Can anyone recomend any great bono/conga albums


I have been looking for some good tracks with lots of bongos/congas to enjoy on an very open clean tube set up. Something that realy demonstrates the system... I have had my fill of jazz.

While not straight congas and bongos, check out the Buena Vista Social Club. This is produced by Rye Cooder and a couple of other big name talented people and recorded with local artists in Cuba. The first of the two discs released is both great music and excellently recorded. The second is good as well, but not as much island type percussion as you are seeking.

What about Eek A Mouse? The Rippingtons - though perhaps again not as much Bongo/congas?

Also, go to Yourmusic.com and do some searches for under world music. You can listen to various track pieces on line to get a feel. CD's, included SACD and DVD-A are only $6.99 including shipping if you sign up to buy at least one disc per month.
Dweller, Funny you mention this album, shortly after my post to this thread I listened to this album last night (Rhythm Saints) and thought of this thread.
