   There  are  some things born from greed, hatred, and
delusion,  such  things  are to be avoided by Buddhists
since they promote dukkha for oneself and others.

   If  one  can't differentiate between a porn film and
Bambi,   he  has  a  serious  problem.  There  is  good
bibliography  on music if you are interested in knowing
more about it.

   Then about salsa:

           The  1980s was a time of diversification, as
        popular  salsa  evolved  into  sweet and smooth
        salsa  romantica,  with lyrics dwelling on love
        and  romance,  and  its  more  explicit cousin,
        salsa erotica. [...]

   Also, try to look for "salsa" on Google Images.
