at that point (doesn’t really sound like it to me)? The title says samba, so maybe it’s samba, but I don’t really have a good grasp of what samba sounds like, so I don’t know. Does anyone else have a clue?

ColdS. That’s funny I have the reverse problem. I’m uncertain of the beginning song genre (bolero is a good guess.) I am sure that at the 2:00 (on my version of the song) mark the song style is Samba – the bass line is classic bum-ba-dum samba rythm.
I guess ballroom dancing *can* help in a salsa forum from time to time =P
