Hello, how are you, I know you, I knew you...
Yes, hello how are you all, who were wondering what happened with Mangue Music. Well I was very, very busy with many, many other things. Always keeping in the back of my mind to return here and post some good music, if I had the time and a good oportunity.
Well that oportunity happened at a flea markwet where I found a very strange CD, with very little info about it's contents. So I asked the seller, and he didn't have a clue. Therefore I asked if I could listen to it, he said he didn't have a player there, but I could just take it and have it for free.
I liked his generousness, as the tekst on the disc "Franco Op Slag van Maandag, KRO 1988"; had given me the idea that it might be an interesting and may be special CD.
Well IT IS!!!! It's a radioshow broadcasted sometime in 1988 on Dutch KRO radio, and it has two parts:
- An almost half hour Congo Special
- A more than half hour recording of FRANCO live 1984.Jan.24 in Amsterdam
- CONGO Special 1988
- 1.Pablo Porthos - Madeleina [1981]
- 2.Bibi Den's Tshibayi - The "Best" Ambience [1982/84]
- 3.Joseph Kabasselle - El Que Siembra Su Maïz [1950s]
- 4.Rochereau Et Franco - Kabassele In Memoriam [1983]
- FRANCO live 1984.Jan.24 in the Melkweg in Amsterdam
During my absence blogger/google has changed a lot concerning inserting images, I tried several ways, without success, so now no pictures in the post [but don't worry, all I've found are in the download...]
But I still have some links for you to add.info about Franco:
- a lot of audio by one of his biggest fans at worldservice
- an old blog with a lot of info at Franco et TPOK Jazz Restored -
- an interesting article about Franco in The Journal of Music
