Armando Peraza (Santana's percussionist for 35 years) sitting in with the Barry Baughn Band 11/24/07. I believe he was 82 years old at the time. The other percussionist is Ron Powell on Congas.
Had the honor of meeting Mr.Peraza in Houston at a percussion clinic around 2001.What a wealth of knowledge and talent that man has.If anyone gets a chance go out and get Cal Tjader's "Los Ritmos Calientes" album recorded around 1956 i think, Mr.Peraza if featured on this album in kick ass form !!
83, actually when this one was recorded. But damn, he's still got some fancy moves.

I've seen him in concert in Zagreb 1975. Over 35 years I am his devoted fan.
