You know I confirm Lofombo as the bassist ever I think its safe to say that and his discography is just crazy I didn't know he played Pile ou Face and his already played on Ferre's new album.
What albums have Lofombo played because maybe it might be him and know even knows ;D?
-
He's a good bassit but I don't know why leaders choose him over their own in studio.

He's unanimously known as the best bassist Congolese music has ever seen. The bassists of bands, out of respect, accepted him guest playing without malice. On top of that he's esteemed because of his humbleness.
In 90's, despite his fame, he preferred to live in Matonge and was very welcoming to fans and aspiring bassists (the ones found in bands today), often giving lessons.
Some of the best bass works ever in African music can be found in Empire Bakuba/Pepe albums of the mid-90's.
