Associated Sounds: Pt 2 – Sweet Congo Singles


Following all the positive feedback from last month’s Congo seventies ASL singles post (get that last post here), I just had to make some time to prepare another instalment. Sixteen more tracks comprising 78 minutes of sweet early Congolese sounds.
 
Please accept this unusually short posting – life sometimes gets in the way of music. The important part of digitising and uploading is done. I have not had chance to photograph the labels and upload these. But, I think it is better to share the music even if I am unable to give you more information.

For more on the ASL label, and all labels East African – do consult Tim Clifford’s growing ‘webpedia’ – Kentanzavinyl .

  4. Alphonsine!!! What a track! I have searched for this one for long and now out of nowhere, it appears. Thank you so much. Probably you have Laurantine by the same band.
    Once more thank you.

  5. Thanks for all the great feedback good people - @anonymous - I unfortunately do not have the 'Laurantine' track - but I do have two other singles of Dewayon & L'Orchestre Cobantou, and a few other which I hope to make time to digitise when time allows
