Which Juan Luis Guerra songs are salsa?

Que Llueva Café - and they are mostly as good. Arieto is probably your best bet,
since it has several numbers on it, along with a bolero or two. On Bachata Rosa the
one that comes to mind is "Carta de amor", and I think "Razones" is on Ojalá. I
have El Original 4.40, but I haven't really listened to it too much yet <g>. If you
liked "Quisiera", you will like most of the other salsa he has. A lot of the
merengue he has produced is quite approachable as well, not quite so formularistic, I
guess I would describe it.
A question for the group: who plays drums on Ojalá que Llueva Cafe? Is it ChiChi
Peralta perchance?

I always likes "Como Abeja al Panal", which is sort of bolero/salsa

"Ayer" on the Areito album is one of my favorites, pure poetry on top of a
beautiful beat. There's also "Mal de amor", slightly more upbeat. Has
anyone else ever noticed JLG always has at least one song that has the "love
= sickness -> hospital" theme going in his albums? "El Niagara en
Bicileta"... "Mal de amor"... "La Biliburrina"...
There's "Reforestame" on Bachata Rosa, and some more.
But to me, it's JLG's slow jams that then go put the icing on the cake. He's
a genius, as far as I am concerned. Our own Latin Smokey Robinson. :-)
The original poster might also enjoy Chi-Chi Peralta's first album ["Pa'l
otro la'o"], with songs such as "Me enamore" and "Procura". Don't touch the
latest, "De vuelta al Barrio", with a long pole, though, it's mostly a huge
disappointment.
And if soft salsa is called for, you can get all you want from folks such as
Raulin Rosendo (check out a song like "Deseo" or "Solo pienso en ti"), Tito
Nieves or Los Titanes. Damn, do I ever repeat myself... :-)

My favorite on this album was "Señales de humo", which is really more a bolero, but a
lovely one. . . . But this was an excellent introduction to JLG, as every single
(full-length) track is a pick. I'd recommend it highly.
