Paoli Mehias, "Mi Tambor". Like Giovanni, a percussionist from a different universe.

Miguel Anga Diaz - Echu Minga

On one track he plays "Round midnight" on seven tuned Conga. Really top stuff.

Listening to something I hadnt heard since like 1990 or so, I came across this album in a record store the other day, I lunged at it and snapped it up real quick!

My taped version had long since been destroyed.
Ah reliving old memories.... Daniel's recordings had a big influence on my development into a more serious player in the late 80's early 90's.

The old but still "new" Ray Barretto's classics...
Ricanstruction, Indestructible, The Message

Also, the new and refreshing Yerba Buena's Island Music. This is great album and great group in my opinion. A lot of youg musicians of a diverse backround and great feel good music with latin roots. Ssssssshhhhek it out.

I also got a copy of the recent album released by "Orishas". Gotta get my dose of hip/hop, but the good stuff not the bling, bling BS

Yerba Buena is a great group! I am hoping to see them live at some point. I like Orishas as well but I prefer their first CD. You can't go wrong with some Latin Hip Hop

Someone just got something off the net for me I was searching for a while: a tune called "Mother Africa" from Santana's "Welcome" album, one I used to have. Boy, that tune kicks. Haven't heard it in so long, was one early inspiration for me.

I wanna hear that Miguel Anga Diaz and Paoli Mehias music that was mentioned here, sounds awesome; I'm sure it is.
