Musicians.  He emerges from the turmoil of civil strife with a high tempo
that reflects in his music making it both philosophical and dance hall.  It
is a combination of both message and function that makes De Great Steady
Bongo a star musician, performer and entertainer.  Once you see and listen
to him, he will be hard to miss.  For a preview of Bongo's popular music
style, stay tuned with Madison's owned, community support, W O R T.  The

STEADY BONGO with his cultural heroes, will provide the latest dance hall
craze from the continent again, right here in Madison. If you get the fever,
