Babatunde - Drums on Fire 

This man brought African drums to America. Ache Baba! A true genius.

wow this one is very good. very good vibe ....people in africa should stop war and listen to some soul touching drums and show brotherhood...i truly beleive that music has some magical power.

I think it's always amazing to see something like this. As he plays, you can just see his energy rising as the tempo increases and his smile widens. It's absolutely lovely.

Babatunde Olatunje was a fantastic man. We brought him to Central Connecticut State University back in 1991. It was a magical experience.

Nice composition. I really enjoy being able to see baba play by himself so that I van really see what he is doing.

Baba Alatunji, is awesome, his Drums of Passion album is a classic, Odunday , Jingo, Run Away He showed Afro -Americans that Africa Drumming is a culture in 1959 , when his album came out. I saw him perform at the Univ. Of Penn , one of his band played the Kora, simply beautiful! R.I.P BABA

AMAZING! He made those drums really depict fire.

one of the greatest drummers that ever lived in human record

NOW HE'S WAT U CALL A TRUE DRUMMER

The Beautiful Talking Of The Drum.

This song is called Oya - Drums Of Passion Album 1959

this brings back memories ....... !!!

Nobody...NOBODY can equal Olatunji! One can only play in his shadow respectfully.

he always blows my mind within 7 seconds of playing

WOW Não estava nada à espera disto. Alto som. Quem é ele?? Existem mais videos?? Is there any more videos from him?? Great beat

this is it,fire all over the place

epic. bringing back the traditions.

I notice that you don't have tags for this under Babatunde Olatunji, makes it more difficult to find if you're looking for Baba. Can you add that tag to the video, please? I love Baba. I was lucky to get a workshop with him 10 years ago before he died. Derbeno, how did you get videos of him? Looks like he was toward the end. When where they taken?

Damn this Beat is fire!

Very cool burning!

Respect

Love.

Look at my video list there is another one called "babatunde djembe performance" Santana's Jingo Lo Ba came from him. Try and get his CD "drums of passion" look on amazon for it.

great ritmo grat music bravo ciao Babatunde

Genial!

i watched this on shrooms it was crazy

If youn think this is good, you should have seen his full show of almost 30 minutes.
