Wow! You guys are great! Thanks for the link...So much fun...I went to Youtube and also watched your Long Train Running, Shake your Money Maker, Call Me The Breeze, Rock Me and the cajon is so cool! Thanks for introducing me to the Cajon. I also watched several other Cajon vids. You are quite an accomplished solo guitarist, too.
thanks for the nice word but I am a mere apprentice.You my friend are a truly talented and accomplished musician.Thanks for the links to your music videos as well... they are soooo incredibly good !
Oh and as for the cajon (pronounced kahon with a hard h) is a regular instrument in flamenco music and is played exceptionally well by a lot of flamenco musicians here in Spain.We started using it as well for rock and blues etc. since the drums were quite loud and took up a lopt of space in many of the small bars we played in.The front board of the box can regulated tighter or looser to give it different sound.depending on where you hit it and can actually sound almost like a snare drum.
