Verckys presente Langa-Langa Stars
volumes 1 & 2, Editions VéVé
International EVVI 16D & EVVI 17D

Langa-Langa Stars, front

Today’s post concerns an album of which we had the first volume
already. Somehow I can’t seem to find it back however, it looks like
another post that has disappeared over the years, very strange. No
worries about it because off course we’ve got it stored safely here
at the home of the Global Groove. So, here are volumes one and
two of Langa-Langa Stars on Editions VéVé International. They
belong to the finest of Congolese records in our collection,
get them and spread them as usual..

tracks vol. 1;

01 – Avenir mbeya mbeya
02 – Tantine betena
03 – Autopsie beloti
04 – Mase femme africaine

    Thanks, Moos. Any idea of a date on that? Other than presumably sometime in the 1970s?

          They’re both released in 1981. The albums that were released in 1982 were Likombe, Dalida, and Soleil. Guitar work is Nene Tchakou, Roxy Tshimpaka, and Beniko Popolipo. Beniko and Dindo Yogo went to Zaiko Langa Langa in 1983 and Roxy joined Choc Stars in late 1983.

    Do you have more Congolese music I’m such a big fan of Congolese music.

      ..a Congolese record every once in a while,
      but it’s variety that keeps this site going.
      I don’t want steak every day, fish, fruits,
      vegetables and lambchops too..

    Thank you for having added volume 1 but in 128 kbps ?! It is at least surprising !

    • Moos 7 August 2015 at 07:39 - Reply

      ..that is surprising indeed, I don’t understand how that happened muself..
