Salsa gitane - salsa song with gypsy fiddle

[Lucretia]

I heard the most magnific salsa song yesterday night. It was traditional & experimental salsa mixed with gypsy fiddeling :shock: . A cultural mix that hit me straight into the stomach. I was breathless for a while and then started up a trancelike dance. Never before has a song "turned me on" like that the first time I hear it.

The cultural mix reminded me of Salsa Celtica. But I guess this was a spanish/gypsy variant.

The group is probably called Salsa Gitane. And the song is probably called the same.

Has any one heard about them? Do you now where to find the record?

Nope, but it reminds me of that song from WIllie Colon, "Gitana".

Check it out at amazon.com. They have track samples of pretty much everything, and you can see if it's the one you're looking for.

No there is nothing at Amazone and nothing at Walmart (they have more soundsamples than Amazone). But perhaps I should surf into the Spanish site at Amazone. How will I manage this....... :roll:

Do any one know any more specialized websites in worldmusik?
(I guess world music is the right category - not salsa)

The group is called Orchestra Gitano and the Album Salsa gitana. I find several links about this group. But no "trustable" site to buy it from.
