Salsa Rising: New York Latin Music of the Sixties GenerationIn the 1920s and 30s, musicians from Latin America and the Caribbean were flocking to New York, lured by the burgeoning recording studios and lucrative entertainment venues. In the late 1940s and 50s, the big band mambo dance scene at the famed Palladium Ballroom was the stuff of legend, while modern day music history was being made as the masters of Afro Cuban and jazz idiom conspired to create Cubop, the first incarnation of Latin jazz.

In the 1920s and 30s, musicians from Latin America and the Caribbean were flocking to New York, lured by the burgeoning recording studios and lucrative entertainment venues. In the late 1940s and 50s, the big-band mambo dance scene at the famed Palladium Ballroom was the stuff of legend, while modern-day music history was being made as the masters of Afro-Cuban and jazz idiom conspired to create Cubop, the first incarnation of Latin jazz. Then, in the 1960s, as the Latino population came to exceed a million strong, a new generation of New York Latinos, mostly Puerto Ricans born and raised in the city, went on to create the music that came to be called salsa, which continues to enjoy avid popularity around the world. And now, the children of the mambo and salsa generation are contributing to the making of hip hop and reviving ancestral Afro-Caribbean forms like Cuban rumba, Puerto Rican bomba, and Dominican palo.

Salsa Rising provides the first full-length historical account of Latin Music in this city guided by close critical attention to issues of tradition and experimentation, authenticity and dilution, and the often clashing roles of cultural communities and the commercial recording industry in the shaping of musical practices and tastes. It is a history not only of the music, the changing styles and practices, the innovators, venues and songs, but also of the music as part of the larger social history, ranging from immigration and urban history, to the formation of communities, to issues of colonialism, race and class as they bear on and are revealed by the trajectory of the music. Author Juan Flores brings a wide range of people in the New York Latin music field into his work, including musicians, producers, arrangers, collectors, journalists, and lay and academic scholars, enriching Salsa Rising with a unique level of engagement with and interest in Latin American communities and musicians themselves.

Smells Good, Softens Skin
Scent: Berry Bubbly, Size: 20 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
It smells so good. The pump works just like it should. I haven’t had any issues with getting the soap out. I can tell a difference in my skin. It feels softer and looks good. It seems like it’s going to last for a while, too.

Great lather, great scent, great body wash!
Scent: Raspberry, Size: 20 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
I love trying new body washes. I tend to stay away from Olay because I've always heard Dove is better... I'm a convert now because this OLAY is way better than most of the body washes I've tried recently. With most soaps I use, it takes so much product to get it to lather. Not this soap! I used 2 pumps for my whole shower and it was still lathering!! The scent is strong in the best way! I can actually smell it on my skin hours after my shower!! I felt super clean post shower. No residue or dry skin. Just the right amount of moisture left on my skin. I'm going to try the other scents now!

This body wash lathers well and leaves skin feeling soft. The scent is light and doesn’t linger too long. Packaging is sturdy and easy to handle. Pros: • Good lather • Moisturizing without residue • Really nice fragrance Cons: • Bottle shape can be slippery in the shower Verdict: A definite recommend!! Love this body wash for daily use.

Smells nice
Scent: Berry Bubbly, Size: 20 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
This smells nice and is moisturizing but there really isn't any 'fizz' to it. It just foams up like normal soap. 3 pumps on a loofah is enough for a whole shower really, it's very lasting soap and makes for a nice clean feel. The smell doesn't last long after the shower though. Interesting product but most likely won't be buying again.

Olay Intensive hydrating body wash
Scent: Berry Bubbly, Size: 20 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
I really love this body wash. It is so good for the body. The smell is a sweet odor, but not strong, just right. I saw where this is a limited product. I hope not, because it leaves me feeling like I put lotion all over.
