A 3-drum conga rhythm starts it off, with large cowbell coming in soon after, playing on 1&3 with the left foot, then the right foot comes in and plays 2/3 Son Clave. The rhythm evolves and changes while the 'time & Clave' remain steady all along. There is some soloing towards the end. (crank up volume if too quiet)

Sounds and instruments used: 4 congas, guiro, agogo bells, small cowbell, large cowbell, jam block, plus stick and scratcher on congas. (Crank up volume if necessary)
