This review is from: Afro-Cuban Drumming (Paperback)
After reviewing the book and listening to the CD,I would not buythis book again.The CD is short in duration and demonsrates only a few examples in the book.The material is consistent with other books on the subject but more recorded examples are needed in order for a beginning-level student to grasp the concepts.There are some short sections on the Bongo,Timbales and Djembe but only a extra-lean portion so don't waste your money!
