Sam Mangwana et le Festival des Maquisards
african 360.031, 1971

Sam Mangwana, front

african 360.031, a-side

It took a while to finally find another missing album in the
‘African 360.000 series’. This is african 360.031, an lp by
none less than the great Sam Mangwana. It is getting
more and more difficult to find them, but today we’re
lucky. At the record fair in Utrecht last weekend I
finally found it, Sam Mangwana et le Festival des
Maquisards, a wonderful Congolese piece of
musical history. We’re being double lucky
because it is in excellent condition.
While recording I heard it first time
and I knew instantly, this is
going to be one of my
favourites..
