Ambiance Congo for August 29, 2010

WELCOME TO AMBIANCE CONGO!
This time I wanted to add a tribute to the great Dindo Yogo, but I had no idea I'd get so far into his groove. I was not really prepped to do a "best of Dindo Yogo" program, so I did miss playing some favorite songs from some favorite albums. If you'd like to hear more, please do let me know.
But.. we started off with an extraordinary song from an extraordinary new CD compilation.
The 0riginal 1955-56 recordings of Franco... in his teens, friends. Highly recommended CD!!!
Check out this guitar song at age what? 17?
And went from there.
Here are a few album covers from this edition of Ambiance Congo.

EVERY TIME: You are invited to download a copy of the program.

Ambiance Congo for August 15, 2010

Welcome!

I hope that you'll enjoy this edition of Ambiance Congo.Please feel free to comment on the program or the songs or to make a request for a future show.

This week, I was reminded that it has been three years since the passing of Madilu Bialu, three years that we miss the voice of the great Madilu System.

So we start out with three songs by with Madilu. One from his often requested Pouvoir album, his most famous duet with Franco and one from his first band, Bakuba Mayopi.

After that I offer a number of classics and songs from some of the new CDs out there.

To give you an idea of what you will hear, here are a few album covers from this edition of Ambiance Congo.

You are invited to download a copy of the program here:

Ambiance Congo for August 1, 2010

Welcome to Ambiance Congo!
This time I had the honor of filling a good number of your requests. Not surprising to notice, all of these requests were for older music.
Thrown in are a few of my own choices and songs from a couple of the better new releases that I've received as well.
As a rule, your requests and suggestions always make for better programs and this one is no exception to that rule! Play it often, play it loud!

Many requests for songs on Ambiance Congo are submitted via English language African music forums.
Check the posts on these forums and check out the forums themselves.
