African Soukous Jam in Kampala, Uganda

Every Monday night in Kampala, musicians from around the city get together to jam in the court area outside the National Theater.
Here My band and I got to jam with John Bash..one of the top Soukous guitar players in the city...
He is originally from the DRC.
He is the one playing the solo guitar part
In the 2nd half of the Sebene...I lead in the rhythm guitar dance breakdown..

John Mpandi or John Bash?, this music is fantastic - if it's this good in Uganda, I'll be flying out to Kampala very soon, been a fan of Soukous for 12 years and MUST go to Africa to see it played live! Thanks for posting

Is this John Mpandi or John Bash's music all as fantastically rhythmical as this? I love this and wish I could visit Uganda, if live Soukous is this good I might be flying out there soon:)
