backsleeve note;
“The kiri-kiri is a marvelous discovery of Docteur Nico, the
whole Congo is under the ascendancy of this new dance;
born by the contact of elements of the traditional music of
this country with tonalities and modern rhythms.
The creator genius of Docteur Nico comes out here with a
dazzling selfcontrol and warm verve; really one is taken away
by a festival of solos and rhythms, kiri-kiri is the resultant of
the soucouss, rumba and jerk.”
This album has also been released as Sonafric 50.003,
our copy on Ngoma has some traces of intensive play
but sounds more or less exceptable, listen..

Is there any connection between le Docteur Nico and Prince Nico? It seems unusual enough to find two recording artists with honorific modifiers, but Africa is a big place…..
