Well the first way is to play a Bossa nova rhythm and then there is tumbao, depending on the rhythmic way you approach the tune. Not too many varietys to play to a Bossa....At your Service...JC JOHNNY CONGA.... :;):

Hola Gilbert,

Hope all is well! Michel Camilo's version of "Blue Bossa" is a very clear example of the influence "Changuito" songo movements has created on many U.S. drummers like, Joel Rosenblant, Dave Weckl, Cliff Almond. He describes it on his "History of Songo" video, as the Songo primordial.

Saludos,

Jorge Ginorio
