Popis - CONGO REVOLUTION [VINYL]:
'REVOLUTIONARY AND EVOLUTIONARY SOUNDS FROM THE TWO CONGOS 1955-62' - This compilation looks at the explosion of music that came out of the Congo in the years leading up to independence in 1960. Congolese rumba, a wild combination of African, jazz and Latin influences, created future stars of its now legendary creators - Franco, Grand Kalle, Tabu Ley, Dr. Nico, Papa Wemba - and all feature here in their ground-breaking early groups such as O.K. Jazz, Brazzos, Rock-A-Mambo, African Jazz and The Beguen Band. This expanded release includes an extensive text explaining the evolution of the music and history of the two Congos and how music, politics and popular culture intersected at the point of independence from the Congos' European colonisers - Belgium and France - through songs such as 'Vive Patrice Lumumba' and 'MNC Uhuru', which celebrated the Congolese independence leader prior to his political assassination. Also included are the stunning images of the Congolese photographer Jean Depara, who documented the Congo's vibrant nightlife in the period 1955-65 as well as being the official photographer for the Congolese superstar artist Franco up until his death in 1989. Depara also documents the rise of the Bills (Congolese teenagers who dressed as cowboys) and sharp-suited évolués (who later gave rise to the fashion-conscious phenomenon of the Congolese 'Sapeurs'). These images are reproduced in collaboration with Revue Noire in France.
