Ambiance Congo: January 29, 2012

WELCOME!
I've been listening to a lot of '80s & 90s music of late and I thought I'd share some songs I've been enjoying from that era. I hope you'll enjoy some of the selections presented here today.
Thanks for your requests! One request I've chosen to play is from the 70s and another from 2008, but these songs add variety and flavor to the program.
This is music with SEBENE!!!! Enjoy!
Here are some album covers.

Ambiance Congo: January 15, 2012

Welcome!

This past week has been a very festive and very busy time for me, and I knew I'd have to put together a program on site and on air with no preparation. Thanks to requests and suggestions from forum members at Vibes D'Afrique and Africambiance (please visit them via links on this page), I was able to present a wonderful line up of songs for your enjoyment as well as my own! I asked for help with ideas for a celebration and our friends came through with flying colors. I plan to play the copy of this mix at home tomorrow as I celebrate my 58th birthday, so my sincere thanks go out to to everyone who helped out!
Here are some covers from a few albums.

Ambiance Congo: January 1, 2012

Happy New Year!
This program, broadcast on New Year's day, 2012 marks the beginning of the seventh year for Ambiance Congo on WRIR in Richmond, Virginia USA. We start off with an appropriate song, requested by our friend Shad (aka Soukousman), called 7 ANS by Sec Bidens.
Your requests for music by Master Mwana Congo, Youlou Mabiala, Viva La Musica, Lubumbashi Stars and more add to the variety and quality of today's selections. Many thanks to everyone who requested songs for the show!
Just for fun and to illustrate how much variety and quality there is to be found in Congolese music, I've thrown in three very different songs with the same title.
Here are some album covers from the first program of 2012.

You are invited to download the program here:
