Marcory Gasoil – Zitany Neil, 1988

,


In the cover photo, Zitany Neil, all smiles, pays tribute to the sape in a matching multi-piece suit to great effect. In 1988, the Congolese singer, now based in Côte d’Ivoire, took African dancefloors by storm with what was to be the hit of his life, Marcory Gasoil. Seven breathtaking minutes, led by soukous references Lokassa Ya Mbongo, Awilo Longomba, Dally Kimoko etc. And the rest of the album is just as good.
