Description
Bongo A-Go-Go!!! By gosh, but of course! How is it that El Vidocq had never before cast a spell upon this percussively practical instrument? Indeed, though modest in size, the sonorous bongo is rather difficult to ignore.
Ever groovy and convivial, this instrument straight out of the ‘50s and ‘60s is readily associated with Quentin Tarantino, not to mention Michael Viner’s Incredible Bongo Band. But as always, our southwestern-French selector has proudly unearthed a few rare nuggets, digging deep into his ridiculous collection of original 45s to propose some sumptuous exotica, OST-flavored pop, R'n'B & R'n'R, bongo boogie, mambo and cha-cha-cha, pulsating swing...
And once again, Marcel Bontempi has produced a jacket of marvelous eye candy. Boom Bam Da Boom, it’s time to turn up the volume and wiggle one’s fanny to these fantastic arrangements!
