African Fiesta Orchestra Featuring Tabu Ley & Dr. Nico

This 45 is yet another offering from the Congo and features one of the most beautiful ballads I’ve posted thus far. The African Fiesta Orchestra, which claimed the mighty Tabu Ley (more on him later) and Dr. Nico among its ranks, were pioneers in the Soukous genre. In a most noticeable trend for this blog, I tend to favor the B-side, “Lolita Lolita,” with its minor-key guitar melody and wistful vocal styling. A true musical treasure.
