Tuti (Wuta Mayi) - T.P. O.K. Jazz 1981

Vocals: Wuta Mayi, Ntesa Dalienst, Lola Chécain.

The picture of Franco does not mean to imply Franco plays here, because he does not. It's just the sleeve of the original LP this song first appeared on. The mi-solo is played by Thierry Mantuika.

After the song, Ntesa Dalienst explains the lyric a bit.

I believe that the other solo was played by Dizzy Madjekou, the variations sound dizzy.

@TheAnwar1982 Well, people believe ridiculous things sometimes, they believe there is a god, they believe Greece will pay their debts. Don't listen for Dizzy in OKJ recordings before 1986.

@AboubacarSiddikh Hahaha, you just made my night by mentioning Greece,because that is where I am,and that debt we will never pay lol.Thanks for info ,i now remember Dizzy joined Franco very late.Let me take another guess,Gerry Dialungana.i have been trying to guess the string arrangements here,every time i play this song.

[AboubacarSiddikh]

@TheAnwar1982 Gerry is one possiblility, Papa Noel another. I would put my money on Gerry, if the tax office had not taken it all (guess where THAT went).

This was a great song. Good voices and instrument arrangement. This song was played at Nyayo stadium when Franco and TP ok Jazz visited Kenya.....

This music will never die. It will continue being listened to for decades.
