PELLO AND THE MOZAMBIQUE: A rhythm that galvanized Cuba BY RAFAEL LAM (Special for Granma International) September 25, 2000 IN 1963, Pedro Izquierdo, known as Pello el Afrokán—who recently passed away—created the mozambique, one of the hottest and most debated modern rhythms on the island. In the wake of Eduardo Davidson’s pachanga rage, like a wizard or African griot Pello produced a primitive or more authentic sound of tom-tom and metal drums.
