Call Me Al (bodyguard) - Paul Simon - Bongos

10 year old Neil Allen, plays bongos to Paul Simon's "You Can Call Me Al". Neil has been playing bongos for 2 weeks at this point, and has never had lessons...

*ATTENTION* This work is presented under a claim of fair-use. It is presented for the purpose of peer review of the technical and artistic skills of the poster (Neil Allen). Effective measures have been put in place to render this work valueless as a reproduction of the underlying work.

The spoilers are:

1. The bongo arrangement is not the original; but is, in fact, a significantly divergent original arrangement composed by Neil Allen.

2. The percussion is mixed sufficiently loud to overwhelm the underlying soundtrack.

2. The overall quality of the audio is intentionally, and significantly impaired.

In addition, to seeking peer review, this work also seeks to provide value to the percussion community at-large, through the presentation of original percussion arrangement.

The underlying work ("Call Me Al" by Paul Simon) remains the sole copyright of the respective owner.
