I was lucky enough to see Konono No.1 live in the summer of 2007 and have loved their album Congotronics since it's release, so imagine how happy I was to have a live album!
It's even better than Congotronics in that it captures the mindblowing raw energy of their live show perfectly. The frenetic power of this band live amazed me. An hour and half set and I think they only paused once or twice.
Huge great polyrhythmic loops and runaway beats had a field of thousands of people dancing in the sun nonstop.
This album is a glorious little momento of that wonderful experience. Get it. And everything else they've done!
