Queen of salsa Celia Cruz was royalty long before the music was even called that. 100% Azucar collects 19 tracks from her '50s and '60s output on the Seeco label. Smoking even at medium tempos, the disc is full of the hot mambo rhythms of the Sonora Matancera band and the full-throttle vocals of "la incomparable Celia." Included are both sides of one of her first singles, "Ritmo, Tambo y Flores"/"Elegua Quiere Tambo," along with other unstoppable body-rockers such as "Oye Mi Rumba" and "Mi Soncito." Informed, fascinating liner notes and reproductions of beautiful vintage album covers complete this prime package. --Rickey WrightCustomer Reviews:

A great first Tito Puente album.......2004-04-10
Smooth latin grooves are guaranteed on every track. Scary tribal rhythms shine through on Dance of the Headhunters. As one of my friends said, if you don't bob your head to Ti Mon Bo, you probably don't have a pulse. Night Ritual, Hong Kong Mambo, and El Cayuco would rank as some of my favorites if I had to choose, but thankfully I don't.
Informative liner notes give a good history lesson about Tito's roots, how he begun, and how he lasted and played amazing music even into his older years. Puente will certainly be remembered for one of the longest lasting, highest quality musicians the world has ever seen.
A great stepping stone for other Puente albums, this will give a brief introduction to many of the styles Puente cultivated over the years. I suggest Mambo Birdland: Dancemania, a live album from the late 1990s, as a wonderful chance to hear Puente and his full orchestra in rare form, playing a live show in the Palladium, decades after his playing originally sparkled there.
A high quality album all around, a great beginning to more Puente albums. Highly recommended to any newcomers to salsa who have interest. As the liner notes proclaim, El Rey esta meurte: long live the King!

Album Description
Salsa is the name given to the dance music which evolved from Cuban roots to be championed by predominantly Puerto Rican musicians in New York in the 1970s. Its brash, bold and brassy sound blends African rhythms and Spanish harmonies, first nurtured in Cuba and then transported to New York by immigrants in the 30s and 40s. Here, the influence of big band jazz shaped its definitive sound, and the big city environment of the Big Apple gave this latin music a much edgier and urban flavour than its country cousin back in the Caribbean! Nascente. 2005.Album Details

A Musical Journey that Embraces Cuba, Colombia, Venezuela, Purteo Rico and Latin New York!Customer Reviews:
Excellent.......2005-08-18
This UK label has great salsa compilations.I also recommend getting "The Beginners guide to Salsa" also on Nascente.(bad choice of title ,there is nothing "beginner" about it)I plan to get every salsa title on Nascente and the defunct UK Charly that I can find.
The UK CD Mastering and pressing of Nascente's CDs is superb.The sound quality is audiophile .Compare the sound to any USA Fania CD and you will be amazed.

Muy bueno (very good).......2004-04-24
The review by Mr. Canestro should be corrected as the country of Grupo Niche is Colombia (not Columbia) so Colombian is the right term; typical from one that thinks America is only USA ignoring it is a much larger continent (and can't spell spanish names right).
"The Best" ?.......2002-09-18
The list of songs will keep you dancing all night. I consider this compilation of songs to be a very good sample of their versatility of Columbian music.
The lead vocal and harmonic background vocals, are in a class of their own, along with an orchestra that kicks, (BIG TIME)!
Although I like this CD very much, I consider their CD "La Danza de la Chancaca" (The Dance of the Brown Sugar) to be their finest work to date! It contains most of these hits plus many more fantastic songs.
Being that the title "The Best" has already been used on the above featured CD, "La Danza de la Chancaca" should have been considered being called Grupo Niche's "COLUMBIAN GOLD".
One will never regret purchasing either of these two fine treasures! Dance-on amigo!
