Sometimes selecting a M3 tune is a bit problematic.
It's intended to be a sampler of newly discovered music...or perhaps classic greats...from the 25 nations covered on this blog...with an emphasis on Latin America.
Usually...that means too many choices.

The BBC labelled him as a salsa great. But he was more than that.
According to the NYT obit...Joe combined salsa with cumbia and porro...which it called "Joeson".
