Lukani -one of the gems of the "the Golden Era of Congolese music" stretching from the 1940s to the early 1990s. I remember growing up in Racecourse Estate Kariakor Nairobi in the 70s and early 80s on this great musical diet!
Thank you Sam Anyuru for this post. I love the music even though I don`t understand the Congolese language. The saxophone players were wonderful. I think the Congolese musicians are the best guitarists in Africa.
Veve was a band fronted by Verkys Kiamwangwana, who also supported other groups like Lipua Lipua, Kiam, etc. Lukani, to the best of my knowledge, was composed by Tusevos, who was member of Veve and the same group played the song. It is distictly Veve with not an iota of Lipua Lipua in it. All one has to do is listen to Veve songs and compare them to Lipua Lipua songs: there is a huge difference.
I 've been looking for "Enguduka" for a long while. Nobody in my surroundings seems to have the hit. I'll keep on looking and when I get it, I'll post it. It took me 14 yrs to bump into someone with "Lukani"
This song played in the back of my mind again so I came back.👌🏽👌🏽
