Take a look at this cover. Is it a very skinny young man we see ? Or is it a woman with beard ? What do you think ?
hum, I prefer the fur of the women of your Christmas compilation. By the way is there any possibility to get the email or the phone number of those wonderful creatures ?

Thank you very much for all the 100s of best african and carribean music that you’ve given back to the memory of the world! I have collected all. To open your blog is the first what I do if I come home from work (after the kiss for my wife) and I’m always surprised.
Happy New Year to You and all Global Groovers

Strangely, this compilation was originally released in 1960s in the UK, on the Parlophone label, entitled ‘Bridge Over The Congo’, which presumably explains the odd title of this version. It’s one of the very rarest UK African LPs. I got a cassette dub of it many years ago, missing the last track, so I am absolutely delighted to get this rip with its superior sound and full complement of tracks. Many thanks, as always,and Happy New Year.
