    Or, now I guess I’ll have to retire to listen for the rest of my worldly presence. Rock on & all the best from Berlin

    Merengue President, sure, but Mamu Wua Mpoy is a surprise that makes it all worthwhile.

    Excellent posting. Been looking for this for years now. I think it is a 1962 album. Pls check again. In the meantime, do you perchance have Yokolo Part 2 by African Fiesta Sukisa? Yokolo Part 1 is available, but the Part 2 is extremely rare.
