Drums ... Drums in the Deep

The new djembe is from the Ivory Coast (by way of Haight and Ashbury Music Center). It has a 13-inch head and sounds brighter than I would've thought. I love the carvings. Unfortunately, the shop didn't have any info on the type of wood used. Still, I played just about every djembe in stores from Concord to SF, and this was the winner.

Beautiful djembe! Reminds me of African dance days at Southwestern and SDSU. What a feeling and a workout!
