As someone who has played the congas for 50 years I can tell you that is one of the most amazing performances I have ever heard. As to the tin eared smucks who talk about the sound of the drums: this is straight ahead jazz not latin music fool! The genius in this performance is not only that it is rhythmically complex , but that he is playing melodically. If you can't hear that you should shut the fuck up!!!!

This is a true Master Conga Player. My first LP was Candido. He could play so melodically, that I had to pick up a Conga and I wanted to play 1/2 of what he played.

Dig that little Manteca quote in there. I always appreciated Candido's melodic approach to conga playing. That's what distinguishes him from the rest.

Primera vez que los escucho. Me quedé muda!!! IMPRESIONANTE!! Gracias internet por estas maravillas

Like Patato once said, to play congas, you must treat them like a woman. You must caress them and be gentle to get what you want out of them.

3 people hate music

love the relaxed way he gets the tumbao out of the drums. Not mad crazy on the quite straight formulas he uses for the solos.

i know can candido is a legend, but his playing really doesnt impress me. i dont even like the sound he gets out of the drum, they sound like hes playing cans.
