even with conch shells there is a critic that has to compare players by saying one sucks compared to the other when there is no reason you can't appreciate all with out comparisons.

Seriously, Steve Turre sucks at conch compared to what some younger musicians have acheived with this "organic" instrument. He just receives all the hype. You all should check out the young, unknown, dude who covers red hot chili peppers songs on conch shell. His youtube username is blacklungsjoe , and he really makes Steve Turre look like a bull-shiter on shell.
Go head Steve - Play them shells brother. You play them things better than most people play their instrument.
I started myself to play shells, completely by accident. I was in Maui and the first night I was told to play shells during the sunset. I played the shells each and every night I was on the island, 20 days and 20 sunsets. I purchased my own shell now. Maybe we will do like J.J. and Kai except on shells.

That's Don Alias on congas. Had the honor of meeting him a few years back. He's gone now, making heaven a more toe-tappin' place.

@StokedindubC he's not even close to Steve Turre - Steve makes music and art. blacklungsjoe produces just notes, nothing more.
