Docteur Nico was a the real guitar wizard. He was the greatest African guitarist. His death was a great lost not only to Zaire (Congo) but to the whole continent of Africa.
NICO et ROCHEREAU, c'étaient les deux monstres de la musique congolaise. Les deux piliers de L'AFRICAN DJAZZ, vous nous manquez énormément chers disparus. Vous demeurerez mes musiciens favoris éternellement. Reposez en PAIX auprès de notre Seigneur.
Dr Nico Kasanda was and forever will remain a guitar wizard, an originator and inventor of unique double pluck style. It is so unfortunate he died so young at 46 when Africa had suddenly been infested by a mysterious diseases that made people loose weight very fast and die. He died in 1985, Franco followed in 1989 and several other notable musicians. Let them continue resting in perfect peace.
@@RoadsandRoutesKenya in your original comments,you said that Dr Nico was an originator and inventors of unique double pluck style,and left that comment hanging! not saying whether in Africa or the World?
Merci pour ce film. C'est un grand souvenir pour nous les fanatiques d'African Fiesta. C'est un grand film. Notre Nico et NOtre Rocherau. Bofinga na bino etali biso te.
Visibly unwell but remained steadfast to his art and craft as a guitarist extraordinaire bringing joy to his multitudes of devoted fans. Forever rest in peace legend,.

I have been told LISANGA YA BANGANGA, the album featuring Ley, Franco and Mavatiku, means the gathering of wizards. I have always had a regretful appreciation of it, because Dr. Nico, the devil himself on the solo, did not make it. I watch his perfect readings of the instrumental flow of others in this song and I just have a teary eye, imagining how he could have read Luambo and Visi in the complete gathering of wizards! here, he manages to keep this song permanently at ecstacy!
Yes, Dr Nico looks very ill in this video. Even his playing of the guitar is not vintage Dr Nico, most likely because he had not plucked the strings for a long time due to illness. However, one can still see that the man was a guitar legend. RIP.
@mojawapo it's tshiluba the tongue of KASAI the people who live there they are BALUBA of Congo kinshasa they speak TSHILUBA the great man Dr Nico his congatulation Tabu ley and promis them to visite Kasai soon and Tabu Ley and wish long life for Afrisa and Tabu ley his friend sorry about my English I just try to answer you
Oui, il existe et j'ai déjà regardé ce concert en entier mais malheureusement, je ne le trouve plus sur la toile. Quel concert? Franchement, il n y avait que des grands noms derrière a l'occurence un certain damoiseau qui a joué le solo de Mazé.
Thank your WorldSrv. I was beginning to think there wasn't any footage of Dr Nico playing, although this is a reunion and he looks very ill. African Fiesta with Dr Nico were one of the best! Any chance of footage of Verckys and Orchestre Veve playing?!
@@ShaddyRaddyWorldMusic He was way above Franco in the 1960s and early 1970s. But for his taking a break from music (following the Belgian recording company that signed him on going bankrupt) in the 1970s, Franco would still have been beneath him. No Congolese musician of that era was his match in talent, brilliance, and recognition in or outside of Congo. The man was a genius, period.
@@mohamedmohamud3639 What's the matter with you? Are you suggesting that the Dr. Nico who was captured playing solo guitar live in this song was not the real Dr. Nico? Then you will start striving to convince us that the Tabu Ley who was introducing Dr. Nico in this video was a fake Tabu Ley?
@jm04151975 I am not sure what exactly killed this guitar virtuoso. However, Dr Nico was in poor health for quite some time, considering that he died in Brussels in 1985, about five years after this video was recorded.
You just flat out lied. Dr Nico was not sick for a long, he died a few weeks after he fell ill and was flown to Belgium. He died while on full musical come back. This video was shot in 1983 but he died in 1985, how is his death 5 years after the shooting of the video?
@oeokosko: As far as I know there is only a very short clip of Verckys & Veve in their heyday. If I remember correctly this has already been posted somewhere. The vocal 'core' of Veve went on as Trio Madjesi; I've posted a video of them with Afrisa.
Nikiwa darasa la 6 mwaka 1966 ( Boza Middle School) Dr. Nicolaus Kasanda alitembelea Tanzania kufanya maonyesho/maonesho ya muziki wa bendi yake ya African Fiesta Sukisa. Ama kweli mambo yalikuwa Moto. Tangia hapo hadi sasa nikiwa na miaka 67 nimekuwa mshabiki wa muziki wake. Uko wapi Hamida, Mimi niko Dar Tz. Ahsante.
Was he at the same age in the 1960s as he was in the 1980s? Does Tabu Ley look the same way in this video as he looked in the 1960s? How about Kwamy Munsi who's singing back up in the middle, did he look here as he looked in the 1960s? Why do some of you say dumb stuff?
He did not die of AIDS, you bushman! Stop spreading false rumors, will you? Doing so makes you seem stupid and primitive. What do gain from tarnishing the reputation of a man who died more than three decades ago?
What dispute did Tabu Ley have with Dr Nico? If you are referring to 1966, they had no dispute, the misunderstanding was between Nico and Izeidi. Even though Dr Nico was the most talented musician of the two, Tabu Ley was actually the most successful one, so whatever dispute you are talking about must have had no negative effect on his career. Nevertheless, I am more of a Dr Nico's fan than Tabu Ley's, I just said this just to set the record straight.
Dont think Dr Nico is actually playing on this, The close ups at the start give this away. He looks so frail! At least is voice hasnt gone as he proves a little later.
This was a live performance. If it was not Dr. Nico who was playing the solo guitar as you are implying, then who was playing it???? What makes you think it was not Nico???

The originator of double picking style of playing guitar was a black American jazz giutarist Wes Montgomery. Hiyo ndio habari!
@chebukosiwasike who started double picking in Africa???

I last saw this video back in 1983 and seeing it again here on TH-cam brings back a flood of memories. A real gem. Thanks a million.
Where did you see it? If you are kind enough please reply. And i am asking this 12 years after you wrote it 😁 are you there?

Bonjour
ce fut un grand moment de télévision. Je demanderais à la RTNC de diffuser ce show dans son intégralité. Merci d'avance
Oui, il existe et j'ai déjà regardé ce concert en entier mais malheureusement, je ne le trouve plus sur la toile. Quel concert? Franchement, il n y avait que des grands noms derrière a l'occurence un certain damoiseau qui a joué le solo de Mazé.
i love this
Maestros !!!! Respect !
Nico est trop foooooooooort des interventions très différentes RIP EL PROFESSOR

RIP...DR NICO....Legend of hawaiian guitar!
This is one of the greatest colobos of out times. RIP the Masters of Rhumba.. We miss you on instruments and stage.

Super artiste
J'ai toujours eu embarras de choix pour désigner un album.
Could someone give us the names of the musicians/instrumentalists who performed here. Please ...
He looked sick and this looks like his last concert before he passed
I find myself back here again
Maika Munan à la guitare rythmique, wow!!
No Dechaud is not in this video. It's Tabu Ley's orchestre Afrisa.

Any chance of footage of Verckys and Orchestre Veve playing?!

And now 2023 am on
Docteur Nico died of a syrose of liver
His brother and himself drank a lot of local alcohol.
He passed in 1985
wrong nico died sometimes in the 60's
Mohamed Mohamud + No, you are absolutely wrong! Dr Nico died in September 1985 in Brussels. Stop spreading false rumors.

Dr Nico died on 16/09/1985 !!
@WorldSrv, @bingwason Yes, I'm aware of that clip (from a film about Idi Amin). I was hoping for some more - a concert or a TV programme or something.
Beautiful but at the same time quite sad
@mrmozambique
According to Tabu Ley it is called "Resurrection"

Is it true the flamboyant and colourful guys who performed in the Idi Amin Documentary (by BBC) are Verckys and Orchestre Veve?
how i truly love their songs
Cyprian Mumia Can you give us a summed up interpretation of the song?
+Osaaji Mumia ,,,,,,,,yes they are.
Cyprian, a summative analysis of the song appears elsewhere in this thread of discussions
wher was Dr nico buried?
Hakika hapa Dr Nico kasanda siyo yule wa miaka ya sitini, hata uso wake hauna nuru kabisa! But why?
Hamida Fundi nadhani hapa ndio alipata nafuu kidogo ya kuumwa na Tabu Ley akaoma amchangamshe rafiki yake.

@bingwason Did Dr. Nico die of AIDS? He is my all time favorite guitarist. But there's very little information about him after he moved to Abidjan.
He did not die of AIDS, you bushman! Stop spreading false rumors, will you? Doing so makes you seem stupid and primitive. What do gain from tarnishing the reputation of a man who died more than three decades ago?
Nope. It was a liver ailment.
