Top Discovery: Bob Conga Online Interview by Van Stone frontpagenews1@yahoo.com (267) 293-9201
In life and in his new music as an
Independent Professional Music Artist, one of the top musicians, the soulful
singer, songwriter turned gospel fusion singer and music reporter Bob Conga
wants his followers to appreciate his music, just maybe, get a little spirit of
greater love for original music.
The Philadelphia Front Page News had
a chance to catch up with top music artist Bob Conga to talk more music
discovery.
Philadelphia
Front Page News: What was your first instrument that
you tried to play?
Bob
Conga: My father bought me a trombone. I
did not like it!
PFPN: When did you
first start playing percussion?
Conga: Well, I've been banging on things sense I was four.
That would be table tops, pillows, beds, hoods of people cars, box and
cans. There were many times that people would chase me down the streets
for banging on the hoods of their vehicles! My grandmother bought me my first
pair of cheap bongos in which I was very grateful!!
PFPN: What got you interested in playing the conga drum?
Bob Conga: At the age of 13 or 14 I heard this
magnificent sound that I had never heard before, coming from a distance. I
followed that sound into Fairmount Park that was near my house. Once there, I
saw a cleaned shaved headed bother playing three drums. Also there was a young
lady dancing to the sounds of the drums on rug. However, I was so intrigued
by the sounds of the drums. I failed to
notice the large snake that was also lying on the rug. That took my mind off of
the drums!! LOL
I had a conversation with a friend
of mine named Herb Smith, who played guitar for Patti Label
for 20 years. I asked him a
question, in which he agreed to answer the question for the questionnaire.
Conga: How did you first know of Kathy Sledge?
Herb
Smith: I first saw Kathy performing at the
Stardust club off of Broad and Vine many years ago. She was a little girl, driven around town by
her mother to perform in various clubs. I
also played on Sister Sledges recording of My Guy in
1980.
Well, until next time. It seems like Bob Conga’s music grows and grows.
There’s a sense of comfort and encouragement of lasting real music in his
tunes.
