I'm starting to think you just don't now what the Son is.
This is moreso Mambo, but it's still part of the "Son Complex"

This is the original Son. I think they used this in this song past season of Boardwalk Empire:

The last two clips are from Cuban television in the 50's or 60's
Salsa was built on top of this music by Puerto Ricans in New York. Willie Colon would tell you as much.
