Les Bantous de la Capitale - Marie Jeanne,
Sonafric 1976



















Some time ago we had an LP by Orchestre Sossa. The brothers Pierre
and Michel Moutouari played in it. Before that they were members of
Orchestre Sinza Kotoko with their other brother, Kosmos Moutouari.
On this album by Les Bantous de la Capitale we hear him perform.
But the main man here was Samba Mascot who wrote most of the
numbers in 1976 for this great band. Enjoy Les Bantous de la Capitale.

Thanks a lot Moss, this is sure a great LP. The arrangement is superb, likewise the production.

And my oh my, I like the whimsical (?) inclusion of track 4 in this collection. Talk about real blues, beautifully played, embedded in this congo music selection. Is it to show their versatility? In any case, I think that decision was great. Thanks again.
