I'm not really up to speed on the latest out there, but I love Elvis Crespo. Marc Anthony also has some good stuff out. I have a lot of Salsa mix CDs at home. I'll try to look at some of the artist names tonight.

I like listening to radio stations at music.aol.com - I just checked and there is a salsa station under latino music. While each song plays, you can read off to the side to see the title, artist and album. Hope that helps :)

You need a user name for aol but it was always free to get the name. I have never subscribed to them but have had my screename for years. It looks to be the same now. You click on the get the free messeneger (AIM) or free aol mail and then register. That user name is what you then use to login and listen to radio, watch videos, etc. Good luck :)
