hey have you see the YouTube salsa bass videos? they are good to understand the complicated latin sound and check the salsa videos of the great voices of the Fania All Stars like Sonora Poncena, Hector Lavoe, Frankie Ruiz, Bobby Valentis the King of salsa bass,etc, etc. cheers saludos amigo

Yes i have checked out some of the videos on youtube, i love that old style salsa, especially Frankie Ruiz, may he rest in peace, one of the best Salsa Bassist out is Ruben Rodriguez, i believe he even plays FODERA BASSES, he has got some nice smooth chops, but then again he has been SALSA playing for a long time. I also listen to BACHATA, like AVENTURA, those are pretty easy BASS lines to learn and catchy.

I'm just a crazy gringo here in Denton, but my band is 2 Puerto Ricans, 1 Venezuelan/Puerto Rican, and me! We play all Latin styles but lean heavily toward rumba/flamenco a la Gypsy Kings and Bebe, plus Pop like Laura Paucini, Shakira, Maná, Cafe Tacuba, Enanitos Verdes, Juiia Venegras, Jarabe de Palo, etc. with a bit of Reguetón, Bob Marley, and Jason Mraz. I love this music!
