I've seen musicians occasionally posting the original charts they used when classic songs were written. Very cool IMO and I'll start with a percussion chart written by Yoel Paez when Paulo FG's group was first putting together the classic timba anthem "De La Habana". Here is what he said bout it.
"For lovers of the TIMBA from the 90s, I just found in my trunk of memories, the first quick guide of Drums / Timbal, which I did in the rehearsal, when we first put together the song "DE LA HABANA" best known as "LA ESPECULACIÓN DE LA HABANA"
We did everything in our particular laboratory of rhythm, the Cine Arenal [the theater where they rehearsed], our director Juan Manuel Ceruto gave us a little time for each section to square away their things, then countdown and play !!!!!
This song has been one of the most listened to and danced to in Cuba and it is recorded in the CD "Con la conciencia tranquila" by Paulo Fg y Su Elite, I hope it will help those who love this genre."
In case you don't know the song, here it is so you can follow along with the chart LOL
