Disk four expands into more modern salsa too, bring in artists like La India, Jose Alberto, Frankie Ruiz, Puerto Rican Power, Andy Montanez and others. The set is complete with a beautifully printed bound 40 page booklet, on heavy glossy stock paper, all within a hard-cover package that would be worthy of bookshelf display. 58 tracks of pure salsa scripture.
