Rest in Peace.
I will never forget the interview he made after the departure from Quartier Latin, saying that Koffi forced him to come with a blonde haircut. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=inGtWlseig4
It was so weird to see him singing along those youngsters Koffi recruited.

This year can not end soon enough!!
Nzaya Nzayadio was a bastion of Orchestre Lipua Lipua in the 70's
Together with Nyboma they set East Africa alight with hit after hit and made the music llfe very vibrant.
RIP Legend Nzaya.
WE will miss you music.

You are right Brother, Until he got on stage.
Here he is in his youth with Lipua Lipua :

The Solo singer was Canta Nyboma ( Nyboma Mwandido) and I think Nzaya was the second voice
The Sax was Mbuta Benazoo
The rythm was Vata Mombasa
and backing Vocals of Lusuamo Aspro
And of course you had Kilola...
Music like this Is rare nowadays, which makes it all the sadder for the loss...

This has hit me so hard because I was a big fan of this singer. His voice was something special.
MwanaMokili, I must correct you. That song Distingue, Nyboma DOES NOT sing at all. In fact, Nyboma had his own band already called Les Kamale when that song came out.
Nzaya Nzayadio sounded very similar to Pepe Kalle. Listen to Mbondo and Matoba, you will know what I mean.
Rest in Peace Nzaya Nzayadio.

Thanks for the correction.
The tenor singer here sure sounded like Nyboma to me.
I am not sure of the time lines of the distingue song, so I will take your note.
Lipua Lipua sure was a hit machine and there were big following in East Africa with camps of Lipua Lipua, camps of Kiam , camps of Bella Bella and Later, Les Kamale.
We would meet as youth and recite the songs (With little or no undertsanding of the words!) and compare which sebene was more 'fire', which guitarist was better and admire the horns of Kiamungwana and Mbuta Benazoo ...
Them days are surely gone...

When Nzaya Nzayadio joined the tenor singer was Kilola Salaï he lives in Abidjan.
