Ambiance Congo: April 29, 2018

Welcome!
I have had a few requests for music from the 60s and 70s, so that is where we start today. Here are a few songs that I particularly like, and they are songs not heard on this program before. They were chosen to compliment each other, so I hope that you enjoy that aspect of the selection.

Part B has a few new songs from 2012 to today, including a request from Minu for Ebony. I'm not convinced that I chose the right song from Defao, though! He has a new single that sounds like it was inspired by l'Afrisa International of Tabu Ley which would have been a much better choice. We'll hear it next time!

Thanks to everyone who makes a request. I always do my best to get your songs or groups played.
