I am looking for everything rumba guaguanco. I have a Bobby Matos cd with a few selections that feature the rythym but the vocals drown out the congas. Does anyone know of good sites or CD's that feature the Guaguanco? DESCARGA !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

If you want to learn to play Guaguancó you should learn from "La Mata". Get some Cd's from Los Muñequitos de Matanzas, Grupo AfroCuba de Matanzas, Clave y Guaguancó, Yoruba Andabo, Pancho Quinto, Carlos Embale, Los Papines, Cutumba!

Hope this helps!

Saludos, Jorge Ginorio

Johnny, "La Mata" is the source itself.

La Raíz

Johnny, Jorge can you explain for me what you talking about, please...

Laurent, "La Mata" is just a term we use in Puerto Rico.
For example we can say that Maestro Rafael Cepeda, Q.P.D., was "La Mata", "El Fundamento", La Raíz, of La Bomba y La Plena in Puerto Rico. Hope this helps!
