CommentBembe Orisha: A Party for the Earth Spirits
On talking drum is Siriku Adepoju. Siriku is perhaps the greatest talking drummer in the world. He?s the Paganini of the talking drum, that?s a variable pitch instrument. Then there?s Nengue Hernandez who is master of all things Latin American and he?s a great singer. Bobi Cespedes is of Afro-Cuban descent. She?s a vocalist and plays clave. Then there?s Azam Ali who brings the Persian element into it. She was born and raised in India and plays hammered dulcimer, sings ecstatic vocal and plays percussion. Greg Ellis is a master of middle eastern percussion and he plays instruments from Africa as well. Barney Doyle is a western rock and roll guitar player but he?s wonderfully suited for this because he has the west African sensibilities. And Rahsaan Fredricks on bass. He plays a lot of afro-Cuban style and funk and it rocks.
