- After the song 18:30 three interview clips with Ntesa Dalienst, recorded 15-10-1990 in Brussels. Three, because this particular song came back into the discussion three times that day (during an interview that lasted over five hours, that is).
One day, we should all gather together and say thank you to the people of Congo. They have shared such a precious gift; timeless music. Love and light from us here in Zimbabwe 🇿🇼
You have hit me hard man into tears. Thank you. Franco liveth. The People of Congo must assemble their angles and count them one by one. Africa will be happy.
I do not even know how many of our African brethren black in skin color still recognize themselves as African in this confused so called civilization of the malicious West.
Ahoy Congo!!!!!!!!!!!!
That music is so cool. Have been looking for the full version, here it is. Kama unampenda Franco hit a like here
Nampenda sana
One of the best hit by TPOk jazz. Very cool music. Good for long distance driving
Who is here still listening to this lovely music... it's still fresh 2021
I was 3 then, we had this record. This is pure rumba, we'll listen to it til the end of time. Who's here with me to end this horrible year.
Are you still there,is this one horrible to you too 😢😢😢😢.
I was also 3😂
Here I'm from Ivory Coast 🇨🇮
i was 6 months n i remember everythin
You people from DRC are a gift to the whole of the world and not Africa alone. I like your music and there is nothing I can do about it! Please you people out there from the DRC who are musicians and in South Africa, get in touch with me. I love you ALL! LONG LIVE FRANCO!!!
Thanks Thomas. I'm proud to be from DRC.
I grew up with Congolese music. My dad loved it to the core. He was a tailor contracted to do school uniforms, so he would work through the night. From the age of 10 I would spin these records for him after the only Radio Uganda station shut for the day! Then he would tune radio Bukavu or others on medium wave and listen till day break.
Very true
Exactly, especially 🇰🇪 kenya, we are rhumba addicts
❤
The guitar, the voices, I don't even need the translation. How can such beautiful music not be spiritual and building to the heart!
Sad that the composer (Franco) was detained for it.claimed that the song touched on women negatively!!
@@ronorichard7174 No please. The explicit lyrics were in song Jacky
Pure therapy is an understatement.
Translation please. The man who nicknamed Kisumu mboka
One of the most brilliant pieces of musical art of all time. Superb craftsmanship from the all conquering TPOK Jazz.Memories of my brother Patrick Nyamhunga, the legendary broadcaster on the then Radio One Zimbabwe who truly loved this set piece of a song.
The greatest song of my childhood. Just amazing even after 40 years still not changing...
Non .. still the music to listen to in 2023
The duo never died , you will still conquer the world till the end that's my prophecy waaaaau beautiful voices ,my favorite hit of all rhumba music , legends sing with angels ,
There will never be a more talented artist nor a more beautiful song..
Quel étais votre magie ,, la chanson qui peut totaliser 40ans toujours avec un grand succès ,,elle se joue chaque jour sur toutes les chaînes des radios comme si elle étais sortie aujourd'hui
C'est justement ce qu'on appelle le talent !
Les talentueux restent légendaires, notre pays en compte un grand nombre et celà qui fait la grandeur de notre culture !
Franco Luambo Makiadi featuring Madilu Système & Ok Jazz que la jeunesse congolaise et africaine puisse prendre des "cours par correspondance" comme le disait le King Kester Emeneya de son vivant avec l'un des chefs-d'oeuvre musical de la RDCongo. Merci au Tout Puissant de nous avoir donné des artistes de ce calibre, de nos jours le constat est AMER.
Thanks DRC for Franco Luambo and Madilu System. Good stuff👍
Listening to this music @2022 it feels like it was composed today ! The organisation of sound and words is like music of 50th century non closer to this would come any time sooner..
1/12/2024 je l'écoute encore ❤😊
The song that won Madilu Franco's admiration & respect. Who wouldn't? Madilu's voice is exceptional.
This is my best of all OK jazz songs! I've nothing else to say, rest in peace legends.😔
Mam your day and
Frederick The first 5months the
Thank you. Very entertaining. Iam proud of them
Thanks Child of Africa. You make me a proud African. I think I would wake up angry if I were to dream of being non-African! Thanks to our music like Franco!!! now he even enables us to share the good things that Africa has always been meant for. Viva AFRICA!!! God bless you.
I REMBER THE VERY FIRST TIME FRANCO TOURED KENYA FOR THE KENYA'S 20 YEARS ANNIVERSSARY IN 1983 , THIS LONG PLAY WAS HIS OWN PERSONAL GIFT THAT HE GAVE ME IN MOMBASA AND IAM PROUD TO HAVE BEEN ASSOCIATED WITH ALL HIS TWO TOURS OF 1983 AND THE FAMOUS 21 SHOWS KENYA TOUR IN 1986
Awesome.
jamhuri day 1983
You're very lucky man..He was great guy!
My father loved Franco, had so many of his records. In my youth I preferred other Congolese beats. I went to Kenya. Kenyans especially from Luo land loved, actually adored Franco's music. At that time I was more interested in the faster dance Congolese beats. Now I can't stop listening to Franco. Especially Franco and Tabuley.
Good to have met him back then...God bless you
Franco and Madilu were a rare combination of fine vocalists, par ezcellence. Can listen to their music all day and all night.
Very very True.
This album - Frein A Main, 5 Ans Ya Fabrice and Non is Francos pure magic at play with auto-reverse cassette . A long drive from the village demands a one stop over to release oneself ( short call) , then take the steering or else the sweetness goes - Luambo still speaketh.
Soothing...man the rythmic arrangements just blows me away. Luambo and madilu forever..it may take a century before Africa finds another FRANCO...R.I.P
Franco was exceptional and his songs will continue living on beyond generations
This is just a classic! the song reminds me of the good old days, which we greatly miss. it touches my soul.
It was the likes of my dad's generation that had real fun with real music! I wish to listen to this with my Dad to see how it makes him feel!
I can remember the very first time I heard African music on the radio in NYC. It was in the late 1970's for 2 hours every Thursday night on WKCR-FM, the Columbia University radio station. At the time it was the only African music program on the air and the first time I heard the music I was hooked. I could hear the great Franco RIP, Madilu RIP and all the other great artists that come from the mother country. Really great stuff
Its May 2019 nani azali awa ....nalingi nzembo oyo mingi .niliamka asubuhi just to listen to it and teach my wife some few words.
Davie Mosh Mbote na yo Davie naza awa, Im french and try to learn lingala & swahili listening to wonderful congolese and congolese-inspired music from east africa. Peace, toza elengo, tuko pamoja
11th Nov 2024 I'm still here.
Ça me rappelle tout simplement mon enfance avec mes parents,tu restes le meilleur
Chapeau à toi Franco
I listened to this song what it was released. I liked it and continued liking it to this day. Soothing, etc.
This man and Madilu will be remembered all the time I was a young man by then we used to enjoy
.....Music flowing smoothly like the giant river Congo, without vituko! Always sweet to listen or dance to...
Reminds me my late parents who left me when I was just 5 yrs old. 😭😭😭
Take heart
Such a masterpiece. Soul-soothing music.
Thanks DRC for producing such a LEGEND alongside other greats. Good stuff👍
Very sweet piece of music ! The voice Is fresh and clear. Thank you for this gift DRC !!
Even though he's gone the song remains to be so sweet nostalgic
Non,!non ! Non''''foumban au Cameroun dit non a la mort.franco franco tu n'est pas mort...nous l'écouteront toujours et toujours... Merci....r'i'p
Très belle mélodie. Une chanson qui dénonce les maux dans les ménages kinois. Chapeau aux artistes et RIP à Madilu System et Luambo Franco.
I should have lived during Franco's time!! I really miss this great talented artist.R.I.P Luambo.
Great musician of all times

Not too late, listen as you're listening now!
Le talent plus la compétence ce du luambo le grand maître ,,quel bon son quel message
Le Grand maître Franco l'inégalable
Quand le talent et la compétence se rencontrent ça donne du Franco Luambo Makiadi. Ça c'est de la musique comme le pays savait en faire.
Oh le grand maître Franco,tu as été vraiment le grand maître ! Toujours inoubliable!
A lyrical wizard, the greatest African maestro that ever lived.
Le Duo FRANCO -MADILU est ici phénoménal .......Quelle complicité! style simple et percutant.......
Every time I listen to this track, it creates an ambiance similar to an aura of a bride.
TPOK Jazz was so professional offers a cross generation social education. God Bless them!!!!!!
We can't have another Grand Master ( Franco) He is in the music. Rip luambo madilu simario opetum etc we ll always keep listening to ur music
Truly this kind ofmusic matures with age!!!

George Orido For more than 30yrs,I searched in vain to know the translation of this song.Thanks a million Sir for the translation.I can pay you by Mpesa if you don't mind to translate for me Lingala songs by TP OK Jazz via Post Office mail.Is that ok Sir ?
Thanks for the translation
Great piece of art
Hypnotizing jinx. Franco's voice is commanding. Dr. Ogeto International
all time lovely, soft musica
Imagine 38 years now and still drills ,real rhumba
Great work Grand master
Fabulous music of 80's. Rumba nite days
J'adore a mourire ce morceau de Luambo Makiadi.
Le Grand LUAMBO. Paix à son âme
Yes. Le Grand Maitre Luambo Luanzo Makiadi with orchestra TPOK jazz
I was std three at Mnazi Pr School north of Lushoto Tanzania, real this song remind me far away back the song proveking those sweet memory, I took Yarabi Salama from Dar to Tanga and Shengena(Fresh Nundu) from Tanga to Mnazi.
Musically this is perhaps the most beautiful composition of his career. One can quarrel with its protracted lenght, and certainly with the subject matter, but the music itself floats a lovely, lazy Rhumba full of subtle twists and turns. Building on a simple guitar riff that encompasses just eleven notes. Franco arranges the supporting cast - a delicate saxophone chorus, his own authoritative bark, and the lyrical tenor of Madilu Bialu - to near perfection. The words of Lingala tumble in graceful symphony, and when Franco and Madilu join their voices in melodious call and response progression - the effect is positively thrilling. Franco never studied music I wonder how he got this right.
Talent is never practiced nor studied, it's in in inbuilt, up to the user to use it right.
@@Thuon_ That arrangement is typically based on a musical score with notes on staff and laid on a a musical sheets. You are not born with that. That's the reason we have Universities like Berkeley, Juilliard and Yale. This is the only track that was musically balanced. Also note Franco didn't play lead guitar on that track. It was Gerry Dialiungana. Talent is not studied music is
@@masoudeid4259 So which music college or university did these TP OK Jazz guitarists attend? It was inborn talent which just needed nurturing. Gerry Dialungana, Nedule Nono, Dizzy Mandjeku, Thierry Mantuika, Michelino Mavatiku, Lutumba Ndomanueno, Gege Mangaya, Petite Pierre, Makosso Kindudi, Mpudi Deca, Flavien Makabi etc
@@ANDAREJO I am not against the idea talent is nurtured. I'm marvelling the craftsmanship the arrangement of the song equally balanced and writable with a myriad of notes laid symetrically on a music sheet by a Great musician who never knew how to read or write music. I interviewed Franco in 1973 and attested to that. Then Madilu in 1989 on National Radio Tanzania. These guys just had a knack of doing it. How they did it only God knows. Have you discerned the whole track encompasses only 11 notes? Somebody must have done the math
@@masoudeid4259 I get you Sir. You're blessed to have met these legends in person. Remember that Franco started playing "guitar 🎸 at the age of 10
Pure and good music; simple and short.
A world-class duo!
great music of all times RIP BOTH OF YOU

Timeless... simply magic.
Merci beaucoup pour cette chanson !!! kel souvenir
I FIRST LISTENED TO THIS MUSIC WHEN I WAS IN HIGH SCHOOL IN 1984 AND HAS STUCK IN ME FOR THESE MANY YEARS. MAY GOD REST HIS SOUL IN ETERNAL PEACE.
Love this music, can be equated to a really good food!
Ceci est une musique qui peut émouvoir le sourd.
Makes me yearn for mo n mo. Talk of unsatiable lv fr muzik.
Super Madilu voice!!!
A lyrical wizard, the greatest African maestro that ever lived
Death stole from us a great man,the song was released in 1983 and up-to-date is still hot🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥 .
This guy should have lived very many years .... For juniors like us to see and hear his works
I love his music. He didn't deserve to die
On the contrary only 57 yrs... very unfortunate!

This music of Franco remind me some way back in 1980's when I was leaving in Kileleshwa boarding matatu route no 48 going up to Lavingtone green passing through Westlands,the music was so good to hear.
Are you still living in Nairobi?
@@scorestoday No,am now resident in rural area.
Real life, no noise! So cool and sweet 👍,
Surely he was and remains the King of African music..... your legacy will continue to shine on Franco Luambo Lunazo Makiady R.I.P
Definitely not the king of African music
Franco was not only the king of Africa music, but also a father of African music.
King of African rumba for sure!!
Bravo le grand maître franco et le grand nidja madilu system Paix à vous âmes
tout simplement magnifique!!!
Hi, With all due respect to Madilu (R.I.P.) with his impeccable track record (no pun intented) , I can't immortalize him in the same way as Luambo Makiambi aka Franco. Believe me, if Franco lived even a 5 years more, he would have still been the MAIN influence for Africa composers. This story-tellying, political satire, commentary, combined with good, actually excellent backing music is RARE! Even in other genres/cultures.
I disagree my friend. Madilu is smooth as butter. Franco without Madilu is like Batman without Robin.
@@diambo4life Not really. Each played a distinctive role in the band. But Franco was the nucleus and engine of the band not forgetting that he was the founder. So they are not on the same level by any standards. Madilu was primarily a singer with just a few compositions while in TP OK JAZZ. Where as Luambo was a composer, singer, guitar wizard besides being President and band leader
You are right, Malik. Madilu was a great singer, a very good composer at that. Franco was a genius. No comparison
Good song to listen from Nairobi Kenya
Libala o libala...One of my Favourites
Great people, I have read all your comments here and they have added value to this world cup composition
My best rhumba ever..rest in peace legends
Franco will remain a legend forever.
franco na madillu walikuwa juu sana
this are music of yester years franco is singing about a wedding God bless congo
Just cool....great harmony
What do i say? I am in a bus on my way home and it is providing great company..really sweet music
I love this.beautiful .
Grand maître Lwambo Franco,toujours égal à lui-même !
