  3. Nice show David, and many thanks for the Bokelo track - it was a good choice.
    That Kiesse Diambu LP's a good 'un isn't it; I have a copy of it but mine looks (and sounds) like the previous owner decided to use it as a doormat. But, on the plus side, he's done some rather nice crayoning on it as well. Like you do.
    Anyway, I notice that you haven't played "Epitaphe" off it yet - that one's a belter. It sounds like a bit of a day out for whoever was in Empire Bakuba at the time.

    Oh, and by the way, my Bongo Wende list is coming on in leaps and bounds.

  4. Dave, I also love the Epitaph song. And it's shorter. LOL. I bought my copy new in the day. Every time I play it it's like hearing it for the first time. Does not get old.
