There are essentially 3 types of vocalists in salsa---

the " Romantica " ( and this does NOT mean slow ) and the type that tells a story very much like C and W . Plus the hard core .
Here are a couple of the many vocalists, that are noted for the romantic style-- Frankie Ruiz and Willie Crespo -- some of their vocals are very , very fast-- they do not equate speed and romanticism as do we . .

The salsa Dura and Descarga singers, are also in abundance .Too many to name .

There are also singers that are called Soneros-- these are much rarer-- they tend to ad lib ( like Sinatra did ) during the course of the song . One of the best is " Canario "
