THE INCREDIBLE BONGO BAND
‘Bongo Rock’
Description: In 1972, Michael Viner Was An Executive At MGM Records. Asked To Put Together Some Music For The Soundtrack Of An Upcoming B-Movie Horror Film, The Thing With Two Heads, He Called On Songwriter Perry Botkin, Jr., And The Two Of Them Whipped Up A Pair Of Songs Called "Bongo Rock" And "Bongolia." By The Middle Of 1973, The Songs, Attributed To The Incredible Bongo Band, Began To Take Off, Both In Canada And On The U.S. R&B And Pop Charts, So Viner And Botkin Took The Concept To The Next Obvious Level And Cut An Album, Also Titled Bongo Rock. Successful Enough To Scrape Into The Bottom Of The Billboard Album Chart, The Pair Put Together The Return Of The Incredible Bongo Band In 1974 Before Fizzling Out. There Are Some Other Pertinent Details Worth Knowing, For Example, That Jim Gordon, Of Derek & The Dominos Fame, Was One Of The Key Drummers On The Project, And That Ringo Starr Supposedly Stopped In To Bang Out A Few Beats. But Some Of The Best Stuff Happened Long After The Demise Of The IBB, When Early Hip-Hop Djs Such As Kool DJ Herc And Grandmaster Flash, And Then The Sugarhill Gang, Massive Attack And Others, Discovered The Incredible Bongo Band's Recordings And Began Using Samples From Them. What Started As A Tossed-Off Filler Session For A Crummy Flick Took On A Life Of Its Own.
