Congo Revolution - Revolutionary and Evolutionary Sounds from the Two Congos 1955-62
Soul Jazz Records presents
This stunning new release on Soul Jazz Records looks at the explosion of music that came out of the Congo in the years leading up to independence in 1960. Congolese rumba, a wild combination of African, Jazz and Latin influences, created future stars of its now legendary creators - Franco, Grand Kalle, Tabu Ley, Dr. Nico, Papa Wemba - and all feature here in their ground-breaking early groups such as O. K. Jazz, Brazzos, Rock-A-Mambo, African Jazz and The Beguen Band.
