Thanks for your message. Giovanni went through amputations because of diabetes complications. Although unfortunate, he keeps playing and is in good spirits, always creating and sounding great!
I am sorry to hear people are having "issues" about this valuable video. In any case here are the names of some of the Bay Area conga drummers who played: John Santos, Harold "Butch" Haynes, John Bendich, and David Frazier. I am fortunate to have known these fine drummers from the 1960s and 1970s and it´s great to see they are still at it.
Vaya Siempre será un Placer ver estos Grandes de la Percusión que han dado tanta enseñanza con sus videos talleres, si hay alguien aquí en este Grupo que le sobre dinero y le pueda dar unos Dólares a Changuito, hágalo con gusto, será por que se lo merece ya que su situación económica es bastante Mala,el se encuentra viviendo en Cuba busque su contacto y Hagalo , ya saben que por problemas de Azúcar hubo que amputarle una PIERNA,Hagalo que el Todopoderoso le retribuira ese DINERO, Vaya Chevre, Abrazo Gigantesco desde Curramba la Bella Barranquilla Colombia.
Giovanni que Dios te bendiga por muchos anos mas. Eres una inspiracion oara esos de nosotros tambien que nos gusta tocar pero teniamos otros trabajos tambien.
again Giovanni shows that he is a truly superior role model for human beings. that is really what greatness is. He has also given inspiration to an incredibly maligned and mis-treated Cuba. at it's roots Salsa is Cuba . those roots come from a largely free intermixing of " blacks " and " whites. " Brazil was also another country that produced a famous style of music through the same sentiment. where the common person sees race, i only see whether a person is a superior person or not. that leaves out the majority and includes Giovanni.
