Lisanga, which translates as “meeting”, appears to have been something of an African supergroup (weren’t they all?) Alas, the Africa - Force Unie Vol 1 album has not to date been followed by further volumes, while the cast list of performers on the record includes many luminaries of the African music scene who have featured on Peel playlists throughout the year such as Lucien Bokilo, Mav Cacharel and inevitably, Diblo Dibala. But, as Peel pointed out, even the great Diblo found himself overshadowed on the sleeve credits for this record. For while Dibala was credited with lead/solo guitar, Africa - Force Unie Vol 1 also included contributions from N’Gouma Lokito and Miguel Yamba on “Magic Guitar”. I don’t know how that is differentiated on the recording beyond saying that they ALL provide magic guitar.
