I was fortunate to actually be there at the Ruiz Belvis Center, I was working for the Chicago Percussion Center and we supplied the percussion for these two icons.....I enjoyed it to the max......Really great to see this video after so many years.

Amazing story about the legacy behind the great Giovanni Hidalgo! David La Mole Ortiz is the precision master who passed on his knowledge to his greatest student & there is no competition between the two greatest! Its about the Love for the instruments to take the conga to such a high level,& there is a humble & mutual respect between the two masters which is a great gift on this earth & should be admired!!

God Bless!!
