I believe in1968 Big Black played the congas along with a flute player in reverve. It was incredible. I have been looking for that song ever sense. I got his Lion Walk album but the song is not on it. Please help!
oh my! that hand coreagrofi needs a hell lot of speed and skill i mean, look at 1.00 to 1.20 that cordination is just sick! i'll gues playing with ur hands like him is like playing with 5 drumsticks in one hand with all the different beats hes making to catch up the solo.
Big Black is one of the greatest percussionists ever. he has innovated hand drumming like no other drummer before him. at about 1:20 it sounds like an oud. i hope he makes a solo dvd.
Ha ha, "this is public domain footage"? Are you seriously going to try to claim that? Do you even realize that the very reason this movie took 35 years to release is because of arguments over who owned the rights to what footage?
And this guy is great, I wish there was more about him on the Internet.
Excellent display of musicianship here. I'd kill for half of that kind of talent. Looking forward to watching this movie, too. Can't wait to hear what else is in the soundtrack.
I'm sure I could audily do something similar sounding, with pretty much equal quality, (as long you didn't see how I was doing it), but my technique is total cheese!. No way could I do what he does with one and going like that. He is great at is ability to play great rhythms with a single hand. I fake congas well, Sounds good, but I have no grasp on real technique, when I play them. He also looks much cooler doing it!

I'm sure I could audily do something similar sounding, with pretty much equal quality, (as long you didn't see how I was doing it), but my technique is total cheese!. No way could I do what he does with one and going like that. He is great at is ability to play great rhythms with a single hand. I fake congas well, Sounds good, but I have no grasp on real technique, when I play them. He also looks much cooler doing it!
