Franco et l'Orchestre OK Jazz -
Les Merveilles du Passé,
african 360.144, 1984



















Hello, good day to you groovers. What do we have for you
today ? Another album by le Grand Maître Franco with 10
songs. The lp was released in 1984 but contains songs
from way earlier. Some of the tracks appeared on other
collectors, some didn't. How do you like that picture of
Franco, mostly we see him much older, nice. Another
piece in the huge Franco Luambo Makiadi puzzle.

tracks;

1 Oye, oye, oye
2 Tomesani zonga coco
3 Tokeyi kobina calypso
4 Kenge okeyi elaka te
5 Nakolela mama azonga
6 Aya la' mode
7 Bana ages
8 Oh Katharina !
9 Noboyi libala bambando
10 Nako bala oyo motema alingi

although I liked to listen to Franco's music for something like 20 years, now, thanks to rediscovering him through you, is the time when i really got addicted.

This is a great masterpiece when Franco was in his 20s. Even then Franco showed his greatness and he showed how legendary he was. Franco showed his greatness with all the songs. Franco is the greatest that ever lived.
