You're like myself in that you like different forms of music...sometimes I need the energy of Metal, or Joe Satriani, or something vicious and nasty sounding like Gary Clark Jr's hollow-body played live (Crossroads, "Bright lights", I wish Guitartricks would cover that song)...his sound is hair raising, and sometimes it's Paco De Lucia, I can always count on Jeff Beck to amaze, Beethoven or Blue Rodeo if I'm laid-back, SRV just because, or Robert Johnson...I can always count on the blues, sometimes it's Hank Williams Sr. Sorry, I'm not exactly sure what you mean by "Salsa"...I should know, but hey, I love Latin American music but am not sure if I want to tackle that classical stuff...Los Lobos is more my speed...I think they're awesome. I was jamming with some dudes that only wanted to play "indie folk", and soft country (nothing wrong with that)...I played lead when I could stay awake...they didn't want to play blues, couldn't get "it", so like Clapton (and others) I moved on down the road. Could you combine Salsa and metal...I don't know...some of Los Lobos stuff is pretty raunchy? (I know..I'm an idiot...I just like cool sounds).
