Johnny Bokelo – Sakina Shakara Music 1982

Goodmorning, it’s been a few weeks but here we are with the
next Congolese lp. I’ve been out on a short trip to Istanbul.
If you get the chance to visit that wonderful city, take it, it’s
beautiful and offers a variety of scenes you really should see.
Something else, yesterday was International Recordstore
Day and we were lucky. The weather was really good and
I got the first chance to play in the open air with my mobile
soundsystem. At my friends recordstore ”t Oor’ here in my
hometown several groups did a short gig and I took care of
filling in the gaps. We had a lovely afternoon and the overall
feeling was one of happiness. The group you see was play-
ing all sorts of party sounds based on reggae, ska and other
feelgood styles with funny Dutch lyrics, everybody loved it.
Their name is ‘Goeiemiddag’. ( Dutch for good afternoon )
The lp I am posting today is one I coincidentally found
last week when checking out an Amsterdam second
hand store, take it while you can, get it & spread it..
