le Docteur Nico et son Orchestre
l’Afrique Danse No 5, african 360.005, 1969
Tuesday evening,
home late from work, lots of turbulence during the opening of
this week. Then finally relaxed, ripping an LP, throw it up
the digital highway and chill out. Feels good.
Especially with this one, what have we got ?
From 1969, a jewel of an album.
The great Docteur Nico brings it Perfectly
simple or simlpy perfect. Either one works for me.
And to get in the mood already, I borrowed us this
nice video. It comes from fellowblogger Worldservice, check.
tracks;
1 Mokili ya nzambe
2 Sukisa miziki ya lokumu
3 Aime Zonga
4 Julienne importée
5 Bea okei wapi ?
6 Mira
7 Adelina
8 Oluki likambo obangi

superb stuff. the video is great – don’t understand a word the guitarist says but he clearly strikes a chord with the audience and that’s good enough for me

Oh wow – this album is truly magnificent and shows why Nico was “Dieu de la Guitare”. Up there with his finest. The world should hear this guy, one of Africa’s greatest musical geniuses. I’ve run out of superlatives. More please. Many thanks from this Nico fan. By the way I find it hard to believe that this is the only film footage of Nico left – is there any more out there – anywhere??

Moos, this has long been one of my favorite Docteur Nico albums. I am sure that your visitors will enjoy it as much as I have over the years.
I love the video! I’ve never seen that before. Watching it makes me realize that he really loved that look with his blue jacket and white slacks, didn’t he?
