Musical Youtube updates of vintage African, West Indian, Oriental and others World Grooves from the 50s to the 90s every Wednesday & Sunday, feel free to subscribe to this channel to not miss any ! Following this former article (https://youtu.be/FkpRZNmG7p8), I'd like to share with "Loin Du Desespoir" ("Far from Despair" in French), an uplifting killer Afro Garage Soul Jerk Funk Organ from Democratic Republic of the Congo with fresh guitar riffs & raw grunt, taken from one of the numerous singles recorded in the 70s by the Congolese composer & singer Bovick Bondo Gala, backed here by the mythical band “Orchestre African Fiesta” founded in the early 60s by the legendary musicians Nicolas “Dr Nico” Kasanda & Tabu Ley Rochereau. This single was released on the mythical French record label "African" founded in 1966 and specialized in Congolese music releases from big & lesser known local figures from the 60s to the 70s era (mostly Rumba music, but including a few gems like that one !). One of the very few Congolese jerk tracks from that era, always a killer when I play it in club & my tropical DJ radio shows - Enjoy !
