cumbia is great dance music but back when I was listening to it a lot I never knew the names of the artists - it was more a "this is playing, let's dance" thing.

Thank you bobby. I should have typed in a search. Anyway this is my way of introducing myself to the forum. My first post is not very good though, i.e... mispellings and grammatical errors. ha.

That cumbia thread is really like the blind men leading the elephant.

it's one of those 'know it when i see it' genres for me, when a song is on I turn to my wife and say "this is cumbia right?" and she says "yes" and I have no idea how I know.
