Bravo! Brubeck! is a 1967 live album by Dave Brubeck and his quartet, recorded during their tour of Mexico. The quartet were augmented by Chamin Correa on guitar, and the bongo and conga player Salvador Agüero (Rabito). It was released in 1967.

The album was reviewed by Scott Yanow at Allmusic who wrote that "One of the better Dave Brubeck LPs from the later period of the Quartet with altoist Paul Desmond, this set is unusual in that it only contains one Brubeck original. ...The results are melodic but swinging treatments of a variety of famous themes" - Wikipedia

Broadway, Bongos and Mr. B is a 1961 studio album by the American singer Billy Eckstine. It was arranged by Hal Mooney, and marked Eckstine's return to Roulette Records.[2] The album features Latin tinged arrangements of popular Broadway show tunes, with a percussion section of xylophones, marimbas and bongos.[3]

In their July 1961 review of Broadway, Bongos and Mr. B, Billboard magazine wrote that "This is one of the best albums made by Billy Eckstine in many years", and that he was "singing with confidence again in his own style". The review concluded that it was "A strong new album that could help win back many of Mr. B's fans". - Wikipedia

Strolled through Toulouse🇫🇷 last night and stumbled on something unexpected—a man tuning bongos with a blowtorch. 🔥🥁 He’d hit the drum, then blast it with fire, switching back and forth.

#Jazz + #Reggaeton = "Jazzaeton"? :) i recorded and mixed all of these #tracks down tonight! started with the #bongos, then the electric 5-string bass #guitar (BEADG tuning), then the synth #Rhodes with a rotary effect (Roland XV-5080 module), and then the #acoustic #bass guitar (ADGC #tuning)... I think I'm starting to get this #LatinJazz thing down!

the melody is low in the mix to emphasize the rhythm section. #rhythm & #harmony are the most important jazz elements.

I wanted to play bongos on a new song I wrote for my band, but didn’t want to sit w/ the bongos between my knees because that’s not my style of showmanship. I looked up bongo stands and they’re like $160. So, I dug through the metal scrap heap at my weekend job and found hunks of old playground equipment. I had my father in law cut them to lengths I had in mind, screwed them together with L-brackets and I’m in business. Will debut the bongo stand at our show tomorrow night. #maker #music #bongos
