Anything from Michel Camilo will fill your latin need. Anthony Jackson is on most of them and the albums he isn't on have Lincoln Goines and John Patitucci. How could you go wrong?!

Don't forget Descarga Boricua...

BTW, I hope TB's very own Ruben Rodriguez is able to reply - he's one of the baaaadest and works with the most well known artists today....

Irakere, Gonzalo Rubalcaba, Los Van Van, but out of all of these, Irakere is KING!!!!! Jesus "Chucho" Valdes is the band leader/arranger/pianist/writer, it is very inspiring. If you can check out and album called "Misa Negra."

Anything by The Carribean Jazz Project! Willie Colon, El Gran Combo.............

Bassist Jimmy Haslip has a solo cd called Red Heat that you really need to check out. There's some deep latin grooves on that one!

Manny Patiño is amazing. Oh and he's my guitar teacher's friend and I've been to one of his clinics He has a book out, too, called Afro-Cuban Bass Grooves, based on the rhythms with the clave, if you want to check that out.

Clicky

The last posters have covered most of the awesome old-school type bands, ones that have the charanga flute, etc...Los Van Van, Grupo Irakere...etc...

for newer stuff, I like Lefty Perez and Andy Montanez...very poppy salsa, it still has that great salsa bass rythem..but the music is very modern and "pastuerized"

I think Poncho Sanchez is really one of my favorite salsa artists out there.

For old school stuff, Tito Puente rocks!

The drummer is Horacio "El Negro" Hernandez and I agree, he is most definitely wonderful!

We New Yorkers on the Latin scene (at least my generation) listened to the big bands of Machito, Tito Puente & Tito Rodriguez, (Bobby Rodriguez played and recorded w/ all of them) the Cuban Descargas on Panart records feat. Cachao & Julio Gutierrez & smaller ensembles like Eddie Palmieri's La Perfecta and a few others that I can't remember right now .... too early yet! There's also "The Fania All Stars" and their star bassists, Bobby Valentin & Sal Cuevas, the latter, introduced R&B and Funk elements to Latin bass playing. Anything on Fania records before 1983, will most likely feature Sal on bass, for example:
Willie Colon
Ray Barretto
Fania All Stars

and on & on ....

Easy,
RR

P.S. NJL good looking out!
