Ambiance Congo: November 29, 2015

Welcome!
Today we start with two giants, on the anniversary  of their passing. The late great Tabu Ley and the late great Pepe Kalle.
I have included songs by others that may remind us of the wonderful influence they had upon modern Congolese music.

Ambiance Congo: November 1, 2015

Welcome to Ambiance Congo radio program.
I always find joy in this music, no matter what the circumstances.
I missed posting for the last program (October 18, 2015), but you can listen to that program (as well as this one) at Radio4all. It was recorded during WRIR's Fall Fund Drive, so I tried to play music that would spark some activity in the donation department.
Find them both here: http://www.radio4all.net/index.php/series/Ambiance+Congo

But let's focus on this edition!
I brought another big crate of records and discs along with no idea what was going to spin...and it came out great. I've been checking a lot of my older albums to see what songs I've missed over the past 10 years at WRIR. Some of these songs, such as those sung by M'Bilia Bel and M'Pongo Love, come from those older records.

Hope you'll enjoy, leave a request or comment.
Here's a zip file with the show and the trackist.

Ambiance Congo: October 4, 2015

Welcome once again to Ambiance Congo radio program.
Starting off with a song in tribute to the late Fidele Zizi, an appropriate song!
Next we have a great track from Sam Mangwana to keep you going. I love those Eddy'Son albums. Someday, just for fun, I should do a program of just Eddy Gustave productions. That'd feature some great music and we'd get to hear lots and lots of guitar by Master Mwana Congo.
And while on the subject of guitar, there's a little sequence in this week's program where you'll get to hear a few tracks from solo albums by a few of the modern greats such as Rigo Star, Beniko Popolipo and Manuaku Waku.
I hope you will enjoy the program and add your requests for future shows.
