Jamming in Africa

Postby caballoballo » Thu Dec 23, 2010 10:06 am

Saludos and happy holidays to all. The following pictures were taken in Africa while I was deploy there the last couple months. That Bongó was hand made by Lito from Arroyo P.R out of Oak wood. Very easy to get a slap out of the Macho an a nice low tone out of the Hembra. Common size of Macho (7") and odd size on the Hembra (8" 13/16 )

What country is this too? I am guessing you were plying High Life, Sokous or Rumba?

Take it to the Motherland!
We are surrounded by rhythm everywhere we go. Listen and be in sync with the clave. Peace
