[edit] other names

what are some other names for the bongo drums beside tbila? Move to bongo drum?

  • Agree. Article was cut from bongo drum and pasted to bongos. Needs to be history-merged back there.   –radiojon 02:21, 2005 Jun 15 (UTC)

This article has been renamed as the result of a move request. violet/riga (t) 19:06, 21 Jun 2005 (UTC)

[edit] cleanup needed

UGH! This article is completely confusing. It goes from talking about their origin in Cuba, and then abruptly shifts to it talking about Africa and the Middle East... makes no sense! ß 17:55, 27 December 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Origins

Versions in other languages say they are og African origin. The French version has material not covered here. Get-back-world-respect 01:40, 13 January 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Fad?

Wasn't this a fad during the late 1950s and early 1960s? I seem to recall it was but I can't find any references on the Internet about it. -Rolypolyman 22:13, 12 May 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Genres of music where the bongos are found

I've removed this section completely. No other instrument page seems to have it, and it was becoming rather unencyclopedic. Jellocube27 10:15, 6 June 2007 (UTC) Duh you got owned O.W.N.E.D. owned
