Regular readers will recall that, during one of the five childhood years I was resident there, the authorities of the Alliance Academy dormitory in Quito, Ecuador held a ritualistic record-burning bonfire. The Christians told me-even had me halfway convinced-that music that did not contain explicit lyrics praising the Christ child was of Satan. You can tell music must be powerful as all fuck just on account of how many institutions and ideologies seek to harness it for their own good and in their own image. The idea that busting moves and beating bongos is what’s going to make you break bad would be funny if so many people all over the world didn’t, in their hearts, still sort of believe it for real. Bongo likes to congo, as in line, and Perez Prado unlocks unknown or lost Latin hips like no one else ever has or will sorry Ricky Martin. He hangs out with us upstairs on the reg, and when he does it is always a very Perez Prado good time. Ever since he could move, Bongo has been shaking his ass. I’ve got a three-year-old nephew living a few floors below me.
