29-jan-10 african and global beat Pt. 6 in a series looking at Bozi Boziana & Anti-Choc – one of the top Congolese groups of the 1980s & 90s. This week we reach the early 1990s with another new female singer – probably the finest female voice that Bozi launched in the group. We also pick up a couple of solo albums that were never released on cd – one from Fifi Mofude and one from Bits Bitsindou.
