Dalienst et Franco's TPOK Jazz - Bina Na Ngai Na Respect

The translation of the title is "Dance with me with respect". I can't play this on my stereo any longer because the neighbour always flies round demanding I turn the volume down - wait till 2'08 and you'll see why. Only thing is, this version is 8'14 short!! This is one of many great TPOK Jazz clips that rahndi posted or linked to - thanks rahndi! - http://www.youtube.com/user/rahndi

A lot of these shows were recorded in the television studios in Kinshasa and you were not allowed to get up and dance.I saw Choc Stars there and can you imagine how hard it was not to dance.

@zambia50 It must have been fantastic to have been able to see these shows live in the studio!

I wish Dalienst was better known - this is truly a classic.

@Blaise2870 il n'est pas question ici de business ou pas, mais de qualité de la musi.. ce ne sont pas les " mabanga" qui font d'un musicien ce qu'il est mais sa capacité à faire ou non de la bonne musique. Ceux d'aujourd'hui m^me s'ils semblent se contenter de ces cris; à la longue, ils n'en vivront pas, et leur musique disparaitra aussi vite. Alors que la musique de ces vieux comme tu dis est intemporelle... le plus important pour nos musiciens c'est qu'ils se fassent enregistrer à la SACEM..

This is one of the best works of the group ei yawa, funtastic!

[JonesDolla]

If you are a Luo, then at some point you probably sang after nyambula: "nyathina onge pacho". Wish we had the lyrics and their correct translation. Till them, I'm enjoying the music and using my own made-up lyrics as necessary.

[JonesDolla]

I wish I was in the audience. They are just sitting there, like blocks. What a waste!

[kigumba777]

Nostalgia par excellence!
