Orchestre Lomeka,Pathé Marconi / EMI 1977
Today’s post concerns a rare album from Congo, or Zaïre in those days.
I didn’t find any information about these guys, the group is ungoogleable.
Just two names appear on the backsleeve, ‘Fundu’ and ‘Tounta Albert’.
I do know that I like this album very much, sweet guitarsounds and
vocal harmony. If you read the titles and see track #6, EMI, one gets the
impression this might be the first album they recorded. They must have been
grateful and so are we ! Enjoy this rare beauty by Orchestre Lomeka.

Fortunately un-googleable doesn’t mean it is un-listenable, far from it. Fantastic.
