Here's a rip of a very nice record lent by Roady. I'm not familiar with this kind of Congolese music, which seems to be from before the rumba and soukous times. I like it very much.

After so many months I finally had a pleasant combination of time and functional equipment so I managed to get a few things ready to post before I drive to Iran on Friday...
