The Mostly Congo Case of the Night at Club Safari
We turn back to Africa this week with another case of the Night at Club Safari, my showcase for Afro-Latin and Afro-Pop sounds from West Africa.
Today's show focuses mostly on The Congo, with appearances from Angola, Zambia, and even the tiny island nation of Comoros. We will kick off with some folksy, old-timey tracks from The Congo: deeply charming material to start. We move on to some classic Congolese Rumba before we dip down into a few sultry African Boleros.
The second hour picks up with some acoustic folksy sounds from The Congo, including the immense rarity of a highlife track by Congolese powerhouse Franco and his OK Jazz. That caught my ear!
We drift around with like-minded sounds from other countries before returning to The Congo for some early soukouss and even some rock steady sounds. Just a taste of the magical guitar of Dr Nico before the end of the show.
