[robledoangel]

E visto muchos videos con Giovanni. Pero este si es el primer video al que yo pueda apreciar de verdad la destreza y el talento de Giovanni Hidalgo. Gracias Boricua.

There have been so many solos where you say, that’s the best Giovanni solo I’ve ever heard. The problem is that, they simply are all the best. Every solo he has done has made us question which one is best. Tina Turner sang it best…. “You’re simply the best!”

[bernardwatson]

Bam! And that's how it's done!

[guiliureste]

La labor de Congahead de difusor de Nuestra Herencia y Raíces Latinas es Inmensamente Invaluable, Gracias Mil por Permitirnos disfrutar de tan Magna Labor tiene el mismo Valor Cultural que la de todos los Músicos de todas partes del mundo que han degustado del Sabor LatinoAmericano y han Expresado su Agradecimiento llenando las Arcas de Nuestra Herencia Latina con su excelso Aporte Musical.
Gracias Congahead!

This is the best Video I have seen of Giovanni yet. Dandy on a Bongo solo on La Rumba is superb. Everybody plays with such sensitivity. Just Wonderful.

[mannyrosario]

I just love how they're smiling the whole set. 💪🏼👍🏼😁

[reginaldojosediazgranadosr]

indudablemente que Giovanni es todo un espectáculo, este tema pareciera que fue ensayado muchas veces por lo acoplado que esta el conjunto. pero creo que con solo verse a la cara ya cada uno sabe lo que tiene que hacer.
