Thank you headless cowbell god. Your powerful internal metronome will soon destroy the campsite owner's black soul. Rhythm is life - cowbell will prevail.

@drummercouk that's an interesting point to me (8 years late)...... I've chatted a bit with Rebeca Mauleon (author 101 Montunos, Salsa Guidebook for Piano and Ensemble) about the fact that the default introductory clave is nearly always 3:2. However, In my ridiculous hoard of about 15,000 afro-latino songs (Ismael Rivera, Celia Cruz, Eddie Palmieri, Fania All Stars, Larry Harlow, Eliades Ochoa, Compay Segundo, Jimmy Bosch, Africando, Spanish Harlem Orchestra, Ray Baretto, La Sonora Ponceña, Grupo Niiche, Grupo Gale, Quinto Mayor, Fruko y sus Tesos, Joe Arroyo, many more hopeless addictions :) you'll find maybe 20 songs in 3:2 clave!! It's just happened that way, and certainly not to contest your opinion. I actually encounter few 3:2 pieces, and wonder if it's the genre, the group of composers and players I tend to gravitate toward..... Now there have been a couple times I caught myself a measure off...... :) Like 3-4 times a decade And big gratitude for your amazing knowledge base; I have some difficulty with YT mail in case you ever see this, but I'd be interested to hear how you learned so many classical rhythms, did you travel in Africa or Americas? I was just thinking about how much certain UK natives embraced rhythms outside the traditional rhythms of the region...... Brian Auger and Alex Ligertwood, for example. While I've played with Alex and quite dug his bell playing while singing and over solos, Brian Auger is one severely funky player and composer I'd love to see. A Latin percussion section would've been a perfect fit in his bands, Anyway, thanks for something I wish I'd found years ago. I was baptized with clave by a Santana percussionist, apartment mates for 2 years of never enough tutelage. This video opened up plenty of fresh ideas. I'm saving some pennies for some bells, lucky to have cool neighbors other side of the wall of this shoddy old duplex on Chesapeake Bay. Be well!

One World that’s amazing thanks. I think the change to 2:3 clave seems to be a more modern trend. It changed a some years back. Check your older recordings & let me know. Also check out my book if you love bell patterns! There’s over 850 in there!

Do you count out the beat in your head, or is something that you feel more than count?

This is very useful information, thanks so much for sharing! I wonder if there's any music book out there where I can get all these patterns? Or source type of source where I can learn more about them?

Do your book include mp3s, videos, music notation on paper of the patterns (via sibelius, finale or similar)? Interested in how you got those, to check the "true" in these patterns. I am a music teacher and interested to use it with my students if so. Thanks for sharing. A great contribution.

Thanks for your comment. Arguably as "clave" mean "key" (as in important) I'd say that unless the Bossa has this Bossa (clave) key pattern in it there is very little else to indicate it being identified as a Bossa.

Agreed. Originally played on the shell (cascara) of the timbale. But drum kit player don't want to hit the shells of their drums so play it on ride or cowbell. So it can be a bell pattern if you want! Thanks for your comment.

drummercouk A "bell" pattern has a very specific function, at least in Cuban music, and it's much different than the function of clave. I appreciate the effort, but this is should not be used as a source authority.
