Nfamara Badjie Master drummer from Gambia watches Cándido Camero

Then something changed.
What was it?
Bobby Sanabria interviews Cándido Camero, the most recorded conga player in jazz history.
October 14, 2017 – Jazz Forum: Conga master Candido (age 96) surprises the crowd with his rarely-seen bass and cowbell skills.
