Title: Once Again Simaro Saves Music
Post by: Tata Nkiadi on June 02, 2014, 12:11
Just when I began to lose hope with the music coming out of Kinshasa these days, this man always delivers and saves the day...

Now if only they would release Pepe Ndombe's posthumous album, Tendresse, all will be well in the world.

I agree with you 100 percent. It is sad that we don't have good music in Africa but it is in general. Simaro is the man.

This album is remarkable. Few slow Rhumbas and more dancing. Dancing is what the genre is most famous for. The generique was well crafted, taking some of the greatest hits from OK Jazz and Bana OK along with an ode to Josky, taking 17 minutes of pure euphoria and nostalgia. Aside from Karmapa's latest album, this is the best album to come out this year in my opinion. Far way better than his last effort Salle D'attente

I wanted to get the digital download but realised I will not have the first track,this is nonsense. Why don't they release all the songs for digital download,what's the point of buying an incomplete album. This is what has caused me not to buy other albums I need by Doudou Copa(Menu) and Patrouille Des Stars(Kanga Nzoto) which each have a couple of songs or so not available as digital download so what's the point really,best to order full albums and wait for them in the post.

There are no sebenes in rhumba odemba,it's music for mature people(slow music) to listen to and dance slowly with a partner.

Yeah,the first song on the tracklist is only available as ''album only'' which means I can't have it on download so unless I order the actual CD.

I have just read the iTunes support information, when it says album only it means ''It means you need to purchase the whole album via iTunes to get that specific song.
It may or may not be on the actual CD in the stores.'' so let me buy all the albums I need now,yipee!!! ;D ;D
