Here are hot Latin jazz and Afro-Cuban rhythms by Seattle-based percussionist Johnny Conga. This one has a lot of swing -- check out "Siempre Va Bien" -- as well as heavy percussive interludes ...there are deep, rich, conga solos (like "Conganation") peppered throughout. Included here are some tracks from Conga's first cd, the 1994 "Roots of Rhythm," as well as totally new material.
