For some reason we had this album in our home when I was youth. It is a Catholic Mass composed within the Bantu musical tradition, with no Western influences whatsoever. It dawned on me long ago, that there is much good music out there. But to like it it you have to hear it over and over. If the airwaves are controlled, then what you like is controlled. Culture grows and improves when it encounters other cultures, and in this case the Congolese got the better part of the deal.
