What?!
You're not sure which band this is?!! For the uncertain, here's more
details, directions, and some real-audio clips. http://salsaboston.com/sonora_carruseles/
Many people
have indicated that they don't know what band this is, which is understandable
since I don't know many of them by name either. But let me assure you,
you've heard their music MANY times in all the good Salsa hangouts in
Boston! Fast snappy Colombian style, with Kumbia influence. If
you're uncertain check out the audio clips, you'll recognize them right
away.
