DESCRIPTION: Demo-ing the power of my 1970s vintage Gon Bop drums, drums played by members the Oya African Dancers & Drummers in DC; with Olatunji in New York; by the Nicholas Brothers at the Brooklyn Academy of Music; in numerous ceremonies over the years; and in the R&B band The Repeat Offenders (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=z1RUpwZfP-E; http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GXzP_otNmgo). With 12-, 11-, & 10.5-inch heads, they're not super-sized, but have super staying power.
