21:07 Monzo (Josky Kiambukuta) Singers Josky, Sam, Boyibanda.

34:16 Muana Oyo (Luambo Makiadi) Vocals: Luambo Makiadi, Youlou Mabiala, Michèl Boyibanda, Lola Chécain.

38:11 Mambu Ma Miondo (Luambo Makiadi) Franco sings with Youlou, Michèl, Lola, Josky.

Guitars: Franco & Simaro, bass: Decca, percussion: Dessoin, kit: Ntoya. Horn arrangements Dele Pedro, also on saxes: Isaac, Rondot.

Technical note: Mabele was taken from a single and Kinsiona and Luka Mobali Moko were taken from Kenyan LP's because they simply had more clarity, transparency and definition in the sound on these releases than on the French pressing of this LP.

By the way: The title of the fifth song is wrong on this LP and any cd release after that, it's Mbemba, not Mbenda: visible on the sleeve in this clip: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2vt5hFW8ToE but also clear from an interview with Simaro (unpublished).
