Papa Noel - Cafe Noir album flac

That experience led to Noel becoming one of the major players in a Congolese rhumba revival in his home country, and led also to the Cuba-Congo musical summit meeting documented on this joyful, gorgeous album, Cafe Noir, The music is unbelievably danceable with ever being aggressively funky, or really, aggressively anything.

Papa Noel has delved into the archives and dusted off a selection of golden oldies, reviving a series of rumba classics on his latest album, Café noir, recorded in Havana. The veteran Congolese guitarist appears to be on a mission to remind young Cuban and Congolese musicians that rumba, their common heritage, is alive and well. I made my first recording as a solo guitarist with him back in 1957. And that’s Nico Jerimidis, the first music producer in Kinshasa!" Papa Noel is lost in the mists of time, totally and utterly absorbed as he pores over the photos in the sleeve notes to a rumba compilation.

Papa Noel (whose stage name comes from the fact he was born Antoine Nedule Monswet on Christmas day 1940) is a veteran of the golden age of Congolese music. In the 1940s and 50s Congolese rumba, until then performed traditionally on lokole log drum and sanza thumb piano was modernised by a group of pioneers. They transformed it by playing it on electric guitar, Latin congas and brass instruments.
