More great work by Master Mwana Congo






















On the last edition of Ambiance Congo, we got to hear the title track from this album, a record
that I referred to as a "desert island" LP, or one I'd choose to have with me on a deserted island.
Here's another track, "L'EAU C'EST LA VIE". Just listen as Master Mwana Congo's fluid guitar
proves that "Water Is Life". Bassist Du Soleil plays one of those wonderful, purely African basslines that is derived from water percussion adding to the liquid sound.
