Radio Macondo Podcast

Sun, 9 September 2007

Hot salsa for every salsa-taste, from swingin' dance-floor power packers by Conjunto Colores, El Gran Combo, and Victor Cruz, to smoother, more romantically swingin' tunes from Jose Alberto, Lalo Rodriguez, and Michael Stuart. Then, a sampling of some of the fusion work going on in salsa, with a plena-flamenco fusion from Plena Libre, a conga-salsa-jazz fusion from Descarga Boricua, and a cumbia-salsa-compas fusion from Joe Arroyo. A little Cuban sound lovingly done by Colombian band Orquesta Sublime, then yet another Cuban homage from that classic '75 collaboration of Celia, Johnny, Justo, y Papo. Eddie Palmieri surprises once again, and we finish with a live number from Roberto Roena y su Apollo Sound.

Thank you for your music mix this year, just a little disappointed that there's hasn't been anything of your talent since september.
we really hope you are doing fine ! Have a good break at this time of the year and we hope to hear more of your music in the near future, hopefully with something to end the year dancing.

I've been listening to Salsa, and only Salsa, for the past 25 Years and I can tell you that at Radio Macondo you're hearing the best collection of Salsa ever.

Pitty this podcast stopped last september. The music is just great. Still weekly checking if another podcast has been posted. I hope Dj John has some time soon to restart again.

As a Puerto Rican living in the States, I enjoy your podcasts very much. But I can not find any for this year. Are you still producing them?

Thank you,

Kathy

I'm with Hugo. Your choice of Salsa has always been first class. I've learned a lot from your historical and biographical comments on the songs and artists you have played on your podcast. Come back John you're sorely missed.

Yeah!!!! Macondo is finally back.....but check the rss-feed. This Libsyn-page is not updated yet. Took me a while before I found out, because I always check out this page....not so much the rss-feed.
