mikeweil Posted March 24, 2020 Report Posted March 24, 2020 What a career - R.I.P. He was one of the guys popping up on countless jazz sessions with conga drums. Quote
Gheorghe Posted March 24, 2020 Report Posted March 24, 2020 What a great loss. He is one of my favourite percussionists. Quote
sidewinder Posted March 24, 2020 Report Posted March 24, 2020 RIP - I like his playing on ‘The Pentagon’. Quote
JSngry Posted March 24, 2020 Author Report Posted March 24, 2020 I still had an image of him as a "younger" person, but 85 is not young anywhere in the world. Not "too old" either! Quote
HutchFan Posted March 24, 2020 Report Posted March 24, 2020 I was sorry to read about this last night. R.I.P. Mantilla always sounded good. Quote
