Drum Solo, Brice Wassy "Mangabolo"

Brice Wassy at Manu Di Bango Concert, Jazz Open Stuttgart, 1995...drummer´s goospickles!
This is one of my most favourite drum solos...very relaxed, pure feeling!

Watch my very lousy amateur attempt to cover this great drum solo:, no way to get even close to this great feeling...

Brice,

Had also written a book "musicology". It's based on his study of bamileke rythms and south african rythms. If you are a drummer, it's a book for you because the way he plays it is very out of knowing rythms (binaire or tertiaire). I think he is a real scientist of rythms. And he is my cousin :)

Where can I get that book from? Can I download a sample page somewhere?

Regards.
