Tata Masamba - Ricardo Lemvo
Tata Masamba is de eerste CD van de Congolese muzikant Ricardo Lemvo & Makina Loca uit 1996, waarmee hij z`n naam vestigde. Heerlijke Afrikaans georienteerde salsa met fluit en tres-gitaar en wat soukous invloeden. Sommige nummers doen aan Juan Luis Guerra denken en andere aan Africando: er zijn slechtere voorbeelden denkbaar.

The Cuban-African pop music connection has been going strong almost since the first invasion of 78 rpm phonograph records into Africa. Lately, various Zairean musicians have delved back into the Cuban roots of soukous (formerly known in Africa as rumba) with brilliant results. But none have gone the route as seamlessly as transplanted Zairean vocalist Richard Lemvo, who assembles a killer salsa band in Los Angeles. In the manner of legendary Cuban bandleader Beny More, Lemvo does the mambo, cha-cha-cha, and rumba proud (More`s "Yiri Yiri Bon" closes this disc). Even better, he hits hard at soukous with such stellar Zairean guests as vocalists Sam Mangwana and Nyboma, superstar guitarist Syran M`Benza, and other luminaries. But it`s the songs that carry the weight on a great disc.
