Album Reviews

Review: 

C 'est la Vie, with its wealth of melody (11 songs with 11 melodies) and a simplicity of treatment of voices and guitars, displays continuity with his first album while at the same time going forward to open up new worlds of music. Henri Dikongué is a rebel with a sensitive soul; his way of expressing himself is very personal, the fruit of passions, sorrow, love and revolt.. Henri sings with his heart, and his guitar gives rhythm to his melodies and emotions. Released in 1997.
