@junyto12 you know it's sad that a lot of people still hold old superstitions of devil worshipping witchdoctors in the "dark continent".A lot of people are conditioned in the western faiths where it's proper to frown upon african and orignal faiths that really are the majority in the earth. Most people in all countries practice their native religions with the dominant faith of the districk or country.

after years of playing along to his music, i and my wife got to meet and chat with Mongo when he played at the Fairmont Hotel Venetian Room back in the eighties. He was such a nice man,,,,his spirit shown through with such authenticity. wish he had recorded more such as these.
this is "Afro Cuban" so all arguments about this is AFRICAN or this is LATIN seems a little redundant to me
