Sammy Massa – Gare a Toi Mon Ami
Disc’Orient 1981

sammy-massa-front

We heard him on one of Syran M’Benza’s albums but this is the first one
we have under this name. A little disturbance at the beginning of the album
and a little further on. With Dizzy Mandjeku, Syran M’benza, Lokassa ya
Mbongo, Bopol, and many more. Recorded in Côte d’Ivoire. I think Sammy
Massa is the same as Bumba Massa, can anyone confirm ? The web is not
very clear about it..

We hoorden hem al op een van Syram M’benza’s platen, dit is de eerste
echter die we hebben onder deze naam. Hij kraakt ietsje aan het begin
en ook wat verderop. Met Dizzy Mandjeku, Syran M’benza, Lokassa
ya Mbongo, Bopol, en vele anderen. Opgenomen in Côte d’Ivoire. Volgens
mij is Sammy Massa dezelfde als Bumba Massa, kan iemand dit bevestigen ?
Het web is hierover niet geheel duidelijk..

    Ok, then another thing. You state the recording being from Cote d’Ivoire. I think the record is, as stated on the bottom of the picture, but the recording (studio) is Lomé Togo, as can be seen on the left.
    Thank you for so much good music

      I guess you’re right, it is on a label from Abidjan but apparently not recorded there..

    Sounds exactly like Bumba Massa. Good call.
