Hello to all Isaiah's Fans. Sorry we took so long to get a new video out. We have been busy with so many other projects in our life here in West Africa. Isaiah never took any formal djembe classes untill a couple of weeks ago. This is his 2nd drum class with master drummer Idrissa Kone here in Bamako, Mali. Here are some of the highlights from the 2nd class!

This is Amazing Child Drummers father in this video introduction Rootsy Records and its purpose relating to West African culture and the Djembe.
Isaiah and Abdoulaye are at it again in this small collection of short outtakes. It is so hard to film Isaiah when he is really playing good. Anytime I film him, he cannot play as good as before the camera was on.

"When I miss my grandsons I enjoy watching this video."This is portion of video the boy's grandmother received from her son when they left the US.
This song was written & performed by a good friend of mine.(Brooklantern) It's about a goal that was never achieved; and an idea that never saw the light of day; a dream lost... It's about what "could have been", and also about seeing one's worth only as others judge it, and the fear of growing old without said recognition. But sometimes, there is gold lying at our feet. We just fail to recognize it... I hope that Wayne - a good friend of mine - accepts this offering as my sincere apology, which I have never been able to give to him in person. I am sorry Wayne, for all the misunderstandings; and for the fact that I never strove as much as you knew that I could.
Here's a song about doing what is 'right' for oneself, and not just going along with the status quo... Why, you might ask? Because life is short, and could end at any time...
