le Likembé Geant, direction Nkouba André,Sonafric 50052, 1977
I gave you one number on the first ‘Congo, Tours de Force’
compilation. The likembé geant or ‘kisansi’ is an instrument,
used to accompany the telling of legends, at night, by the
fireside. That’s what the backsleeve tells us. This group, led
by Nkouba André or Kouran, brings us some swell songs.
I found a very short but nice youtube film, not this group,
but fun to watch. enjoy.
tracks;
1 Bouyala bua kunguna
2 Bika nzanga
3 Marceline
4 Longo luafua
5 Ndandua buyala
6 M’bongo n’kuyu
7 Weta weta
8 Nsuka ya muntu

The tracks in this LP represent the true music of the soul. I highly recommend it for bedtime listening. Few are likely to be awake by the time track 4 starts playing. Thanks Moos for posting this sample of some very rare music.
