Since we have started a new routine based on Tito Puete’s Cuban Nightmare song, I decided to post a few videos of the late Tito Puente showcasing some of his live performances with his orchestra. It goes without saying he makes Puerto Rico extremely proud.
This is from a tribute show to Hernandez that El Banco Popular sponsored in 1965. Tito Puente (in the back) is playing the famous “El Cumbanchero” song.
Here is the famous Sheila with Tito.
A personal favorite (for loving cha-cha). Here he is with his band at a Club in New York City with a very chill cha-cha song (guajira).
And a fun favorite, Tito Puente on Sesame Street. Who thought Muppets couldn’t dance?
Well, after getting great feedback from all of you, here it is - a more complicated salsa pattern. It is a very long pattern, so take it in strides and small bites. We have named the individual moves to help you piece the entire salsa combination together. Now, because it is Valentine’s Day (soon) - you can have something to practice with that special someone .Enjoy and if you have questions, please ask it at our forums http://www.addicted2salsa.com/forums/ !
Well, in this episode of addicted2salsa we take a further look some old salsa classics thanks to Karlos (aka ‘Z’). We provide a little more jazzy selection for your enjoyment, so you can discover a variety of different salsa artists and styles. You might not like all the songs, but hopefully you’ll find some treasures that will make you want to get to know a specific artist a little deeper.
