  • Excelente adaptación, me encanta esta versión.

  • temon !!!!!

  • I'm a New York born Puerto Rican and learned a BASIC STEP in the early 70's from dancers in the Bronx (El Condado de La Salsa). This BASIC STEP which became what people today call "on 2" is what I call mambo, period. I agree with you that it's also called "salsa" - but if someone asks me what kind of dance is that, I will not answer "Salsa" - if it's a mambo, I'm going to answer "that's a mambo" and if its a cha-cha, I will say "thats a cha-cha." These dances have a specific name.

  • well - You said that. "mambo" as You call it - is salsa danced on2. and no, it's not legitimate - the real mambo is of only one origin - and it's cuban, not PR or NY, and it's older then "palladium days". besides - I saw those "on2 speciallists" dancing to latin jazz music, and this actually never hurts them to call it mambo which is NOT mambo.

  • @slissaur In fact, it very well may be that this is a guaracha -- other comments are welcomed.

  • I call this particular dance song a "mambo" and it should be danced as such. The word "salsa" has become a derivative, for all latin dance music, it seems. I've heard people implying that cha-cha-cha is salsa, merengue is salsa, so on and so forth. During the Palladium Days a mambo was called a mambo, a cha-cha-cha was called just that, a cha-cha-cha. I know all about the dance on 1 & dance on 2. As long as dancers can differentiate the mambo from all the others dances it's all good.

  • salseli - the music itself is salsa. naming it "mambo" would just be incorrect... first the music, then the dance. and they are dancing salsa but on2 (NY style), but going into details - it's not mambo (try wikipedia for more results).

  • tiene mucho sabor esta salsa

  • Dance that MAMBO - still can't figure why they call this dance salsa, when in fact it's really a mambo you're dancing.

  • tremenda salsota carajo ... me encanta esta mucho
