ChaCho I me cuerda Rolito Soto, he is a very sought out bongo teacher. I met him back in the 80's in LA. there was another guy whose name escapes me he was from Panama, and lived in a restaurant on Vine in Hollywood, and he had a bongo book of his own. Kevin Ricard the percussionist studied bongos with him. Iwish I could remember his name, he was unique and could write out all the repiques,teach u to count and to read the martillos, and he had quite a few of them ,I have seen many bongo players in my musical lifetime but he was tipico and yet different in his style,totaly in "Clavao".....JC JOHNNY CONGA...
