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[...]

When Peter Gabriel started his Real World label back in 1989, Tabu Ley Rochereau did this studio/live performance for him. It was done in one evening at the Real World studios, Wiltshire, England. The album contains hi-lites from Rochereau's previous 20 years of career. Get it and spread it .. Babeti Soukous, Wiki Rochereau 01[...]

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:[...]

Lately we've seen various records with Tabu Ley Rochereau. Some live, some studio, one way or the other, Rochereau's music and sublime singing always find a happy listening ear. The double album we have for you today is a splendid one. The greatest singers and instrumentalists were brought together for this 1980 recording. It sounds[...]

Yet another record in the 'african 360.000' series that was left unposted. Le Seigneur Rochereau à l'Olympia vol. 1 was posted on october 4, 2011. Today we finally have volume two. Once again it concerns a fake live album, the live sounds are mixed in afterwards. Still, a document not to be missed. It contains[...]

This is supposed to be a live recording, however, I strongly suspect the live sounds are assembled over studio recordings. What do you think ? Dit zijn live opnamen volgens de informatie op de plaat. Ik heb echter sterk de indruk dat de live geluiden over studio opnamen zijn gemonteerd, wat denk jij ? 1978.[...]

De nummers Mazé en Mr. Malonga stonden ook reeds op deze plaat van Rochereau, uit 1982 en op Disco Stock. Vandaag dus dit album op Editions Vévé International welke twee andere nummers bevat dan voornoemde elpee.De geluidskwaliteit is buitengewoon. Haal binnen, luister en deel weer met je vrienden .. The numbers Mazé and Mr. Malonga[...]

Het was in oktober 2011 dat ik Rochereau à l'Olympia heb geplaatst. Het viel me toen al op dat de zogenaamde live elpee in feite een studio opname betrof waar later publiek gejoel en applaus tussen was gemixed. Een deel van de nummers die op deze plaat stonden komen eigenlijk van de epee die we[...]

Goeiemorgen, dit is er weer zo een. Langzaam zijn we de achterstand aan het inlopen en wordt de 'african 360.000' collectie steeds competer. Hier is nummer 141, er wachten er hier nog enkelen maar de spoeling wordt dunner. Als ik me niet vergis horen we niet alleen een jonge Pascal Rochereau maar ook Docteur Nico[...]

Goeiemorgen groevers, voor dat we doorschakelen naar andere stromingen nog eentje dan. Dit is nummer 161 in de african serie. Je ziet het al, liedjes uit 1963 van Nico, Rochereau, Dechaud en Mizele. Ik weet niet zo goed wat ik er verder over moet zeggen behalve dat ik zeker weet dat je ze niet zou[...]

Tomorrow we'll already live the shortest day of the year in this part of the world. Winter begins officially but we'll gain a couple of minutes of light every day again and that's very nice. Also very nice is today's post, Rochereau à Abidjan Vol. III gets its turn and that completes the three volumes.[...]

Our blogfriend from the first minute Fried already told us, volume II opens with another great song by Kiesse Diambu, named 'Zuwa te'. Thank you Fried and nice to hear. As said we're working towards volume three so listen to this volume two first. Another great piece of Congolese musical history. Get it & spread[...]
