Good but not as good as his two earlier recordings

Review Score: (4/10)
Contra la corriente is a good CD but most of the songs are too slow and lacking the salsa flavor of his two earlier recording "Todo a su tiempo" "A Otra Nota". If you are looking for Salsa for dancing from the heart go with "Todo a su tiempo" if you are a fan of ballads and are not into salsa dancing then "contra la corriente" may be a better choice for you.
