How To Do The Armando Peraza Tumbao
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 10 сен 2024
- Here's a tumbao that the Late, Great Armando Peraza would do. He had many variations of the tumbao, but this has always been one that I've truly enjoyed.
Armando's character and enthusiasm always seemed to translate into his playing. One that will never be mimicked or replaced. This is for you Mr. Peraza. Thank You!

I shook hands with Armando this was back in 1978 Inner Secrets tour it was like shaking hands with a brick
Eric, Thank-you for this wonderful tribute to Armando. I had the honour of teaching with Armando for a week on Cortes Island in 2000. Armando was all about the music. I don't think he was too particular about the position or the instrument, He told me "give me a chair and I will make music." He was very agile and besides being a great percussionist, he was a skilled boxer and baseball player..
Too Awesome! Thank you!
Caravanserail!!!!!! Paradise Album!!!! Kiss from Paris France. Armando had such a simplicity in his style, a marvelous natural. Then arrived my Brother Raul Rekow. You talk about thing that i am alone in my head to feel since 30 years I love Santana and percussion. Nobody around me in Paris knows about those things.
That tumbao is actually very similar to a triplet configuration in the way that it is accented in its eighth note phrases. He worked very closely with Billy Cobham when he was touring with John McLaughlin & Carlos Santana in the early '70s. Billy pioneered that form in jazz-fusion drumming, and Armando accompanied him perfectly as a counterpart. It opened that whole band up to some very free improvised playing. Just that tumbao in and of itself shows how much he influenced contemporary music at a very high level.
Armando was one of the rare drummers that when he solo'd his hands would go high and would come down with great speed and position. Check him when he and Mongo jammed together. That impressed the hell out of me!
You’re absolutely correct it’s the feeling of the rythim.
Much respect to this tribute 👑
Just elegant!! Armando Peraza!!! Awesome!!! Sabor!!! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Love these vids man. With so many technically flash players on the planet, it’s a joy that you revisit these beautiful simple soulful melodic tumbaos. Always so respectful. Again, great work Eric. Peace :-)
Adam Wilks thank you!!!
Dude…..back in 1997, Raul Rekow and Karl Perazzo did a clinic at the Guitar Center in San Bernardino, CA. Armando Peraza was a guest that day. Talk about a once in a lifetime chance to see the master play
Wow!!! Amazing!
Love Armando. You've probably seen it but in case not, check out the live performance of Saoco with Mongo and Armando. Armando is so chill, so relaxed all the way through. His phenomenal bongo work very apparent on the Santana Borboletta album.
Thanks for the weekly tutorials , I’ve been trying to re inspire myself with the congas after some time away from it all Peace & percussion !
Simple stroks, amazing sounds!
Oh I loved what he was communicating... the feel. My fave is his "flam". As simple as it might be, it's like a voice over a room of voices while playing any kind of drum. Conga, Djembe, Darbuka etc... Loving it.
Armando was Amazing! Showing the additional video footage from above while you're playing it is very helpful and appreciated. You should do it more on your videos...
Thanks Eric!
You can hear some really outstanding work by Armando on recordings he made with George Shearing in the mid-1950's, Check out Mambo Inn, Señor Blues and Caravan.
Dude, love your videos, always a pleasure to learn from you.
Armando played timbal in Santana in 79 just for that year the rest starting in 72 was on conga and bongo.
I come back and watch this video ofetn.. you def caught the vibes of my grandpa. Thanks for sharing.
Hey Eric, I'm blown away by your channel. Great production explanations and especially your musicianship, I love how you break down different players and compare how they play the same rhythm. Never seen any do that as concise as you. Very inspiring bro.
Matt V thank you so much! I just try to bring a different perspective and reintroduce patterns that inspire us today! Glad you’re enjoying the channel.
Nice tumbao Eric. I like when you say something like: "Is not a matter of technique, is about feeling". Gerardo Rosales says he does not play the modern style but more like Barreto or Tata, because that's the way he feels good. Another example is how Montalvo doew his slap, a crazy thing, but that is his style 😅
Greetings Eric, another very interesting and enjoyable video, I have been an admirer of the late, great AP since I first got into the music of Santana in the mid 70's and saw him live many times.I love the way you used a short clip from the Santana/Shorter band concert at the Montreux jazz Festival in '88.Probably the greatest jazz/rock /latin fusion gig in history!! AP was 65 then and I recall a couple of comments by Carlos about AP: "You will never see Armando walking like a tired duck",and, " When Armando plays the congas, that's Africa talking to you ,man"
You are absolutely right in that AP was not technically flash, he did not have to be, it was his 'feeling' that he projected and everyone felt it and connected with it, became part of it.
This is a wonderful tumbao and many thanks indeed for breaking it down. I am about to try it for the first time and hopefully get the 'swing' of it.
I really look forward to your bi weekly posts.
All the best to you and yours.
Blair MacEwan Crosbie man thanks for that story! Truly appreciate it
It's amazing how he was able to change the sound of Santana but not change Santana
47 years old in 1972 when he joined up and stayed with him for 20 yrs.
Of course everybody knows on gitano from The amigos album he wrote the song and sung it
Thanks so much for your lessons. I love your passion for this beautiful instrument.
Outstanding video bro!! Huge Armando fan so I just love this! Thank you!
That's actually one of my favorite tumbaos. It has a really nice dif sound! Great vid Eric.
Fangsinurface thanks Bro!
Thats the sweetest tumbao pattern I've ever heard. Thanks!
Hi: Eric, Good work on Armando ! Thanks for the Video.
Can't wait for ur bongo vids.. Vaya!!!!
That's a nice rhythm, thanks for teaching it.
Always waited for New York radio's Symphony Sid to play a Latin number by pianist George Shearing's group in the late 1950s because Armando Peraza was featured on congas.Not much laterr saw Shearing's trio? quartet? at beautiful Carnagie Hall. Peraza would come from the wings to play the Latin tunes. He would spread the chart (music) on the floor and read (I suppose) while sitting behind 2 congas. Loved his playing, especially the slap which really cracked.
Tocaba música cubana
Magic stuff, Eric. Much appreciation from way over here in Sydney, Australia!
Gavin Dixon thank you!
Another good one! Love your sense of humor!
Saludos Eric desde Puerto Rico.Excelentes tus videos.👍
Awesome, thanks for share!
Thanks! This gives us more options
Been playing with this tumbao. Works really well with the 1+2 open open slap (Quinto) played RLR instead of the RRR. :-)
Thanks, love the history and lessons!!!
oye Eric... Armando was a fuckin beast en el bongó too. absolutely nuts with his phrasin'.. Check him out in the late 40s on the Kubavana record. he plays bongó with Patato at his side on tumbadora...fuckin beasts!!!
Hi I always fallow you, if you just have two congas how you do it if ? If is possible and like always thanks for the excellent job have done with this tutorial have a nice day
Doesn't seem possible.
Yeaaaa you can't really do that melody with just two congas BUT.... you can still do the pattern... Just hit the second note (what I would do on the third conga) on your tumba. So it would be 2 on your tumba and then the same two on your conga... The melody wouldn't sound the same but at least you'd be able to practice the pattern.

Thanks I appreciate the the explanation and the concerns have a nice day.
That was great, and love that Peraza tumbao. Your congas sound great, love it. Thanks bro.
Hola Eric, you are so cool. Not quite as cool as your boy, yet you are very cool. Ah! Armando Peraza groove que chevere. Carlos Santana once said something like this in an interview when asked about the evolution of his music"my music changed when Armando Peteza came in." No wiser words ever spoken. Carlos gave Armando Pereaza his props, resoect, recognition and without Carlos so many would never have heard Armando's groove. If you don't know who Armando Pereza is a duh! Oh, Hey Eric thanks big time!
Hahahaha thanks man! As always I appreciate you.
Quien te dijo dolida q armando nadie lo había escuchado sin Carlos si armando viene d los 49 tocando jazz por dios no escribas mas q andas como loca ya hasta este tipo te conoce jj
@@APercussionLife no le hagas caso este es un hater q anda por todos lados
Great videos man... Really great production and everything. Just stumbled across your channel and subscribed. Thanks!
Great videos keep up the great work
Thank you bro to asking how do you see them or keep your congas from getting dry what do you use keep bringing good videos and I will always like them
Aaron Stuckey have you tried using Shea Butter lotion???
Eric, hi ! check Armando on a flashing solo with Chepito Areas with the Carlos Santana Band, LP or CD "Welcome" the track "Mother Africa"....
Armando era d cuba no del África por dios dejen d buscar excusas armando tocaba música cubana
Nice!
Funny you showed a fragment of that Giovanni and Changuito-chat. I was wondering How often you do the thing in 07:30 ????
Patrick Castillo haha thanks... well in one cycle of the Tumbao just Once. I was just showing how the first slap would be placed
I like that!
Very nice! 👍
Those congas sound nassshhhhhshhxhxhxhshshxhhshstaaaaaaaey! Crisp!
yeahh bongos classes when?cant wait
Jorge Salazar soooooon Within the next couple of months!
great job Eric! thnx a lot!
Without the bongos, isn't that set-up the same one that Patato used?
Thomas Petruso similar... but if you see at 4:33 you’ll see him playing with 3 drums and see how far he’d really put it haha
Nice vid!!! The steers seem to sound better and better the more time you have them on. Do you think they are still breaking in?
reallife828 they are!!! And I think they still got some breaking into them
Need advise to buy my first set of Congas, I have someone that is selling me a set of conga y tumbadora LP Matador. Wood or Fiberglass? What’s the difference?
Hey Eric, thanks for the great vid man! What set up do you have here? Is that a quinto , conga nd tumba or 2 congas?
Tengo una semana que es cuche por primera vez .a Peraza. Y creo juntos a patato y Mongo ellos tres son los mejores .digo eso pienso
Te faltan más cubanos como tata güines y anga
@@willaragon6508 ok.se que Cuba es inmenso. en musicos.de gran calidad. Suludos.desde.Santo.Domingo
Hi Eric I'm a new subscriber and I'm really enjoying your recounts of the great congeros of out times. I just have one request, your lessons would add more clarity for me if you played them against a clave or a count of some kind. Or even against an audible pulse. Or if you can, transcribe the rhythms. Any of these solutions would be the icing on the cake for me and maybe other as well. Keep up the good work my friend.
Much Appreciate the Tutorials... Thank you... Perhaps Written notations to sum up the Rhythm would be very helpful as well... cheers
wachi wara❤️
Make a video about Kachiro Thompson!
Luiz Martins Oh Man! Kachiro is one of my favs!!! He’s so good! I’ll def add him to the list!
A Percussion Life Thanks man!

Always good material but i got a request for the breakdown of Milton Cardona's solo on Te Estan Buscando with Ruben
Oh Man!!! That's going to be fun! That's a pretty legendary solo you're asking for from a Legendary player haha
A Percussion Life you know it!
@@juanpena5797 estás hablando d alguien q fue influenciado hasta por tata güines por dios
I think Poncho Sanchez sets up with the drums in a L shape position kind of similar to that.
Songoish...
