On my way back home i was listening to this concert and repeating some parts and that part from 27th minute to 28th completely got me distracted,the way kester would go freestyle  on various ways on choruses was insane
then i was like wait a minute i just drove past home :D :D :D :D
did it ever happen to any of you guys?
by the way for the anecdote this is the song which got jb in contact to the very original members of 4X4

Haha, I also have concert on mp3. I usually play the concert all day long, repeating the epic But Na Filet warmup, Tabu Ley's Asamba before the song you're referring to, and Sango Mabala Commission

Best Zenith ever, with Augy Lutula and Yannick Zénith also killing it along with dozen guitarists Kester had on stage :D

happend to me three times:  while listening to v12.. JB mpiana zenith  and  Double click of Fally( had it on repeat  on a rainy night) .. it funny that sometimes we get so deep into a song that we  just forget about everything or other priority happening on the side .    ;D ;D ;D

I once had this on the DVD player as we drove home from a trip, and as we got home my wife insisted that I pass the gate and drive round the block to the shopping centre for some groceries. when we got to the shaopping centre parking she would not leave the car as Mabala commision was playing.

Later she confessed she had no shopping to do but wanted to hear the rest of it..... ::)

Man what a song; whether the orginal, remix Coup du Monde, or version Zenith. One of those songs I can sing in my head from start to finish at any time

The first song he played at his emotional grand return at Stade de Martyr 1997 after years of exile in Europe because of his feud with Kongulu Mobutu. The whole stadium singing along with him; so moving (RIP).

One has to give Kester's Production crew credit for professionalism.  The sound quality of his Olympia and Zenith makes very good listening.

Anyone know who was that guitarist being introduced just before Ata Mipaka in this show?

He plays a mean one...

^ That's Safro "Man" Manzangi introduced to play solo on his song "Ata Mpiaka". An absolute legend in the early days of Victoria

Kester was a scientist when it came to the production of  lyrics, albums, and concerts. That's why nobody past or present will ever match his attention-to-detail

Thanks Matebu.

You are right, King Kester was  one in a million.

I wonder what happened to the Victoria Dream Team Dream Band after his demise. I read a few posts about Jolly Mubialai and later saw one of the singers auditioning for Werra....

Long story short, they do not accept Joly Mubiala as Victoria leader - just an opportunist. Thus, This is Me will never be released

Mopala is a leader of sorts of the functional "Victoria Eleison", but the pillar members - Auguy Lutula, Willy Ebondaki, Zozo Malaba, Tony Ambrosio, Mulos Cantos, Africa Mbonda are all gone. So effectively, the real Victoria died along with Kester (RIP)
