00:02 Nostalgie (Josky Kiambukuta) Vocals: Josky Kiambukuta (also on maracas), Djo Mpoyi, Ndombe Opetum, Lukoki Diatho (or Lola Chécain).
10:03 Princesse Kiku (Franco) Vocals: Franco with Ntesa Dalienst & Wuta Mayi. (The version of this song that was released on CD, although minutes shorter, is an entirely different take. Usually, they just cut a few minutes off the released versions. Kiku is the only exception I am aware of.) Nostalgie and this longer version of Kiku were also released on cd, but taken from vinyl and in mono sound, just another shabby job therefore.
24:08 Tantine (Ntesa Dalienst) Vocals: Ntesa Dalienst, Aimé Kiwakana, Lokombe Ntal, Madilu System. No horns!!
34:13 Mawe (Ndombe Opetum) Vocals: Ndombe Opetum, Djo Mpoyi, Josky Kiambukuta, Lola Chécain. Josky and Ndombe and/or Lola on maracas.
Mi-solo on all songs: Franco. Solo guitar: Papa Noel, Gerry Dialungana; Rhythm guitar: Gégé Mangaya, perhaps Makosso on Nostalgie; Bass: Mpudi Decca (perhaps Flavien Makabi on some); Drums: Ntoya; Percussion: Dessoin. Horn arrangements probably by Dele Pedro.

Cet album me rappelle la fin de mes etudes secondaires. Je venais de decrocher mon diplome d'Etat qui du reste m'a permit de m'inscrire a L'Universite de Kinshasa et de quitter ma famillle a Isiro. Des moments inoubliables.
