Good music

God gave the rest of the world whatever He gave - technology, money, oil, you name it. And He gave Africa the drum and that's why you can things so deep musically - like Tp Ok jazz. who will ever match them or even come close? I don't see anybody on the horizon. Capitalise on this music before it becomes "extinct" - it is now on the "endangered" list remember!! I am serious. Thanks for doing that thing bro.

Just wonderful! I was only a 2nd grader in 1982, but TPOKJ used to make my day! The guitars and the vocals are just pure witchcraft!

From West Africa, I similarly find the vocals and guitars unique- to me the music is an anthem for the African soul eminating from the Equator.

Deadly deadly...the guitar filler on this one at 0:30, 0:45, 1:01...reminds me of the filler at 1:07, 1:20, 2:28 on 'Youyou' posted by Kindu. Must have been the same guy (sic)! Wonderful songs; I have no regrets for having lived in this world at the present time.

[j1981o]

listen to the tough filler at 1:18-1:45

[babmushe]

Siddikh, which Kabongo are they singing about?Is it the one in the 1974 FIFA World Cup team or is it Eugene Ngoy Kabongo of the 1988 Africa Cup of Nations?

[AboubacarSiddikh]

I have no idea.

[orangekush3]

@mayamba65 I have a feeling its Kabongo from 1974, his music changed a bit toward the end of his career, this is his rumba from the 70's
