I hope that this video goes viral. Because videos of Emeneya during his prime (1982-1988) are rare. Most videos are of the post Mboka-Mboka period and when he was already in his  40s.  I can see a dark Djudjuchet, Makolin le Géant, Safro Manzangi, Mabusele and Auguy Lutula. It's crazy to think that they prepared the song Manhattan just at Emeneya's home in Bandal, only to think how the great the end product was

I really wonder how the uploader managed to find this video. I hope that to see more interviews/videos of Kester Emeneya and Papa Wemba from this period. It's a shame that our country doesn't have something like INA, which you have a France, that has archives of old documentaries, interviews, concerts, etc.
