This is a confirmation that the original creation is always the best... Nguashi Ntimbo's Shauri Yako is a masterpiece of art

One of the greatest songs of all times!!!

I would pay a lot for a good re-issue on CD!!! Where are Stern's and all those reissue labels ...

That this is the original should help those who insist that Mazembe was the first to do the song. Nguasi Ntimbo had to go to Nairobi to sort out the copy right issues when Mazembe did a cover for the song. Mazembe apparently never did a successful album after aping festival du zaire.

Thank you very much for posting this superb track. I have been looking for a CD of it for years as all I had up to now was a crackling, poorly recorded cassette. Thanks again!
