Bad links? No images? click: HERE

We are happy to offer the new digitally remastered reissues from the  
classic salsa label, Fania. Brought to you by Emusica, which, over  
time, will be reissuing the entire catalog with improved sound and  
superb liner notes too - some of which are written by Descarga.com's  
own virtually resident scholar, John Child. Many of these new  
reissues have been remastered by Jon Fausty or Bob Katz, so even if  
you already own the older CD version you might want to consider  
upgrading to the new improved edition. They're even less expensive  
than the originals were! Good news all around. Highly Recommended. (BP)

FANIA in transition... The recent acquisition of the Fania related  
labels (Fania, Alegre, Cotique, Vaya, Tico, Inca, Barbaro etc.) will  
mean that this large, historically significant, catalog of titles may  
be in scarce supply until they are reissued. They are going fast. We  
strongly urge those of you who are considering any of the following  
titles to place your order while supplies last. Click below for a
