Album Reviews

Review: 

In contrast to many fellow Zaireans who moved to Paris, it was in Nairobi that Samba Mapangala, inspired by the guitar style and Benga rhythms of Kenya, developed his own brand of soukous.

Ripping guitars, a popping bass, hot horn riffs and the golden honeyed voice of Samba Mapangala - "Feet On Fire" was recorded in London and captures the vitality of East African dance music.
