The way they played sebene from 1:32 to 2:10 min


made me think about the music you would hear on the streets in Kinshasa in the night when walking close to bars. I think that I heard a similar sebene in an old BBC documentary.

It sounds melodious despite lacking the lead guitar

Yeah, it was great along with the bass-guitar. The generique he did with Alino Vimba, Coréen Polystar and Pathy Bass years later was also great.



Gatho Beevans was lucky to have his second album produced by Tamaris. Otherwise he would have remained a small artist known as upcoming star. The succes of this album brought him to several African countries.



Sometimes I regret that his rival Kool Matope and his little brother Guy Matope didn't get the chance to release an album under VEVE's label. It would have the taken the rivalerly between Gatho Beevans and Kool Matope to another level and brought the best of themselves.

Imagine if the song was done by Emeneya. I'm sure that he would years later make alot of noise on tv that he isn't scared of the Coupe Decale-revolution, because they associated his friend late Jacob Desvarieux of Kassav to copy his song
