Kikongo was the mother tongue of Franco, singer Ntesa Dalienst, bass player and composer of this Mpudi Decca (miss-spelled on the sleeve) and percussionist Bosuma Dessoin. Franco plays a fierce guitar from 2:45 into the song. HEAR IT!! Until the break it is sung in Lingala, after the break in Kikongo. Mpudi insisted of putting the glasses on before I took the picture. Unfortunately, especially the horns and the choruses sound as if they're being strangled. I don't know what YT is doing to the sound, some songs come out sounding pretty good but this one.... This is a repost in stereo. The first posting of this had had 2705 viewings on deletion. Also, it had 5x5*-ratings and 6 comments: idiofa33 (4 days ago) souvenirs!! ongijo (1 month ago) Mayie Luambo ayie kodi malich miwuoro. mzeiyamwenyewe (2 months ago) chills up my spine...thanx a million for such a fantastic song man. ooh nostalgia is killing inshalla!!! heard this song every morning going to school in Nairobi Jamalanga (2 months ago) Sidikh, you are LEGEND kalidobo (4 months ago) Great music! While in Kenya, I sent greetings to freinds through Radio Uganda and requested Tony Lajany to play funeral song in Luo; instead, he told me he couldn't find a suitable one and played Nda'ya, just off the press!! Loved it since!! Vintage Luambo!! okoths72 (4 months ago) this is a great song it reminds me chritmass in kenya when the economy was good.I had just finished my primary school in the late 80s.
