Drum Damba: Talking Drum Lessons (Performance in World Music Series, No 2)
from White Cliffs Media
Price: $17.95

Customer Review:

This book is hopeless without the instructional CD of the same name that is advertised on the White Cliffs web site. However it seems the instruction CD doesn't exist. Give the book a miss, there are plenty of better books on African drumming.

Drum Circle Spirit: Facilitating Human Potential through Rhythm (Performance in World Music Series)
