LP Patato Fiberglass Congas - Product Information
Carlos "Patato" Valdez's remarkable career and groundbreaking multi-conga technique has had a powerful impact on countless drummers, percussionists, and music lovers. His contribution to Latin music includes a unique "melodic" approach to conga playing. Since 1970, Patato's association with Latin Percussion has inspired many new product developments, worldwide tours, and recording projects.
