Tito Puente was mostly responsible for bringing Salsa to the broader audiences around the world. He began his carreer in the late 1940 initially peaked in popularity throughout the 1950s.
His popularity among the Hispanic population never waned, but his direct influence on on worldwide stage was not as great until Carlos Santana rerecorded Puente's "Oye Como Va" in the early 1970s. Eddie Palmieri, Marc Anthony and Ricky Martin have continued making Salsa commercially acceptable world-wide. Gilberto Santa Rosa and La India should also get a mention. Their popularity spurred a second "golden age" for Tito Puente who had never stopped performing.
Another giant influence on the world-wide popularity of Salsa is Cuban-born Celia Cruz. She was the queen of Salsa and responsible for much of its popularity from the late 50s until her death just recently. Celia was already a well known salsa singer but her career was re-launched onto the world-wide stage when she and another Salsa great Johnny Pacheco made an album in 1974. It was wildly popular internationally.
