Swing them hips, people! Salsa. Colombia. You do the math. You can play it all, but check out the following for extra special goodness:

2. Soaring male tenor, horns, piano, percussion.
3. Big and brassy w/nice energy & good male vocals.
5. Fast percussion, catchy melody. Fun.
6. Horns, vocals, and percussion blend in a happy wiggle.
7. A sharp arrangement w/a modern sound and catchy.
10. Fun & joyful w/a big sound.
12. Big horns & percussion backing strong vocals.
14. Lounge salsa w/a smooth, slick feeling.
15. Live track w/a big female voice & hot band.
16. Wacky kitsch. Uptempo & just plain weird.
