Giovanni Hidalgo: Conga Solo with Tito Puente: Summertime 

He is.... Planet Groove 😊

You live under a rock. Hidalgo come here to Cuba since the early eighties to learn. The Plena and bomba are quite boring and polo lican love rumba guanguanco cha cha cha el son, changui' mambo guaracha mambo charanga and timba . We have thousands of percussionist that do the same here on the island. In poto lico its a oddity and the reason this lone star stands out

@@jfender8023 polo lican......??🤣

@@chitobalma ooops sorry poto lican

@@jfender8023Another envious Cuban. Yes, he went to Cuba to learn but Cubans also learn from him and admire him.

@@chironjo Cubans learn from him what ? He is playing Cuban music dumbass, with Cuban instruments invented in Cuba paylas and tumbadora… poto ricunts even changed the name of the instruments LOL BTYThere are thousands of percussionist here to a few polo licans no wonder it has to be celebrated . Schools around the world study cuban polyrhythms and percussion. Its been incorporated in big band since the 20s and made it way into popular music in the 50s rock and roll. No one is jealous of taino music. There is a reason polo licans don’t play plena to the world is utterly garbage . And Bomba is not unique to PR . La bomba no es solo puertorriqueña, sino que se adopta en todas partes donde los africanos occidentales fueron llevados a través del comercio transatlántico de esclavos. Brasil, Ecuador, Colombia, Surinam, Panamá, incluso Portugal e Islas Canarias y otras tierras se encuentran entre los países donde se baila la bomba.

An unbeatable and unsupased combo . Dave,Tito,and John. None greater or better..Ever

The irony all these poto licans playing cuban music they changed the name of, on instrumnents invented (tumbadora or the paylas etc )in cuba they changed the name of

@mongofan1 Saw this show in NYC Avery Fisher Hall Mongo didn’t look to good but he sounded awesome On Afro Blue he took me back to Africa with his playing RIP Watermelon Man

@jesusrivera743 ,Yeah, Mongo looked pretty frail as he walked onto the stage, but he played Afro Blue beautifully. I had the opportunity to meet Poncho Sanchez about ten years later and told him about that performance. He said I was very lucky to have caught it, that it was likely one of Mongo's last performances, as he was pretty certain Mongo retired later that year. I also got to see Patato at the Lincoln Center in NYC. He performed one piece at a remembrance of Tito Puente.

😮Meu amigo q Sax é esse? Acho q até a mosca q posou aí deixou o seu sunbido perfeito! 😂

💀💀💀💀💀

🙄😆 Okay.

And then you woke up.

Ignacio Berroa y Horacio "El Negro" Hernández... 2 bateristas cubanos que forman parte de la élite de músicos latinoamericanos que ejecutan el jazz afrocubano. Saludos.

thats NOT his nickname, wrong drummer!

@jfender8023 It’s unfortunate that the Government in Cuba didn’t appreciate the talent of it’s musicians. Musicos como Chano Pozo Aguabella , Santamaria Patato Perazza Ponce y muchos mas tuvieron la opportunidad para echar pa’ lante en los Estados Unidos. Yo te entiendo mi hermano. Hay que lastima ….

@@jesusrivera743 thats taino talk silly kid. Cuban bands have been influencing world music since the 1700s trova bolero conjunto danzon ( mexico and PR) The sugar boom brought the to the NY Texas Key West and New Orleans in 1810. You can hear the cuban tinge in country swing , new orleans Dixieland early american rock n roll even Flamenco incorporated cuban percussion in the 70s calling it Rumba , the dance shared in the SAmerican ports by cuban salors leading to tango which is basically a Cuban habanera All this stopped when the US blockade was established There is a reason you tainos dont play that plena garbage Everywhere in the world they hear cuban music every university in the world studies cuban music . The largest record label promoting publishing cuban music is in Germany. How many songs did poto licans take and changed the titles and lyrics from black cuban bands? Take a wild guess !
