Ambiance Congo / The Other Black Music presents:
Ambiance Congo: November 5, 2023 3:00-5:00 PM
WELCOME!
All of the albums shown here have someone in common.
The extremely prolific, highly regarded and sought after Congolese master guitarist, composer and arranger Rigobert Bamundele, aka Rigo Star, contributed in ways large and small to every one of them.
I’ll be playing ALL music today featuring his work from some these LP albums and from CD albums that were never released on LP.
If you’re seeing this post and would like to pick out an album from this pile on the floor, please let me know in the comments.

Did you want to hear Gentil Garcon or Mon Coeur Saigne from Benz-Petrole?
To end the programm my requested songs for the next week were Edo Ndinga (Dagoson) and Mon cœur saigné gentil (Benz Petrole).
Mawa ya biso moko we can say. Rigobert played excellent
Lol, late Def remixed this song later as Mboka ya Diogène.
Rigo also participated on Fally’s album A2BM and several albums of Koffi until Prisonniers Dorments (Loi was his last album where he played guitars but it got deleted).
About Maman Angebi. Manda Chante was also present.
Most Viva Guys invited Rigo on several albums
Great version on his Maman Angebi live album. But that is with Casa do Canto.
Reddy even performed Zakina in almost every concert until this day.
Oh yeah. Zakina became big hits until this day.
18e anniversaire
But first, i decided to pick the one of Viva La Musica after seeing this picture. But i don’t remember which song it was, because Reddy sings really different in the past.
Another question can you play Gentil from Benz Petrole and Edo Ndinga from Dagoson very soon after this ?
Also his compilation album Formule 1 with Koffi, Emeneya, Pepe Kalle, Madilu and others were excellent. He’s a big master. Paix a ton âme Vieux Bamundele.
Bonjour David Noyes. So sad that he passed away, he contributed alot. My favorite album with him were those Reddy Amisi was releasing: Prudence, Ziggy and Compteur a zero (he only played on Assistant Social and Mawe, because the rest were recorded in Kinshasa with Reddy’s band Casa).
