It is in a different format than most of the others, recorded as a lesson in Abakua songs starting with Enkame, then an Abakua song, then each part recorded separately (with the Ekon holding time) and then all together again. I am amazed that the Abakua powers-that-be let this recording be made and released, I guess these are not the secret songs or rhythms. This CD is pretty clearly recorded, with each part broken down separately so that soon everyone and their mother will be playing bonko enchimiya!

Did you record the class when Jesus showed you the bonko parts?

Also, have you had any negative experiences when playing bonko and other Abakua parts in settings where some of the other drummers are Abakua?
