Until now it remained on the shelf, but because I posted vol. 1 yesterday, I'm bringing this vol. 9 today. Let's say it is for your sunday prayers. Personnally I'm no fan of re- ligious songs. However, I am a fan of the works of Pamelo Mounk'a. Part from the two religious songs there are[...]

On special request by blog friend Harris, today we have this 1986 album with Pamelo Mounk'a and Les Bantous de la Capitale. The record is in mint condition and sounds just perfect. We are lucky having it. It's like it's been recorded yesterday, enjoy.. Op speciaal verzoek van blog vriend Harris hebben we vandaag deze[...]

In a reaction on the previous post, Mouhamadou asked me if I have this LP with Les Redoutables and Pamelo Mounk'a. It is supposedly the last album that Docteur Nico did before his passing. I find no mentioning him on the sleeve of the LP.. Anyone to shine a light on this matter .. ?[...]

Carnaval is over and I didn't post any Brazilian music, you are right Fabricio, it has been a while. Tried to make one but I failed and now it's determined to wait some more. Soon come. Today it is time for Congolese treasure. I don't know a year on this one, no personnel, it doesn't[...]

This month's number of posts is extremely low. My work was demanding most of my time but that's slowly changing now. Tonight I finally found some and put it to use for y'all. Pamelo Mounk'a appears here with Les Bantous de la Capitale. I really can't tell you anything of value about it but listening[...]

Former member of Les Bantous de la Capitale, from the Brazzaside of the river, established a fan bas in Abidjan, on this LP together with Afrisa, Rochereau and Mbilia Bel. tracks; 1 Cynthia 2 On ne meurt qu'une fois 3 Le travail toujours le travail 4 Adjoussou d'Abidjan

Another fine Eddy'Son production from 1983. Congolese singer Pamelo Mounk'a is back with this Paris recording. What can I say ? Eddy Gustave always seemed to create the perfect atmosphere with the perfect musicians. It all comes natural here, it's only half an hour of music but don't miss it, Class A material. A tiny[...]

Here's another album by Pamelo Mounk'a, he used to be a singer with Les Bantous de la Capitale. With two guitar greats, Master Mwana Congo and Pablo Lubadika Porthos. Who knows the exact year on this one ? Can you tell us ? tracks; 1 l'Argent apelle l'argent 2 Oyourou nyoumba 3 Amour de Nombakele[...]

On Eddy'Son Consortium Mondial, the release stream must have been endless during the 80's. I keep finding records there, such as this one by Pamelo Mounk'a. Again recorded with guys like Master Mwana and Pablo Lubadika Porthos and ofcourse Eddy Gustave played his part. Enjoy this Congolese music from 1982. Great stuff. tracks; 1 Ce[...]

Eindelijk zijn we van die vervelende Captcha af, geniet nu van de directe download .. Uit 1981 komt dit album met 'le Grand Edo', Edouard Canga. Hij en zijn band brengen een potpourri aan songs uit de jaren 40 en 50, nummers van Jean Serge Essous, Joseph Kabasele, Camille Feruzi, Pamelo Mounk'a, Rosario Germano en[...]

His style changed quite a bit over the years. I think this 1991 album with Rochereau is maybe not his very best work. Considering the man's complete oeuvre we owe him to listen to all his work. Face a Face, made in the nineties, sounds like the nineties. Synthesized and quite modern we see a[...]

Always a pleasure to listen to the legendary 'Les Bantous de la Capitale'. We find a number of great musicians on this album, Pamelo Mounk'a, Kosmos Moutouari, Nino Malapet, jean Serge Essous, Celestin N'Kouka, Samba Mascot & Passy Mermans among others. Despite the 'Ave Maria' I think it is a decent record. Quite some albums[...]

One of the most recorded artists Congo has brought forth was without doubt Pascal Tabu Ley Rochereau. We keep finding records that weren't here yet. Take this volume 7, another treasure with Tabu ley & Mbilia Bel doing some wonderful songs. Find a load of his work below and enjoy listening .. Wikipedia Discogs Rythme:[...]

He was one of the most important and influential Congolese composers, singer and bandleader. Pascal-Emmanuel Sinamoyi Tabu, better known as Tabu Ley Rochereau, passed by here on more than one occasion. Today we find this 1984 album which was recorded in America, USA and Canada. Always joyful listening .. Hij was een van de belangrijkste[...]
