Origins of the term Salsa
Graciela on claves and her brother Machito on maracas; Machito said that salsa was much like what he had been playing from the 1940s. The word Salsa means sauce in the Spanish language. The origin of the connection of this word to a style of music is disputed by various music writers and historians.
