Cuban Bandleader, who Reached the Height of his Formidable Powers During the Late 1940s and 50s. By Reinventing the Traditional Cuban Son, Arsenio Gave Birth to a Thoroughly Rhythmic Dance Music, the Precursor to Salsa. This CD Contains 24 of his Greatest Hits. Arsenio Rodriguez, One of the Most Important Figures in the History of Cuban Music, was a Prolific Composer (He Penned Close to 200 Songs), Tresero, Percussionist, and Bandleader Whose Innovations Changed the Face of Latin Dance Music and Paved the Way for What Would Eventually Become Known as Salsa. He is Considered the Father of the Conjunto, an Instrumental Format that was Revolutionary for Its Time Because it Introduced the Conga Drum, which Had Previously Been Considered Taboo Because of Its African Origin.
