    I remember my father playing Franco’s songs all of my childhood every morning when we were taking Breakfast and also when he used to take us to road trips…every time I listen to Franco I just think of those good memories and my father, oh how I miss him dearly every day, Rest In Peace baba I love you forever and thank you so much for leaving behind such great memories 😢❤️❤️❤️

    Cette merveilleuse musique Congolaise est une référence en Afrique. Je me souviens, dans les années 70, mon Grand frère Philippe avait un transistor Nivico qui captait très bien radio Santa Isabel, la radio de Guinée Espagnole. C' était à Mèmlè, nous allions ensemble à notre pressoir à huile, le coeur léger, l' énergie débordante. Merci Franco, Merci Rochereau, Merci Kabassele , merci Nico, merci Lutumba Simaro, Merci Madilu, merci Malange, merci au Grand Dalienst....Merci à toutes ces mélodies géniales qui ont bercé mon enfance à Yaoundé et à MBEMNDJOCK.

      Et pour ma part, j'ai toujours considéré que l'Afrique noire est une et indivisible malheureusement morcelé par le diable. Même séparés et divisés par des limites et frontières artificielles, je considère que nous avons la même âme et partageons le même fond culturel et presque les mêmes traditions.
      Je me retrouve et m'identifie parfaitement dans vos propos magnifiquement exprimés. Je suis congolais, mon frère nous a donné deux nièces d'une mère ivoirienne belle comme la lune. Allez savoir !!!

      It's the music of Congo (originally From both Congo). Mostly of carabeen's music cames from Africa, like cuban's rhumba (Congo, Rd Congo or Angola, former Kingdom of Kongo) or Argentine and Uruguay 's Tango (cames from Nigeria). That's why it's seems similar like some south america's music.

    Cet album fut une série de compilation des titres à succès du DOYEN FRANCO, mon père en a obtenu quelques uns, dont j’ai eu la CHANCE d'avoir écouté quand j’ÉTAIS encore jeune...,La musique congolaise MODERNE est le PORTE FLAMBEAU de la musique D’AFRIQUE SUD SAHELIENNE car aux indépendances advenu , tout les orchestres de ces naissante voulaient jouer comme OK JAZZ, attraper LA GUITARE comme le faisait le DOYEN FRANCO, CHANTÉ EN LINGALA etc....Raison pour laquelle je peux dire sans risque de me tromper que LA RUMBA CONGOLAISE, ET CES CHANSONS ont UNIES CETTE AFRIQUE MORCELLÉES ET DIVISÉ des indépendances jusqu'à nos jours encore ! ! L’ UNESCO ne s’y est pas tromper....la musique congolaise NOUS APPARTIENT A TOUS AFRICAINS même si nous ne COMPRENONS PAS ce que disent les BELLES CHANSONS, nous pouvons FREDONNER L’AIR DE LA CHANSON OU SA MUSIQUE....J’en est pour exemple SAVON OMO de ROCHEREAU qui a fait sans le savoir peut être la PUBLICITÉ DE CE PRODUIT.
    Pour finir je voudrais dire de RENDRE HOMMAGE, HONNEUR, et d’être FIÈRE de savoir que de cet AFRIQUE, peu sortir des hommes et des femmes TALLENTUEUX ET VALEURS.... AFRIKA OYÉ.....OYééé ! !!,

    Congo just needs to reserve some space for Kenyans in their land. Our love for Congolese Rhumba music is unrivaled even though most of us don't understand the language we understand the music. If you take a walk in clubs across Kenya and homes Rhumba music will be highly represented especially during weekends when people are relaxing and having a good time.

    I was 18 years when Luambo with TP OK Jazz performed in 1973 at Amaan Stadium, Zanzibar the entrance was free for everybody! As usual in Zanzibar cultural wise is oriental but Luambo music was the exception and stadium was at full capacity at 18hrs waiting for mighty TP OK Jazz entertaining congolese music performance! For the first time I witnessed usage of wireless microphone by Franco Luambo himself performing bolero song B.S.K......we saw Sam Mangwana singing out a lot including then new songs the like of 'Djemelasi, monzo, azda..etc'....not to mention the superb stage show by 'Fwala' mesmerising dancers...namely ...Ekshofu, Tumba..etc it was the historical musical event ever! Courtesy of late Zanzibar President then Maalim Aboud Jumbe Mwinyi! RIP dear!

    it reminds me of the 80s in Zimbabwe still in the grip of independence euphoria and this song a rendition of it played by a congolese band the Real Sounds was an all time favourite of revellers at a place called Seven Miles Hotel now since turned into a pentecostal church. You should have seen those zimbabwean women shake their curvy hips to rhythm with abandon and gusto and the wiggling their waists with equal measure. Good gone old days.

I started listening to OK Jazz in 1966 (I was eleven years then) he inspired me even to play music although at the time I did not even know what he was singing about! Later I got to know that most successful congolese musicians were associated with Franco and his OK jazz. I take him as the most successful music enterprise in Africa.

    I used to listen to these songs in the afternoon on my way home from school in the 80's in Nigeria. I mostly hear them from tailor shops and hair salons. What a Nostalgic music.

    I fell in Love with rhumba in the early 70s because my Late brother Sudi Masibo played it all his free time. Now in my 50s and I am an avid fan of TP OK Jazz. I first them perform in Nairobi in 1983 when Kenya was celebrating 20 years of independence. Then in 1987 during all African Games in Nairobi. Then post Franco in 1992. OK Jazz all the way.

    Though I have This stuff and many more 🤔, but I can't skip such Music anywhere on the web 😱. They remind of our Kenyan pride VoK/KBC radio and my rumba fanatic late parents playing them on radio gram in early 70's onwards 😍. I love Zaïroes rumba, where to me Franco et TP OK JAZZ is second to none. We had great musicians come entrepreneur like the late Verckys Kiamangwana Mateta, but Franco was a music genius 😍. Am privileged to have almost all of his music about 60 hours on my phone and music system where even my children born and brought up in love TP OK JAZZ 😍. Luambo Makiadi Franco's memory will live forever 🙏.

    It was the years 2013-2015 when i was travelling by road all over eastern Tanzania, my driver brother had just one cassette tape - Orchestra Super Mazembe .. what songs - ilena, shauri yako and so on..that grew on me as we pasd by dusty roads, villages w playing children and big baobabs, with the eastern arc mountains in the background. This was the first time i heard the golden old congolese music. later in Morogoro, Dar and Zanzibar, i picked up many CDs from the streets and bars, like Sam Mangwana, Mlimani Park Ochestra, Independance cha cha.. and ...Franco with the TP OK Jazz ! As that music grew on me, i bnegan to appreciate that even in 2015 there were many bands in Tanzania that still played the old Congolese style music. Muziki nzuu kabisa cheezi sana!

Франко жил, Франко жив, Франко будет жить. всем добра и любви

    System era.....the greatest band to ever play music period!
