Ambiance Congo: January 24, 2016

WELCOME!
I have been waiting for a some new music to arrive, but the snowfall here in Richmond has kept the mail carriers at home...or at least away from my home!
So in Part A, I look back today at some music from the 1995-2005 decade. That was some really good music, as I hope you will agree. It's also modern music that was recorded before this program began in 2005. I've played a number of tracks from these discs on this program before, but not the ones chosen today.
One of my favorites for today is from a Congolese band residing and working in the Netherlands, Solo N'Dinga & Alliance Nord-Sud. The reack here is a killer that you just can't play loudly enough! Go ahead and try!
In Part B, we go back in time farther on a number of tracks for some great music by Verckys et le Veve, Franco et Le T.P. O.K. Jazz and more.

Give a listen, let me know what you think.

Ambiance Congo: January 10, 2016


Welcome and thank you for your requests and comments!
Here we go with lots of music from the 1980s though about 2010, but there are a couple of newer tracks. You'll hear a number of albums featuring artists like Reddy Amisi and Josky Kiambukuta in front of groups like Viva la Musica and T.P. O.K. Jazz. You'll hear solo albums by others like Doudou Copa and Ferre Gola who have left other groups like Extra Musica, Quartier Latin and Wenge Musica Maison Mere to start their own bands and make their own music. We even have an album from Pamelo Mounk'a who has returned to Les Bantous de la Capitale to record some songs from his solo career.
Sounds like a mixed bag of some wonderful music, doesn't it? I hope you'll enjoy!
