JC, the congas are on the right channel only, maybe you just have one channel coming through. Definitely not 60s, the first Star Wars was released in 1977. It is a 3 conga pattern, a fusion of tumbao, bossa nova, R&B-like rhythm with some variations thrown in, well played, not inspired but not bad. It is not a single named rhythm. For the OP, it is pretty clearly recorded, should not be hard to transcribe it yourself if you like the tune and know how to read and write music. You can play it either hand to hand or tumbao style, depending on what you know and how you set up your 3 congas.
