How to do the Ray Barretto Tumbao Part 2

Just wanted to break down another one of Ray Barretto's Tumbaos in his song "Ban Ban Quere". I'm going off of how he did it in the Original Recording.
To be Honest... It's very simple, but where and when he decides to place this tumbao in the era in which he did it, really speaks volumes on why he is often referred to as the Superman.

Man, that is waay out there. Barretto was one of all-time favorites!

[@nellmusic1]

That was great!! Ray Barreto was a conguero for the ages!! A legend!!!

Hello papi and a good day to you and your your family, friends and comrades. I'm can't seem to remember chacha song that Barreto recorded and executes a magnificent conga solo in it. Just can't remember the name if the tune. But, I think it maybe in one of his early 80's album. The solo he performs in chacha tune is just blessed. I figured you've got to know it if anyone. Thank you, God bless and please advise if you can. PS: I used to be a pretty good congero with a couple bands and also play guitar, piano and little bit of bass. But, now a messed up 72 year man and although I work out and all the arthritis in my joints just doesn't let me fulfull my once talents any more. You know. It's called getting old. I always suggest people don't do but it kind of creeps up on you. Of you have to add the too much partying and drugs. Well enough about me and bye, love and best.

Broo...The break down is INSANE...KEEP IT GOING. What's even crazier is that I'm sure most of these patterns that Ray did were all based on feel. He didn't try to figure out if it should go where on the clave...SANGRE NEGRA!!! AFRO FEEL....AMAZING.

[@APercussionLife]

hahaha exactly!!! Thanks man I really appreciate it.

[@bongosabroso]

What's even more amazing is that back then there never any percussion charts....all that was pure HEART...

[@bongosabroso]

They used to practice and practice as a band b4 going into the studio to record it

[@APercussionLife]

bongosabroso I KNOOOOWWWWW!!! Which is just crazy!!! But that’s what made that music then so special!

[@congatone]

[@mgdiaz2158]

Las manos duras de ray, he hit those congas so hard and clean you would know it was ray playing the congas when you hear it, a special sound.

[@tonyperez7973]

I really can appreciate your love for Barretto. He was a genius. Going in and out of clave is called contra tiempo. He did it a lot.

[@josegoicuria3372]

My Dad played bass for Ray for a while. Papi played for Charlie Palmieri for quite some time. I've been working on my tumbao while listening to Cocinando Sauve. Thanks for hopping me more on Ray Supetman Barretto.

[@bongosabroso]
