    "comment": "Highly influenced by the work of Paul Buff, Art Laboe and Preston Epps, The Incredible Bongo Band was a faux group (essentially just a studio project), formed by Pride record executive Michael Viner to create theme music for the film \"The Thing With Two Heads\". \n\nFollowing the success of the project, Viner then used MGM studio downtime to record funk-influenced covers of hits, using pick-up musicians. Although the \"group\" never existed as a true band, a team of individuals was assembled for a publicity photo. - https://www.discogs.com/artist/636900-The-Incredible-Bongo-Band\n\nhttps://incrediblebongoband.bandcamp.com/track/bongolia-2",
