La Zaïkomania
l’Amour du Travail Bien Fait
Bono Music 1989

Zaïkomania, front

Bebe & Marius

Another group coming forth from Zaïko Langa-Langa is this one.
La Zaïkomania made this album in 1989. Recorded in Verckys’
24 track studio in Kinshasa, it sounds fresh as if recorded only
yesterday. Zangilu Popolipo’s guitar and the young voices of
Bebe and marius make this lp a true joy to listen to. Better get
it and give it a couple of spins, I’m quite sure you’ll agree..

tracks;

01 – Olasi
02 – Wadeni
03 – Lutonzol
04 – Pajora

  1. Delightful stuff, which is pretty much true of all the Zaiko-Zaiko spinoffs I’ve heard. And with Verckys, you’re sure of good sound and great balance between instruments and voices. How much of that is true of other Francophone African recordings in the 1970s and 1980s?

        • Don’t know why I wrote Zaiko-Zaiko a few days ago. Must have been when I was taking pain meds for my neck. :\

          Moos, it’s fair to say that you have the most comprehensive and excellent site dedicated to highlife on the Web, bar none. All of us regulars appreciate that. And the fact that you reworked the site to cease relying on outside providers who can cancel downloads for no good reason, speaks to your dedication.

          This isn’t flattery. It’s simple fact.
