1	Oye Como Va: The Dance Collection (1982) more music like this by Tito Puente Given Tito Puente's staggeringly prolific output of recordings, obviously no single disc can sum it up, so Concord Picante sensibly calls this compendium a "dance" collection. With the aim to keep the mambos, guajiras and cha chas moving and grooving foremost in mind, there is still a great deal of variety in this CD -- powerhouse big-band sounds, ... see all copies from $8.03! new only from $8.03!
2	The Best of Tito Puente: El Rey del Timbal! (1997) more music like this by Tito Puente Summarizing Tito Puente's numerous accomplishments on a single CD would be impossible. El Rey del Timbal!, a 1997 disc spanning 1949-1987, barely scratches the surface -- but for Puente, a five-CD box set would also only scratch the surface. But this gem-laden collection does illustrate just how remarkably consistent the salsa legend was during ... see all copies from $7.00! new only from $32.98!
3	50 Years of Swing: 50 Great Years & Tracks (1997) more music like this by Tito Puente The concept behind this three-CD set was to pick out some of the highpoints from Tito Puente's half-century career. Unfortunately, the end results are not very well-planned. The music skips around time-wise (instead of being in chronological order), the exact recording dates are not given (just the year), and the full personnel is also absent; ... see all copies from $54.95!
4	The Best of the Concord Years (2000) more music like this by Tito Puente The Best of the Concord Years collects 24 tracks over two discs from the final portion of Latin band leader and percussionist Tito Puente's career, which spanned six decades. During that time, Puente never strayed far from his jazz roots, as demonstrated by the inclusion of compositions by John Coltrane, Horace Silver, Miles Davis, Thelonious Monk ... see all copies from $9.95! new only from $16.79!
5	Puente Caliente (2001) more music like this by Tito Puente Puente Caliente, a two disc set, features Tito Puente's hottest Concord Picante CDs: Un Poco Loco and Sensacion. Disc one includes such favorites as its title track and"Swinging Shepherd Blues (Goes Latin)"; four of his priceless originals ("El Timbalon," "Chang," "Machito Forever," "Alluya"); and a supercharged, swinging version of "Killer Joe." ... see all copies from $7.11! new only from $9.92!
6	Colors of Latin Jazz: Mambo Mania! (2002) more music like this by Various Artists While an individual artist may provide a good introduction to an unfamiliar genre, this approach is rather limited. A lone artist, no matter how talented, can only supply a partial understanding of a style. Another and perhaps more effective method is to listen to a collection like The Colors of Latin Jazz: Mambo Mania!, a collection of 11 mambos ... see all copies from $8.37! new only from $8.37!
