Quand j'avais 3 ans maman et moi embarquions dans les remorqueurs de Delmas Vieljeux qui me semblaient énormes à l'époque pour rejoindre papa qui travaillait au chantier "Gourvest", en aval de Ndjolé. Je me rappelle la topographie de ce chantier avec son économat en bordure de l'ogooué où l'on trouvait des produits Européens ( vins espagnols, poissons salés du portugal, etc...). Il y avait même des rails pour le transport du bois. Hommage éternel à Bavon Marie Marie et à vous papa et maman.
Merci pour cette très belle chanson mélancolique et prémonitoire de Bavon Marie marie reprise ici par Luambo et l'OK Jazz. Je n'ai pas connu la période mais j'ai appris à apprécier cette merveille du passé de la musique congolaise.
un des saxophonistes est mon père!!j'aime son saxo,j'aime le saxo en général!!!!cette chanson est reposante!bavon étant son meilleur ami,il est resté triste jusqu'à ce jour!!! il parle de bavon comme si il n'était parti qu'hier!!!le passage saxo,est le souffle de mon père,juste pour votre plaisir
Ruth c'est merveilleux d,avoir mentionner cela à propos de ton père et de Bavon, cela constitue une page de l'histoire musicale de notre Pays la RDC. Tu devrais donner le nom de ton père le fameux saxophoniste pour que son nom soit connu et écris sur la page de l'histoire, ses émotions, son histoire, ses regrets...je t,encourage. le Saxo c,est le seul instrument qui dit vrai, il se joue avec le souffle du cœur...
Sa fait plaisire de lire des si beau message ...je suis moi meme la petite fille de Bavon Mari Mari...je m apel Prescillia Siongo la fille de Elvis Siongo
Merci de nous aider à recupérer ce passé qui a fait de la RDC des années 70 le plus beau pays au monde. Nous étions angolais, congolais et Zairois a partagé la grandeur de cette nation.... Bavon Marie-Marie Siongo est un phénoméne, en plus de la guitare, comme son frère Franco, il savait composer des belles chansons...
The package gave us heart brocade wherever we were not allowed to dance because of our junior class in school. Time never wait for any man. It's merciless in keeping the moments of reckoning!! Dr. Ogeto International
Comme l'on peut bien s''en douter la presente version de la chanson Maseke Ya Meme est ici interpretee par l'Orchestre OK Jazz avec Maitre Franco a la guitare et au chant accompagne de Youlu Mabiala. Une sorte d'hommage ultime de Luambo Franco a son jeune frere Bavon Marie Marie qui a quitte ce monde dans une mort tragique et... comme predite par la victime elle-meme !
If i can get this beautiful music then i think i can sleep in peace at night while listening to those saxophone, i was very young by then i love this i say ooooooooh!!!! Bavon marie

Bavon Marie face so candidly, the vocals a bit trembling sure makes me plays the song now and then. 1972 up to now the song is still wonderful. oh R.I our great lengend !!!!!
Nostalgic and Legendary composition by Bavon Marie Marie Siongo brother to the late Rhumba Maestro Franco Luambo Luanzo Makiadi founder of the all time famous T.p.o.k Jazz band.
@Michael , the song you refer to about mkutano ya waganga ( meeting of witchdoctors ) is called KIPA KISANGAMENI and it was not done in honor of Bavon , Franco was just tired of the evil deeds of the sorcerers and asked them to come together and do something good for a change, you can hear Franco's anger in the song as he sings in his native language.....

I did not say Franco composed it, the name between brackets is the composer and Bavon did record it with Negro Succes, indeed. It's on the very album you see in the clip (African 360.023, 1970). It's Léon Bholen BOMBOLO, typography as on the sleeve, by the way. The three pics under him carry the names Alphonso, Samy and Gaspy. You wouldn't happen to know more about those, would you?
Thanks Aboubacar for uploading this song many years ago (and many others!). I love this song, but it is one of those that really confuses me to be honest. This version is clearly sang by Franco. But when people talk about Bavon and this song, they usually snidely try to bring Franco's hand into Bavon's death - whether through the sorcery referenced in the song or in other versions of the story, by indirectly causing the accident in which Bavon died (Bavon was supposedly love sick from Franco taking Bavon's girl). As a young lover of this music (and who is also invested in understanding the songs and their stories), I'm interested to hear your understanding or version of history (since it is clear many people have and believe their own versions). Personally, I struggle to see how Franco would sing such a masterpiece, which has ended up immortalizing his frérot, if Franco himself was the said villain in the song/story...
Lisanga means a gathering or meeting in Lingala and Banganga is a word for sorcerers/witches. Franco was therefore referring to himself and Tabu as the reigning music sorcerers. He was referring to sorcerers in a positive light.
Est-il possible d'avoir les paroles traduites en français de ce pur jus? C'est franchement dommage parce que si ça avait été le cas, depuis mon enfance, y a longtemps que je saurais déjà dire 2-3 truc dans cette langue que je trouve délicieuse à l'oreille, tellement magnifique. Comment se fait-il qu'un pays qui a donné naissance à tant de figures artistiques et influencé les pays alentours musicalement, comment un tel pays a-t-il pu finir avec l'actu qu'on lui connait? C'est sûr avec les richesses qu'il possède, il attire les convoitises les plus sombres. Je viens d'un autre pays d'Afrique francophone et je recherche des infos sur l'histoire de ces pays depuis la colonisation. Une idée d'un site où les trouver? Les pays d'Afrique n'ont qu'une cinquantaine d'années. 50 ans c'est presque le stade embryonnaire par rapport à d'autres qui emmagasinent des siècles d'organisation intérieure et de collaboration extérieure. Peu importe le temps qu'il nous reste sur cette terre condamnée par la pollution et le réchauffement climatique, je veux croire que le temps jouera en faveur de ce continent. Merci pour le partage.

sad song...in short,the song talks about a woman bewitched by her family.. i used to listen to this song when i was 6 or 7; i couldnt get the message but was seduced by the melody...rip bavon mary and franco
Never expect such songs in this generation...Pure Gold...wish I could reverse time...

C'est lui (bavon marie-marie) qui a créé le sébène en RDC ! Respect à ce grand guitariste !
11 years before i was born and i'm i here enjoying this ... music full of nostalgia
The trumpet behind the chorus is angelic, Bavon MM, will come with angels on the last day with his choir..Rongo Migori Kenya loves you ever.
The song reminds me of my late father Mzee Oguok,baba continue rip

How could GOD give you such a talent and take you back so early ??????? R I P Bavon.... we continue to love you ...

There are two songs of Bavon that nobody talks about it, but they seem to be the best ... OLINGI NINI? and WEEK-END BA PLAISIR YA KINSHASA ...
Arrghh, I put this on my favourites without listening to it.. This is the memorial version...Since it is Tabu Ley and Franco I cannot complain.
Really humbled Bavon MM and the group did justice to the song
Very nostalgic memories of the late KBC Radio presenter Billy Omalla.

Meilleur Solistes a cet époque
1) This family has a very bad heart
Sorcery has become an occupation
A young fellow like me
They’ve buried sheep’s horn in front of my compound
They’ve set my heart on fire
So that I won’t marry
2) What’s anger for, brothers
Because I don’t spend my money on them
They have removed my heart
And replaced it with that of a chicken
In order for me to become a beggar and date all men
3) Sorcerers also die
Even witchcraft also expire
It is better to kill me so that I can die
I’m tired, me, someone’s child
4) This family has a very bad heart
Sorcery has become an occupation
A young fellow like me
They’ve buried sheep’s horn in front of my compound
They’ve set my heart on fire
So that I won’t marry
5) What’s anger for, brothers
Because I don’t spend my money on them
They have removed my heart
And replaced it with that of a chicken
In order for me to become a beggar and date all men
6) Sorcery also dies
Even witchcraft also expire
It is better to kill me so that I can die
I’m tired, me, someone’s child
7) Wealth leave me alone
I’ve no money
Why fight
Sorcery is a bad thing
Even sorcerers die
This world belong to someone
8) I cry for my life
I’m not tired of this world
The world wants me dead
I’ve nothing to say
I’m waiting for my death
9) Wealth leave me alone
I’ve no money
Why fight
Sorcery is a bad thing
Even sorcerers die,
This world belong to someone
10) I cry for my life
I’m not tired of this world
The world wants me dead
I’ve nothing to say
Thanks for the lyrics...😊
In late 60's he was better than his brother franco.
