Mario
1985
Ranked No. 2 in Congolese Rumba
Franco at his most withering, lecturing a kept man for eleven minutes over a guitar figure that never tires. The Sorcerer of the Guitar, and the band that dominated four decades.
Mokolo Nakokufa
1972
Ranked No. 4 in Congolese Rumba
A meditation on what happens the day he dies, delivered as a dance record. Franco's habit of putting the heaviest subject over the lightest rhythm.
