Pedro Dos Santos "krishnanda" 1968 - Brasil

"krishnanda"
Pedro Dos Santos a.k.a. "Pedro Do Sorongo"
Original 1968 vinyl LP on CBS Brasil

((((1968))))

My two favorite Brasilian multi percussionists are
'Papete' and Mestre Pedro Dos Santos, inventor of the
percussion instruments the 'Sorongo' and the 'Tamba'.
Pedro's work with guitarist Sebastião Tapajós is superb.
This is Pedro Dos Santos 1968 very interesting solo work.
