Enjoy this easy Rumba to many dances, including: Besame Mucho (any),
Sway, Rhythm of the Rain, Save the Last Dance for Me, or any others of
course that you like!

I chose the Trini Lopez “The Album Version” over all of his and others – it is perkier,
a touch quicker without losing the attitude of the song or the dance :-)
