Ambiance Congo: December 1, 2013

November 30 marked the passing of the last of the great musicians of le Belle Epoque. First Nico, then Franco and now Rochereau. The era ended a long time ago, but the music is still very much alive, just as sweet, just as compelling and just as dear to the millions whose lives these artists have enriched.
In celebration of Tabu Ley, the late Seigneur Tabu Ley Rochereau, I present this edititon of Ambiance Congo.
You are invited to download a copy of the broadcast here, complete with tracklist:

  2. Great selection as a tribute to a great legend. We appreciate your great work. These great songs by Luciana Demingongo in a future program would be greatly appreciated: Adisha, Chateau Rouge and/or Et. Pourtant.

  3. Thanks, Anonymous. Zanzibar by Luciana Demingongo is, in my opinion, one of the better albums to come out in the last couple of years.
    The 3 songs you mention are the only ones I haven't played on this program.
