Description:
Formerly posted in two parts, now reposted in one piece_ Song in praise of not only his own tailor, but also the whole orchestra's_ Vocals & mi-solo guitar: Franco, vocals & animations: Ndombe Opetum and Wuta Mayi, vocals & percussion: Lola Chécain_ Other guitar players (besides Franco): my guess would be Nedule, aka Papa Noel "solo" (their terminology) (otherwise Gerry Dialungana), rhythm guitar: Gégé Mangaya, bass guitar: Mpudi Decca, batterie: Ntoya, percussion: Dessoin_ On cd, this song has been butchered, leaving the best part off_ This is the full vinyl version, 14 minutes minus 1 second long_ After the singing, we hear Franco's 5-minute guitar solo, which has a little interruption in it_ It seems to me the original recording went on for a few minutes more_ But this was the way Franco released it, in 1981, but I'm convinced the recording was at least a year (possibly two) old at the time_ ___
