Besides, that Elegua chant is fundamentals in orisha chants. I never heard that bomba from da 50's but like my man Jorge said Elegua been around alot longer than Canario.

You have to read what has been posted Elegua chant yes have been around before we were born but if you read the melody that this guy is using is from an old recording and it may even go back 20's. I was look for photo of album cover to show you guy's but can't find corresponding cover for this recording .we are talking melody. Canario is been dead for over 50 years here is a little history on Canario' music , This is not Jose Alberto EL canario the Dominican singer. here is some of carnario,s work dating back 1929-1947 when he died and in that album cover that song my be there.I was not born when this was going on and I guaranty you were not born Ither. listen to the conga players there are two lesson to tumbador and repicador its the same rhythm your friend is playing on video.I have heard that bomba a lot of time and remember I was in the business for a long time I heard stuff that you may never have heard.
