  • omg she's such a bad translator.... I love my Cajon Peruano =]

  • que colera con la traductora, no sabe traducir y el público se lleva una mala informacion

  • oye muchacha no nos cambies la historia

  • la minita traduce pero remal!!! hahaha de donde es??? hahaha

  • Lalo's knowledge and sense of humor gets lost due to a very, very, very bad translation.

    Saludos Lalo

  • viva el peru carajo

  • omg dats my uncle, mi tio lalo!!!

  • Rompe Ca(n)adulce!!!

  • the instrument made in Africa was different, really big.

  • Nice. I would imagine that the square drum in Africa that Lalo is referring to is the Gomé. This lecture raises a lot of questions, really about where Africa stops and Peru begins for Lalo. There is also a tradition of playing the carcass of the harp as a drum in Peru. There are paintings of people doing this to accompany zamacueca in 19th c. Lima. There is a school of thought that this tradition fed into the cajón of today, of which Lima's "black" families are master players.
