Looking for music that features congas, timbalis,

malo(first two rival santana), mandrill(any),war(eric burdon declares war,the world is a ghetto),traffic(low spark, live at the canteen, sheila e.(the glamourous life)

I second the Steve Tibbets recommendation, especially the early stuff when he was paired with Marc Anderson. Try Northern Song and Safe Journey.

Check out the Mapleshade label. They have excellent congas and pecussions that will blow your socks off. Really.

Thanks to all for the suggestions!

Try Don Tiki. The second CD "Skinny Dip" has more polynesian percussian than the first "The Forbidden Tales of Don Tiki" but the first album is a better offering. In my system it is of reference quality.
