Just in time for Valentine's Day, Sony Latin delivers its
Canciones de Amor series. The salsa entry, compiled from its and BMG's catalogs is big on superstars. Highlights here include
Willie Colon's twin trombone merengue hit "Carmelina," the dressed-up salsa version of
Jerry Rivera's soulful "Quiero," La India's tropical groover "Seduceme," and the smooth salsa 'n' strings of
Luis Enrique's "No Te Quites La Ropa." This set is big on rhythm and romance as well as the hits of yesteryear. Given the super low price point, this is a bargain. ~ Thom Jurek
